Amsterdam

There’s far more to Amsterdam than coffeeshops and peep shows: houseboats bob in picturesque canals, narrow 17th-century manses line the streets, and forward-thinking shops and restaurants beckon. Bring your walking shoes; this city is best navigated on foot or by bike.

Seattle

The lush green land of Sub Pop, tech giants, Mount Rainier, and the infamous Seattle Freeze. Yes, it rains here.

Prague

Where locals cling to coffee cups and navigate the cobblestone streets in flip-flops with socks (yeah, it’s a thing).

Lisbon

She might be Europe's second-oldest capital city, but Lisbon’s a cradle-robber when it comes to young creatives.
