The nature of the Balkans is raw and powerful. Sunlit rocky coastlines inspire either blending architecture with nature or making nature part of the architecture itself. When I first visited the Balkans, I created a similar project for the metaverse—stone floors, cliffs, and an endless horizon above the sea instead of walls. Seeing this hotel, I felt a connection with its architectural approach—embracing and harnessing nature’s ability to heal, calm, and restore. ACRO Wellness Suites. Ag. Pelagia, Crete, Greece

Seriously, a more expanded intro - like a pinned post, but picked by your readers. Cool

I love those moments when you come across a photo of an interior and can’t tell if it’s an AI render or a real place. Most of the time it’s just digital art — but when, after some digging, you realize it actually exists, it’s such a thrill. One of those mind-blowing spaces is the Inspire Entertainment Resort in Seoul — basically an entire city of interactive experiences under one roof. It features Korea’s largest interactive media art exhibition themed around space, with immersive rooms that throw you into alien jungles or the glowing core of a planet. And then there’s a 150-meter indoor “street” with media facades and a media ceiling — where the roof above you starts to crumble like an ancient temple, floods with water, and giant fish swim right over your head. I got chills just watching the video — experiencing it in person must be unreal. 📍 South Korea, Incheon, Jung-gu, 127

But there are two problems here: 1. On social media, people often don’t express themselves—they curate personas. If we extract data from these platforms, we’ll get not the real person, but their aspirational self—a heavily "edited" version. 2. Most content is just ritualistic phrases, memes, bland jokes, and reactive replies (I’d guess ~80% of my own content falls into this category.) Genuine thoughts, emotions, and doubts are rare. Even if we preserve it all, post-filtering we’d end up with a profile so oversimplified it borders on distortion.

It got me thinking — we’re living in a unique time with incredible possibilities. For thousands of years, humans have tried to immortalize themselves — to leave a trace. Most did this through children, but memories of who they were faded within a few generations. Take my family. I have photos of my great-grandparents, but no journals. Everything I know is just how my grandmother remembered them. The generation before that? Nothing. Only a few people made it into history — writers, scientists, etc. We might know what they did, but rarely who they really were. Now, with social media, everything’s changed. We’re constantly creating content — public and private. If preserved and processed, it could form a digital replica. An AI version of someone, built from their own words. Imagine: your grandkids log in, share what they’re going through — and learn you went through the same. And how you dealt with it. We live in a great time where anyone with internet access is already leaving a trace.

A few days ago in French class, I learned the word Brasserie. And you know how when someone keeps repeating a new word, people tease them like “ah, just learned that one, huh?” — yep, that’s me now. Brasserie again 😄 This time, I stumbled upon a Parisian brasserie with a playful design, right in the heart of the creative world of the late 19th–early 20th century — the Latin Quarter. 📍6 Cr du Commerce Saint-André, Paris

A taste of Paris in the heart of Bergen 🇫🇷 Brasserie Chérie isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a full-on show. Think vintage French circus vibes: velvet, gold, floral details… the kind of atmosphere you just want to dive into. And on the stage? French cuisine with a modern twist, made from fresh local Norwegian ingredients. Seasonal, creative, rooted in tradition — and cooked with serious love. 📍 skostredet 14, Bergen

Thanks for the rec, that was a great documentary! Lately I've been digging into the whole fast climate change situation, and the outlook isn't exactly cheerful. I knew almost nothing about nuclear energy before, but now I’m starting to think maybe there’s still a chance for a comfortable life and some kind of balance in the ecosystem.

I just found the perfect excuse to book a train ticket to Busan 😄 Busan Cinema Center looks like something straight out of a sci-fi movie — a massive floating roof with shimmering LED lights and an open-air cinema. Impressive during the day, and a full-on light show at night. 📍 120 Suyeonggangbyeon-daero, Haeundae-gu, Busan, South Korea

That's honestly a real superpower I wish I had — being able to calmly say no to things I could do, and choose to go deeper instead of wider.

MORI Digital Art Museum is not just a museum—it's a whole digital universe created by the art collective teamLab. There are no boundaries between artworks here. Projections "flow" across the walls, floors, and even visitors, while objects can react to movement. This is a place where you don't just observe art—you become a part of it. For all lovers of futuristic design, interactive installations, and unique visual effects 😍 📍 Azabudai Hills Garden Plaza B, Minato-ku, Tokyo

Finally finished my third Harari book—21 Lessons for the 21st Century. Solid read about the challenges humanity is facing. Harari, a historian, dives into different areas of progress and (to a lesser extent) tries to project them into the future. No clear predictions or step-by-step guides here. Instead, it’s packed with insights that make you think and draw your own conclusions. What stood out to me: -Creativity & innovation are key in a world that’s changing fast. -There’s no such thing as free info—you either pay for it, or someone profits from your attention. If it influences your decisions, double-check it. Who should read it? 1. If you’re curious about the future—helpful for career moves, investing, and education. 2. Parents who want a glimpse of the world their kids will live in. 3. Anyone who values critical thinking—because honestly, that’s a must for everyone. Have you read this book?

I love art installations in nature and urban environments because they have the power to pull us out of our routine and make us see the world around us in a new way. 📍 Samseon Mountain. South Korea Photograph: Yongbaek Lee

Let’s zip over to the opposite coast of the U.S.—Miami, home to an innovative science center that combines a planetarium, an aquarium, and exhibition spaces all under one roof. The star of the show is the massive 'Gulf Stream' aquarium, shaped like an upside-down cone. The bottom features a circular glass window, letting visitors watch marine life from below, creating a fully immersive experience. 📍 Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science, 1101 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL.
