Living in Rome, you can't escape the Disneyland of Catholicism everywhere. I lived next to Vatican and became obsessed with all the merch you can buy such as glow in the dark virgin mary or shot glasses with the pope effigy. An everyday sacred and profane experience. My personal favorite is to shop underwear in the nuns clothing section...

People know that I buy a lot of my stuff online, especially since almost everything I purchase is resale, second-hand, or vintage to use in my work. But I have a secret love for second-hand retail store displays. I have a giant Croc, Vans slip-on, Jansport backpack, and more. I get excited and inspired by them. I love that they're so massive, but they were probably made exactly like standard production pieces. It's also a childhood thing for me, and having them brings that part of my youth back to life.

Worth the pilgrimage for a retail experience a lot of us once took for granted

I’ve been pretty much obsessed Liberty since their collab with Target when I was a kid. I’ve always enjoyed going to these sort of legendary department stores when traveling to bigger cities but there’s something extra special about this one. So many are in these beautiful historic buildings, but these interiors have been renovated so many times they just feel like your average mall. Not Liberty. This store is so beautiful and filled with so many treasures. I could look at their printed fabrics forever. Not to mention they have their own bookshop!

Best tip I ever received was how to cook Eggs Blue Monday : boil the water, throw your eggs in, play Blue Monday from New Order. When the songs stops, your eggs are cooked to perfection. And you get to listen to Blue Monday to make your day better.

They are so fresh and cute, her voice is lovely and it makes you feel teleported in the 90s. There's a full album of them and it's like better than listening to a Podcast.

Nina (Bar Italia) made fitness videos for a Project called Fitness Povero. It's just her doing workouts, in her bedroom with the most oneiric ambiant music that she composed herself. Wholesome content.
