I live in a small town about thirty miles outside of Buffalo, New York but on the Canadian side of the border. I had recently graduated from college and decided I wanted to turn my hobby into my profession. That hobby was photography. One of the most memorable childhood vacations for me was Easter weekend […]
I lived in New York for two years, and had some of the best and worse experiences of my life during that time. I think one of the worse experiences I had was this time my roommate and I went shopping during a Blizzard. Neither of us had a car, and it was too late […]
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, […]
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 […]
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 […]
I studied at an art school and when I was in New York, I thought it’d be a great opportunity to see so many of the pieces that I had studied. I was in NY in 2005 working in a hostel called Jazz on the Park in the Upper West Side. I wanted to visit […]
New York is so much more than the hustle and bustle of Broadway and Times Square. It’s not too far from Greenwich Village, where you can get the feeling you’re in a small town somewhere in England, the tree-lined streets full of cafes and bars. If it were not for the skyscrapers on the horizon, […]
I remember my first trip to New York City, it was with a college friend of mine in the fall of 2006. I had been before, but not with him. I’d also never ridden the subway, so I took the first subway ride of my life on the 5 line that day. I was surprised […]
I’m originally from Canada, but had never been outside my country before then. I had never gone to Disney World as a kid, or been taken on a cruise. My parents just couldn’t afford it, and that was okay. We’d done some traveling inside Canada, and that was enough for me. My best memory, up […]
