Nobody Home!

My husband and I had lived in U.S. for a few years in the  80s and returned to India in 1985. Our twp sons stayed back to complete their studies. Both were getting into graduate school. We would visit them now and then. During these visits my cousin, Chinnah, who lived in New York City […]

Scared of the City

My worst trip to New York City was my first trip I ever took there.  I had grown up in sheltered suburb, in the Deep South and had never experienced anything like what I saw in New York City.  I was visiting my relatives in Philadelphia and was invited by them to go and see […]

The Chill of NYC

One of the worst experiences I had in New York came from being unprepared.  I was living in Vancouver, going to university, and spending whatever spare money I had on fashion. So when my mom told me that she had been given an opportunity to attend a conference in New York and that she’d love […]

Midtown Sticky Fingers

I’ve lived in New York for a long time, so I’ve had some great experiences. That being said, I’ve also had some not-so-great. The worst one that I can think of is the time I went to a midtown bar and got robbed in less than 10 minutes! Said bar is no longer in existence, […]

One of the most memorable childhood vacations for me was Easter weekend […]

Drunk at an Unfamiliar Restaurant

This is quite possibly one of the funniest stories I’ve ever told (and believe me, I have told it to quite a few people).  My friend Jessie and I had planned a trip to New York because we got this amazing deal on the flight and hotel for booking them together.  Our first night there, […]

Something to Remember

I’ve only been to New York City one time, and it was certainly something to remember. When I first stepped out of the NYC airport doors, an unpleasantly cold wind went swept my spine. I’m from California and our January weather is nothing compared to the New York frost. I found New York to be […]

Recycled Ice Cream…

A few years ago, I visited New York City with my parents and my sister.  Though we were equally excited to be there, we each had something different that we wanted to do:  I wanted to see the Empire State Building, my sister wanted to shop at Macy’s, my mother wanted to see the Statue […]
