I had the opportunity to go to New York this past weekend for the first time ever. I initially wasn't sure if I was brave enough to go by myself but couldn't pass that up.
Friday night I stayed in the lower east side, wandered around by myself, found my first slice of NY pizza then had a few drinks and took a cab to Brooklyn. Going over the Williamsburg bridge felt kind of surreal to me. I slept for maybe 2 hours then spent Saturday afternoon walking to Union Square, The Chrysler and Empire State Buildings. I spent that night in the amazing Ace hotel and was too tired and cozy to even leave my room. Waking up at 6am to make the Washington>Chicago>Calgary connections felt pretty horrible. The trip went by way too fast but I know I'll be back. What are your NY reccommendations?
XOXO
