So, we’ve just done something a bit crazy. We’ve just purchased tickets to go to the US at the end of the month. We’ll be there for two weeks and will be visiting New York, Philadelphia, DC and New Orleans. Busy schedule, as you can imagine, and very little time to plan for it!
So I’ve done the only reasonable thing to do in those circonstances and I’ve been Pinteresting (totally a word) like crazy since then. So here is a first draft of what my New York bucket-list looks like. (all pictures’ sources available here)
Central Park, Brooklyn Botanical Garden & Brooklyn Bridge
Big Gay Ice Cream came highly recommended!
The Chrystler Building, Central Park (again), the Statue of Liberty (obviously), the High Line & pretty buildings
The MoMA, Chinatown and some cute signs
West Village, The Guggenheim museum, Jack’s Wife Freda, St John the Divine Cathedral and some staircases too…
Anything I’ve missed but really REALLY shouldn’t? I’d love to hear your recommendations!
How lovely! I hope you have an amazing time. I look forward to reading all about your adventures when you return x

Right now, I’m rather panick-ey because there’s SO MUCH to do before I go! But hopefully it’ll be worth it!
Can’t wait to share my adventures with you!

Make sure you take time to just walk around. I went last November and found so much that I hadn’t planned to do just by stumbling across it.
Grand central station is beautiful, check out the pastries in the food market while you’re there. It’s worth a trip to Brooklyn flea market. The Paris cinema is so cute for the evening. And for burgers, you have to visit Shake Shack. They are amazing, as is the milkshake!

I’m probably the only person on earth ho doesn’t like milkshake but my BF will give them a go for me!
Definitely planning on walking around quite a bit, that’s a best way to discover a new city in my opinion!
Thanks for the tips

Hopefully it’ll be. A bit stressful at the moment as there’s so much to do beforehands! But it’s also SO exciting!
