Tricks of the Trade

Whereas I'd like to think of myself as reasonably decent looking, even my mum peed in her pants laughing when asked if she thought I was hot. "But you're such a nice young man, darling." So when I had men and women flirting with me, shamelessly, as in an AXE commercial, then I knew that something was up.

"Yeah, the place is full of prostitutes," my mate told me. And apparently it's not the only place. More and more people - men and women alike; locals as well as foreigners - are reportedly turning to selling themselves to make ends meet.

So with few groups hit harder by the crisis than architects, you wouldn't be surprised if studios were to offer more than just remodeling services in the bedroom. But while this particular association of architects will cater to your fetishes, one-on-one or in groups, it's not for that class of services.

No, Artchitectours offers tours that can customised to your personal interests, be it Modernist relics, private homes or pancake houses. Revisit Barcelona's architectural treasures in the company of experts.

If this catches on, then I suspect that we'll soon have tours of car factories and construction sites on offer, too.

Thrillist Whenever we're over in the Big Apple, it seems such a shame that there isn't someone like us helping out: a little guiding voice to everything that's going on in town. Which is why we were so pleased to discover Thrillist.

White Wash Blazing infernos, burglaries, even broken legs, and you know who to call. But who on Earth do you turn to when the city's entire public transport system suffers a chilly coronary?
