Denver

One of the most iconic venues in the country. The sound is amazing and the atmosphere is one of a kind.

Red Rocks Amphitheater

A historic black neighbourhood in the city that has undergone a transformation over the last decade. Welton Street Cafe is a soul food staple!

The Rockies stadium is a landmark is the city. The teams are always up and down success wise, but it’s always a good time.


Coors Field

Still one of the best museums I’ve ever been to. I don't think I realised how good we had it growing up.

Nature and Science Museum

This zoo is a decent drive outside of Denver, but the fact that it's nestled right in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains creates a really dope experience. 

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

My favourite fast food burger. The Big Daddy bacon burger defined my teenage years, it's great for a late night drunken meal.

Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard

This is the mall all the ballers go to in the city, it's got all the high-end brands.

Switzerland

It’s great for beginners, a beautiful place with incredible scenery. There’s hiking and skiing, and it’s a gateway to the Jungfrau region, which is home to a famous mountain. It’s honestly an exceptional area to visit.

Grindelwald

The après-ski here is fun, and it's close, which is a plus. The Bernese Oberland is just an hour and a half away at most, making it super convenient. There are also great spas—I haven’t tried many, but I’ve heard good things.

Adelboden

I went there two months ago. It’s so vast, with so many different slopes and ski lifts. The food is also important! My favourite is this alpine macaroni, which is mac and cheese done the Swiss way with apple mousse. I love it.

Graubünden

There's a different vibe in the French part of Switzerland; people are different. Wherever you go in Switzerland, the German side, the French side, or the Italian side, there's a different vibe. You just feel like every time you’re in a different country to be honest!

Crans-Montana

Where all the fancy things happen. The rich and the famous go here. So, if you’re looking for those bougie parties, go to St Moritz, but go to Aldoborden for something local and chilled.

Amman

Hands down the best shawerma in Amman in my opinion. Kept extremely simple with just meat, sumac onions, tomatoes and their signature tahini sauce. It is borderline magical how effectively these sandwiches keep you wanting more and coming back to get it. At 1.25 JD (£1.42) for a regular and 1.75 JD (£2) for a large, between which the difference is the amount of meat rather than the size of the sandwich, you really can’t go wrong.

Shawerma Reem

Open 24 hours a day, this spot on Basman Street in downtown Amman serving up amazing grills is our go-to spot for a late (or extra late post-night out) dinner. It’s a big four floor restaurant but I’d always recommend sitting at the top floor for nice views of the street. Staff are super friendly, the atmosphere is amazing, food is inexpensive and they serve alcohol. We’ve taken countless artists to this spot and it has become a staple in the scene. Big tip is to go for an assortment of their amazing salads before moving onto the meats.

Al-Kitkat

One of the oldest falafel spots in Amman, Abu Mahjoob is the embodiment of a neighbourhood eatery. It’s a staple of Jabal Al Luweibdeh, one of the most vibrant and culturally rich areas in Amman, making it the perfect addition to your schedule while wandering the beautiful streets of the must visit neighbourhood.

Abu Mahjoob

Al-Thawaq is a no-frills sandwich shop that serves classic home-style sandwiches. However, the magic lies in the bread, the preparation and the sandwich selection. They prepare the simple home-style sandwiches in a way that completely elevates them without compromising their homely simplicity. The menu consists of everything from everyday staples like halloum, labaneh and zeit w za’atar, to more hardcore classics like spleen, tongue and marrow (which are a must try if you’re slightly adventurous).

Al-Thawaq

Foron Rex is an artisanal bakery that makes some of the best bread in Amman. What I go there for, however, are the sandwiches. They use their outstanding bread to make equally outstanding sandwiches using 100 percent local products and produce. My personal favourites are the double decker (their take on a club sandwich with locally produced mortadella and beef bacon sandwiched in their gorgeous milk and butter toast) and the roast beef baguette or focaccia with horseradish sauce. Rex is also a great spot to buy delicious local products like cured meats from Jolly Man, artisanal jams and marmalades from Namliyeh; Tuneib’s amazing pickles, chilli sauces and tapenades. Half a baguette will set you back around four JD (£4.50) which is a bit pricier than what you’d expect for sandwiches in Amman, but it’s well worth it.

Foron Rex

If you visit Amman without trying knafeh you’d be missing out on one of the most amazing desserts in the world (I might be a bit biased). The best place for me to get knafeh in Amman, albeit a mainstream spot, is Habiba downtown near the famous Hashem Restaurant. The place and the atmosphere around it is magnetising. It’s a small shop, barely fitting five to 10 people, so you order your knafeh (125 grams of knafeh khishneh for me) and eat it outside while it’s hot.

Habibah

Tamreyet Omar is the perfect spot to hit after enjoying a sandwich (or two) from Reem; located just across the street and serving up one of the simplest yet mouthwatering desserts around. As the name suggests, the hole-in-the-wall spot specialises in tamreyat – an extremely light and fluffy fried dough dusted with powdered sugar – but it also serves awwamat and asabea’a zaynab. A single temreyeh will set you back 0.3 JD while the bigger tamreyeh extra will set you back 0.5 JD which makes it one of the cheapest desserts in town too.

Tamreyet Omar

What better way to start your morning than with fresh hot manaqeesh, and the best spot to get them in Amman in my opinion is Sabaho. While they do have a big selection of manaqeesh, I personally just go for either the classic akkawi cheese or zeit w za’atar, which isn’t to say that the other menu items aren’t just as good (the basterma is killer).

Sabaho 

Floriana is a pizza shop next to my house in Um Uthaina. While their pizzas are good, it’s their sandwiches – particularly the Zinger – that keeps me going back. They use the same pizza dough to make the flatbread for the sandwiches and it’s baked in their pizza over fresh to order, which makes it extremely light, airy and slightly crispy in all the right places. After the bread is baked, the fillings are spread onto it before it’s wrapped and put inside the woodfired oven one more time to warm it up just enough to slightly burn the roof of your mouth on the first bite, but it’s so good that you end up finishing it before it even slightly cools down.

Floriana

This sweets shop is where you can get the absolute best halawat al jubon in Amman. It’s definitely a must visit if you have a sweet tooth and you want to try one of the most delicious traditional desserts in Amman. It’s also located in downtown so it’s a perfect stop to stop by for a quick, sweet snack while you explore the city.

Sallora Al-Shahba

Shams El Balad has been my go-to for a drink for years. Its stunning architecture, timeless decorations and vibrant, welcoming atmosphere makes it hard not to turn into a regular. While it serves some of the best food in Amman using all locally sourced ingredients, the star of the show, to me, is their Gin O’tra cocktail: a gin-based cocktail with cucumber juice and sweet scented geranium. Depending on when you go during the day, Shams El Balad can serve as the perfect spot for serenity while you have some coffee or a nice cocktail, but also as a great night out with nicely curated music and an unparalleled atmosphere. The place also occasionally hosts some interesting events like the Honest Natural Wine Fair and the Palestine Supper Club. You can also find a selection of products by local designers that you can buy there!

Shams El Balad

Manara has been a recent favourite of mine when it comes to coffee shops. In addition to their nice coffee, they have an outstanding view of the city on their top floor. Its location in Jabal Luweibdeh makes it a hub for creatives and young people to come and work there, or just catch up over a nice cup of coffee. You can also check out their ever-changing selection of handmade goods by local designers which are often sold to raise funds for charity.

Manara

This fresh juice spot is located right next to Al-Thawwaq (big tip on the Al-Thawwaq/Beit El-Rumman combo). They serve what must be at least 20 different combinations of fresh fruit juice smoothies and they give you the option to custom make whatever combo you want. The selection of combos changes throughout the year to accommodate for what’s in season but it’s almost a guarantee that whatever you get from there is gonna be extremely refreshing and hit every spot it needs to hit.

My favourite record shop, the list of records I need from this place is LONG, stuff for sampling + stuff you just need in the collection. You’ll find most of records you already knew you wanted & even more you’ve never seen before. The best Black Music is sold in Sounds of The Universe, in my humble opinion.

Ibiza

I have to confess that in the last years I felt quite connected with the frequency and vibration of certain crystals. I have been meditating and using them for protection and healing. There is this magical place called 'Crystal Mountain' which is a hub for health, healing and happiness. It is an experimental, high vibrational temple for sharing and expressing yourself. The centre also reunites a group of experts and alternative healers creating a vortex for deep transformation and realisation. If you are already familiar with that world you will absolutely love it, if you feel the urge to try it, pay a visit, do not doubt it.

Crystal Mountain

One of the most yummy and local places on the island. This front beach restaurant is found in the town of Talamanca, ten minutes away from the old town and it's run by the most fun and charismatic lady. She makes the place unique and always comes and takes care of the clients with a smile on her face but you can't forget about their fresh food. Definitely a place to visit.

Hostal Talamanca 

If you need to go shopping and need something glamorous and unique you have to stop by Annie's. The English fashion icon and entrepreneur has the best selection of new and vintage clothing and accessories inside the Old Town of Ibiza. I recommend going at night before having dinner at one of the restaurants in the area or while you eat an ice cream and walk around the beautiful streets.

Annie's Ibiza

You might have never heard of it but don't worry, I didn't hear of it before I arrived on the island. Primal is the funniest workout I have ever tried, it connects with your inner child and it is more like a game than a workout which makes it entertaining and feels short although it's a full intense hour.

Paying a visit to the small island of Formentera is a must. Either book a boat with a group of people and spend the day sailing or take a 30 minute boat and spend a couple of days driving around the tiny island of white sand and turquoise waters. If Ibiza gets a little too much this is the best getaway.

Easily the best place in the Aburrá Valley to eat typical Medellín food. It’s hardcore, watch out.

If you are looking for proper local heavy sweaty ‘bellaqueo’, this is paradise. My favorite reggaeton club in town. Berlin has Berghain, but Medellín has Perro Negro.

In addition to having a fresh program, movies, installations, and restaurants, hanging around the Medellín Modern Art Museum is pure bliss.

A small taste of Colombia's vast biodiversity. Don't miss out on the ‘Mariposario’. It is located right next to the aquarium (also don’t miss there the Amazonas king: the Pirarucú) and the planetarium.

Jardín Botánico (Botanical Garden)

As a teenager, football was my whole life and it allowed me to get out of my neighborhood and discover the city in depth. I have a lot of memories of this field, especially when it was made of sand and not synthetic grass. If you like the game and want to get out of the ordinary-tourist common places, here you will find high football matches to watch while feeling Medellín’s real heat.

Cancha Brasilia in Aranjuez

This is one of the few electronic music clubs left in the city. There we have had memorable parties, especially the Medellin Rave Society — Insurgentes showcase back in 2018. Calle 9+1 resists in spite of the fact that we have a government that does not allocate any kind of aid to the arts and culture sector in the midst of the pandemic.

Liverpool

Don’t watch the Trip Advisor reviews, Festival Gardens is still a spot in the summertime. Tucked away off the main trail of Otterspool Promenade, the gardens have gone a bit unloved in the last few years. The trees and plants may be reclaiming the land in parts but it all adds to the slightly mysterious vibe of the place.

Festival Gardens

It may not be in Liverpool but most in this part of the world visit at least once a year. Hilbre Island is only accessible by foot when the tide’s out and takes around an hour to reach by walking across the sand. There’s always some cool wildlife to run into when you’re out there and you can even spot the seals bobbing their heads up from the sea in the summer months.

We’re looking to raise £35,000 to build our new, permanent home out of two shipping containers at The Tapestry in Liverpool’s Fabric District. The pandemic may have slowed things down but there is no doubt that the team at Phase One have big plans for the future!
