The Americas, Travel · 18 July 2012

Postcards from New York

What are you looking at? View on the Brooklyn Bridge by evening – Central Park with a touch of skyline – Coney Island Wonder Wheel- High Line art – Skyline view after just leaving the port – Skyline from afar – Central Park –  Brooklyn Botanical: entrance to the rose garden – Times Square… ofcourse.
(When I wrote this…) We just arrived in Washington and as K is unpacking his suitcase I could not leave it to steal his macbook for a moment. Gosh, am I happy be out of New York. Maybe happy is not the right word, “relieved” would be better. I have a hard time dealing with big crowds and as we were walking squeezing our way through places like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Times Square, there were often times I just couldn’t handle the heat and crowd anymore and would just breakdown. Crossing the island of Manhattan in three digit temperatures probably didn’t help much either, haha. I enjoyed the quiteness of the Staten Island mall and certain parts of Central Park, the fresh Starbucks coffees, impressive skyline views and airconditioned metros.And I don’t think I have to say how much fun we had shopping. I scored some great deals at J.Crew, Francesca’s and Old Navy that I hope to show to you all soon. I also got a gorgeous Madewell dress that I am going to hide in my closet for a few more months. I want to save it for fall as the jewel and mustard tones are perfect to wear that time of year. After our five days in New York it’s only right to say that I won’t have to do much more (or maybe any) shopping to get my wardrobe fall-proof… .

I can’t wait to see what Washington has in store for us. We are now off to do a little late afternoon exploring around the mall area. I’ll share the pictures and stories on DC later on. Hope you guys enjoyed the photos! Have a nice da-ha-haaaay! Just a Bon Jovi moment.

    So glad you had fun shopping though, can't wait to see your finds! 🙂

    My husband and I plan to one day make a trip to New York. There's no specific thing I really want to see just check out the atmosphere and rush of everything. Though I think I'd be more like you and not do so well with the crowds and heat.
    Your photos are lovely! 🙂

    I didn't realize you had a trip to the US planned! I totally hear you … NYC in the summer is MISERABLE. In the fall/winter however, it's magical. 🙂 I hope you have a safe trip and enjoy Washington! It won't be any cooler, but hopefully it will be a little less crowded for you. Great pics!

    Have a great time in D.C.! I interned there at C-SPAN this spring, and it was a great place to be…so much less stressful than NYC! P.S., cute blog!

    Sounds like you had fun, though the crowds seem a trial. Can't even imagine the crowds….

    Wow, your photos are so gorgeous, you've definitely captured the city well.

    I suppose the crowds can feel overwhelming if you aren't used to them, and sometimes can be downright annoying, but it's still a pretty great city.

    Glad you at least managed to get in some shopping!

    Your photographs are simply gorgeous! I can't wait to visit New York someday. Hopefully soon since I recently moved on 3 hours away. What's a quick road trip up there?

    I think I would have the same problem with the crowds in new york – I get very anxious in large crowds.

The past ten years have been a hot mess. Getting two degrees, our first appartment, my first job, moving 40km away from home, our first house, a burnout, a dog, a break-up, a tinder account, a new appartment and a fresh start all while travelling from pillar to post, maintaining a social life, get enough sleep, pay my bills and remember to make dinner before 10PM. Adulting is weird. Still not sure how I get to be unsupervised all the time. Or how I am staying alive. Soooo ready for those dirty thirties, baby. Bring it. 🎂🎁🎈🎉

2021... What. A. Year. A break-up in spring. My 2021... What. A. Year. 

A break-up in spring. My life in boxes in summer. Moving into my appartement and returning to my job full time after two years in fall. My first dates in winter. All while living between lockdowns and vaccinations. Four stormy seasons finally coming to an end.

Starting 2022 completely clueless, but with nothing but curiosity and a craving to find out where life will take me in the next 365 days. 

2022, LET'S DO THIS. 🙌

✨HAPPY NEW YEAR ✨
