Rock’n’Roll isn’t dead—it just moved to Hamtramck! At least that’s what it seems like after checking out all the goings-on in this “city-within-a-city” near Detroit, Michigan. The lively music venues, happening art and theater scene, Polish food and culture, and hip shops filled with vintage clothing and cool, if not always useful, stuff make Hamtramck a fabulous place to be. Check it out!

Melrose is well known for the chic chicks cliché, but walking around these surprisingly friendly streets we found out that the spiritual way leads to less tips and that you can find almost everything that you want in Melrose except a famous skeleton.

Oxford, Mississippi is described as a fine, small, southern town but there is definitely something that makes it stand out from other fine, small, southern towns: it’s the home of William Faulkner’s tomb, not only a great destination for literary tourism but also for the most bohemian expressions of Oxford’s alcohol-fueled youth. Music, food, friends, books, and booze? What more could you ask for?

Los Angeles is a city where everybody shines. Let’s visit a small area of town where you’ll find the most exclusive clothing stores and the pimpest ostrich shoes you could ever dream of! (We’ll forgive the erroneous reference to the 2006 NBA Champion Lakers. Shaq went to Miami, remember guys?)

Tango has its roots in Argentina, but today this dance of love and passion can be found worldwide. Few places outside of Buenos Aires embrace the close embrace like San Francisco, California. On the street, San Franciscans demand their personal space, but at the milonga, distance falls away like the sun setting on the Golden Gate Bridge. Let’s drop in and see if we can pick up a few steps.
