My loves! Yes im back with another travel vlog lol but I also thought id include a sort of ‘guide to’ NY!
This was my first time in New York and it was honestly everything I expected and more! I was lucky enough to experience the real NYC way by staying with family in Brooklyn and travelling by subway EVERYWHERE! We were also super blessed with the weather for March as we had sun pretty much everyday and it wasn’t any colder than England.

Miscellaneous
- A weeks unlimited metro card is $33 – Also download Citymapper to your phone and it’s just like using TFL
- Be prepared to add tax and a tip to the bill total
- If you’re planning to go out, out – use instagram to find a promoter
- If sightseeing, plan beforehand! Most places can be grouped together dependant on area
- Like anywhere, if someone seems crazy just avoid eye contact especially on the subway
These are just the places and experience I personally had and there is so, so much more to do out there! I plan to go back, next year possibly, so please drop anywhere you think I need to go in the comments.
