The Alternative Guide

www.thealternativeguide.com Every time I travel to a new city I make a list of unusual places, quirky stores, speciality coffee shops, dark museums, independent eateries, one-off street art, diy record stores and any other off the beaten track places I can manage to find. I put my website together to provide an alternative lens on some of the major cities across the world, encourage support for local independents and share my black book of favourite places to visit. Hopefully it will inspire you to stray from the usual tourist path and at the same time provide a comprehensive guide for fellow off-beat adventurers when travelling to a new city.
