Writer and photographer Diana McClure took her first trip when she was 2, to Haiti. Since then she has touched down in multiple countries in North America, Central America, the Caribbean and Europe. Some of these trips were taken too far back to remember. Nevertheless, she’s traveled by foot, car, bus, train, courier flight, first class, on frequent flier miles, cash, credit, or whatever, in order to satisfy her wanderlust. When she’s not on the road you’ll find her on travel excursions in her home city.

Currently, Ms. McClure is Founder and Creative Director of Cultureserve, a global art & culture news website. She holds a BA from Columbia University, an MA from The New School for Social Research and is based in Brooklyn, New York. We’re excited to have Diana on the team. Her posts will surely inspire, so stay tuned.

Put art everywhere. That’s what we say. Why not? As we travel to various cities, the best destinations fuse art, functionality and public space in unusual and thoughtful ways. That’s why when we came across these pictures of Stockholm’s Underground, we had to share them with you. At the intersection of modern and prehistoric, they’ve created a cool underground experience. Being both inspiring and refreshing, we imagine the atmosphere makes the daily commute a bit more enjoyable.

A new product arrived at the wejetset store – Behance Action Pads! We’re really excited about this product. Over the last few weeks we interviewed people about what modern travel means to them. The resounding concern was life / time management. The concept of being effective at many levels in many places is overwhelming. Whether it’s planning a trip, or figuring out how to make the next meeting mean something, everyone raised the issue as a top concern.

Well, if you’re anything like us, every once in a while you get stuck in the “idea-phase” of a project or task. And as always, the elephant in the room is, “How do we put this into action?” Whether it’s overcoming unknown challenges, fears or other intangibles, just doing whatever it is usually remedies the problem. The team at Behance created a line of products that’ll assist you in looking at ideas and developing actionable steps to make them happen – the true goal of effective time management. If you like David Allen or LifeHacker, you’ll enjoy what Behance is offering.

Recently wejetset headed to Antwerp for a couple days. Prior to our departure we turned to our favorite websites for suggestions. Cool Hunting wrote a piece about the various fashion destinations among Belgium’s quietly loud city, Antwerp. We’ve never seen a place say so much with such subtly.

Check out Cool Hunting’s suggestions: “Let’s bypass the Antwerp Six introduction, as one needn’t be a fashion historian to know that this city was built on fashion. Designers come out of Belgium with a certain confidence and willingness to take risks like a child from wonderfully supportive parents. Two full meandering days in this small city is enough to get a taste of the smorgasbord of local shop options Antwerp has to offer: from well-organized vintage to recently-graduated designer startup boutiques to established heavy-hitters of Belgian descent.”
