They lead us on a winding path through each city using humourous anecdotes, and verses to business insights and local life, with beautifully inspiring photography and exceptional design. The places choosen are deeply connected to the quintessence of local life, which have genuinely touched the hearts of this talented couple on their search for the ultimate in style, integrity and passion.
“We believe in the inspiration of individuality, the bright light of diversity, the magic in endless possibilities from the seed of a great idea. We admire the courage of those who are ready to risk and applaud those who want to be different.” comments Veronika Blomgren

With the unique approach of including business categories as well as a range of budgets, they are ultimately, an extensive collection of places, personally chosen by husband and wife team Veronika and Nikola for their unique aesthetical value.
Nikola Kostic comments “In our journeys, we are looking for the soul of the cities we visit. We listen to the drums of each city's heartbeat, to the flutes of it's streets and we hear the symphony that each city is playing. The places we choose are essential instruments in this orchestra.”
Veronika and Nikola have been travelling around the world for the last two years. The couple believe that their professions coupled with their eye for all things beautiful manifests them to be able to define, what is truly fine in each city they visit.
