How is it possible that this was my first time to New York!? I mean....how? Luckily, my dear friend Linday moved there and was able to help me save mucho bucks by letting me shack up with her in her glamorous Upper East Side apartment! Friends are so great, right? We did it ALL....purchasing the City Pass, we were able to get into The Met, Rockerfeller Center, The Empire State Building, The Statue of Liberty + Ellis Island, and the 9/11 Memorial. Aren't you just exhausted thinking about it? Well....it was WORTH EVERY PENNY. New York is INCREDIBLE. It truly is a magical, romantic city that literally never sleeps. Street food was on point, biking around Central Park was the stuff of movie-making, and the sights.....well....you'll see. I had a true moment of glee standing on top of The Empire State Building - truly one of my most favorite buildings of all time. Everyone should experience New York in the fall. How lucky we are to live in/visit a city that holds so much history, art, demographics, and LOVE. Concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there's nothing you can't do. I want to be a part of it!
