Dear members,
Below you’ll find an ever-growing list of spots that were added to the site this month. The paint just dried at some of the addresses, while others have been added because you wanted some tips in those destinations. This month we are sharing new recommendations in Melbourne, Gent, Rotterdam, Tokyo, Brussels, Den Haag, France, New York Italy, Lisbon, Mexico and Madrid.
Enjoy your new month, warm wishes, Pauline
