Second volume of my Groove series brings back the festival season (yey!). For me last summer was perfect to try the Off Sonar parties in Barcelona and Sacred Ground in a very old former farm located close to Berlin, in the German country side (100% of the pictures). Both small and cozy and quite far from the mainstream, huge festival scenes of Dutch, British or American kind. I'm quite sure this is by far more enjoyable, less crowded more intimate and a place where you can for sure meet like minded music lovers and have fun with your friends. We sure did!
With so many options, no matter where you live, make sure your festival season brings you the most joy together with your friends and you're making the most of it. Here's a small selection of my favories, few of which I will for sure attend! See you there. Click on the name for more info and tickets.

I decided to start a curated selection of favorite shots around Berlin - a collection of photos from different places, different seasons, different moods and vibes.
Behind all of these shots there was always a group of friends, being happy, enjoying life, with good music, grooving around. And then every now and then there's a little moment where you hardly pick your phone up just to make sure you'll have it forever recorded in small illuminated dots on a screen.

A collection of some of the favorites pictures I took in Barcelona, during different trips - last December and Off Sonar this summer. It really doesn't matter if summer or winter Barcelona never disappoints.
Few tips: go and rent an Airbnb to get the most of the experience, the easiest way to live almost like a local. Historical buildings in key location also have their perks - immensely beautiful and close to the action.
This was our choice in Plaça Reial, a bit loud though but worth it. Walk, walk, walk. Walk everywhere and go off the main streets. Try Foursquare or apps like to find the best food - eat like a local. Don't think too much and just enjoy it! :)

Just got back from Dubai the other week (more on that soon) and while I was excited for some warm weather I can't enjoy more the temperatures in Berlin. Turns out I'm a spring / autumn kind of person but I guess I knew that already through the all black outfit choices.
I'm a big fan of dressing simple, and by simple I mean monochrome basics, while adding some pieces here and there that give the overall look some personality. Like hats I can't stop buying or jewelry I can't stop wearing. Or like the new addition on my accessories shelve the wood watch, really a conversation starter (no, I mean, like really).
Made out of maple wood, self-winding automatic and designed for people who don't just have somewhere to be but they have somewhere to go this little guy will be on my wrist in the cold season. Get yours here.
