At Stenzhorn, every spectacular jewellery creation is given the personal touch by a team of skilled artisans working entirely under the roof of the brand’s own atelier in Boppard, Germany. They lavish all the care and attention on their jewels that you’d expect from a family-owned firm, founded in the town on the banks of the Rhine River in 1979.

I started my first trip to Peru in the south at over 2,000 metres above sea level. Peru’s second-most populous city, Arequipa – nicknamed the White City for its striking buildings made from sillar, a white volcanic rock – looks like a city frozen in time.

“Washington has the Smithsonian, London has the British Museum, but Parramatta has the Powerhouse.” So declared New South Wales Premier Chris Minns at the museum’s opening on November 7, in a comment crafted more for applause than proportion. Parramatta is the heart of Sydney’s fast-growing west, about 25km (15.5 miles) from the city centre, and until now has had no major state cultural institution.

Dominic Fike confirmed he is a father in an interview with music discovery platform and blog Pigeons & Planes in April.
