There’s a sound New Yorkers know by heart: the screech of steel wheels echoing through century-old tunnels, scaring thousands of rats that live beneath the platforms. The NYC subway isn’t pretty. It’s not clean. It’s often loud - and sometimes a little creepy. But it’s also the sound of movement: millions commuting, dreaming, surviving. New York is a city of grit and resilience, where people from every corner of the world squeeze into tight spaces with big dreams and endless possibilities. And the subway is just as diverse, tough, and vibrant as the city it serves. And it’s more than a transit system - it’s the city’s beating heart.

This is the 2nd part of the article about why Reykjavik stole my heart. Here are the link to the Part 1.

Iceland is one of the most captivating countries I’ve ever visited, and its vibrant capital, Reykjavik - home to over half the nation’s population - punches far above its weight. Looking back, it feels almost embarrassing that I originally planned to spend just a few hours in Reykjavik. By sheer luck, my daughter and I finished our epic Laugavegur hike a few days early, which gave us two full days in the city instead. And I didn’t regret a single minute. In this article, I’ll share nine things that surprised and fascinated me about this beautiful, underrated, very European city.

Inspired by Stefan Draschan's work "Coincidences at Museums," where the author produced brilliant and thought-provoking photographs from accidental matches of visitors’ attire and artwork, I decided to take my camera to Broad Museum in Los Angeles and try to produce something similar. I hope you enjoy this album.

This and other famous quotes from Salvador Dali, my lifelong favourite artist, make you smirk. Still, they very accurately describe how well aware he was of his own genius: "I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait" or "At the age of six I wanted to be a cook. At seven I wanted to be Napoleon. And my ambition has been growing steadily ever since". In the summer of 2018, I was extremely grateful to visit The Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida. This museum hosts the second-largest collection of his finest artwork in the world. Do you, too, want to get a quick glimpse?
