"My favourite record shop is...
Rough Trade East, because it's
iconic and I keep on spotting
Homostash posters there.
My favourite clothes shop is…
I am not a big fan of shopping for
clothes, but I prefer boutiques and
vintage shops when I have to.
My favourite club is…
De Trut in Amsterdam, because all
the profits go to a good cause and
you are not allowed to use your
mobile which makes the nights
more social. I know Berghain in
Berlin also operate a no photos/
phone policy too.
My favourite club night is…
My own night, Homostash!
If I could DJ with any celebrity
(musical or non musical) it would
be…
Bjork please.
The song that reminds me most of
London is…
'Why Does It Always Rain On Me?'
by Travis. I heard it on a bus the
first time I visited London 16 years
ago.
When I'm in a bar I drink…
Polish vodka.
My favourite pub/bar is…
Bloc Bar and the bar at Dalston
Superstore!
My favourite restaurant is…
Little Georgia Cafe near
Haggerston Park. I love Georgian
food and culture!
If I want a little peace and quiet
when I'm in London...
I sit on my balcony and watch the
city.
The best area of London is…
Clerkenwell, and that's why I live
there. It's central but yet close
to the East vibe that I love. I can
also walk or take the bus almost
everywhere which is great as I am
not a big fan of the tube.
If I could change one thing about
London…
I would put it by the sea and would
make the climate a bit warmer. But
that's actually two things.
One thing everyone should do in
London is…
Come to party at Homostash! "
