  • I went to New York!
    This was a trip from my summer travels that has taken far too long to upload lol. It was my first time in NYC and I had such a fun time.
    If you're new here, I'm from California, and live in the Bay Area. I love traveling and experiencing new places, whether it's a weekend solo trip or a vacation with friends and family. I also do freelance photography and enjoy all things fitness.

    I'm going to NYC this summer and you're just like me when I travel..I walk EVERYWHERE. I use public transportation or rideshare as a last resort. Great video! Definitely going to visit that romance bookstore.

      New York seems like a walkable city. I never been but seeing how crowded the city seems I assume everything is walkable especially times square or downtown

    Never been to New York but planning my own solo trip in December. Might pop to Times Square to have a look but for me it doesn’t appeal to me that much. Not going to travel all the way from the UK and eat at a McDonalds or go to a Madam Tussaud’s because we have them in UK. I want to experience the areas outside and local foods.

    • @Makiah
      @Makiah  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yeah there's much more appealing places to check out than times square

      Trust me Times Square is not worth it it's my least favorite place in nyc, just crowded and weird ppl everywhere that are trying to sell anything to you

      Long island city is always nice! I feel safe when i stay at LIC Hotel or the LIC Hostel next door. Very affordable. I mean, i feel safe in most parts of the city, but I've also solo traveled quite a bit and just don't feel unsafe in NYC
