Culturists / Events / Music / SpainHow a good party should be: Good parties have to be badly organized, the guests should have to pay a lot for entrance, the DJs should get put on a podium for glory and there they should play a lot of same-sounding crap music over and over again.

Accommodation / Architecture / Culturists / Greece / StreetartWhile staying in Thessaloniki we spend a lot of time on going out, having delicious meals and enjoying the vibrant nightlife.

Actually there are three of them. The Colors Hotels are old remodeled buildings with artworks of local sprayers. Again a magic meeting, it could have been fate or it just happened by accident, but of course we made an appointment for a visit. A few days later I met Christina at the building in 13 Tzimski Street, she showed me the place and we recorded an informative interview, as well we made a little movie about the place and some of the artistic rooms.
