5 NYC Tourist Hot Spots Worth a Visit*
You might remember that a couple of weeks ago I shared My 5 Must Dos in New York City? And I thought today I would expand on that since I’m still really missing the Big Apple. Not all the places I listed were particularly tourist for people having that “one off” trip. So today I’m elaborating on that sharing my 5 favourite tourist hot spots of the many that are on Manhattan and the immediate surrounding area. Despite having had three trips I still haven’t visited them all, but in my opinion these 5 are worth a visit. The great thing about visiting NYC is that there are passes available…

My 5 Must Dos in New York City
I’ve been lucky enough to visit New York City three times in the last eight years and now that LM is older I’m definitely getting the ache to go back. It’s one of my favourite places in the world, somewhere I feel completely at home. There really is no city like it, there are so many different worlds all on island, it’s crazy. The last time I visited was now almost three years ago (believe me it feels longer) which is probably why I’m starting to miss the place like crazy and since it’s been a while since I did a blog post about somewhere other than the UK or…

5 Must Dos in Washington DC
So remember that time I went on this crazy adventure on my own around the North East corner of the States for 10 days? No? To be perfectly honest sometimes I even forget I did that, it seems like a lifetime ago even though it was only the summer of 2014! It feels like a dream now, or that it didn’t even happen to me. I’ve been trying to fall back in love with my blog, so I thought revisiting that adventure and writing some more posts about it would be a great way as travel writing is truly where my heart lies. Today I’m tackling Washington DC and my…

Summer Travel Planning.. Where, When, What, How
So this is my very last post in regards to the trip I took to the States back in August. It was a once in a life time trip thanks to the competition I won in association with Travel Supermarket back in August 2013. Even though I had the money in my pocket, because I had so much I wanted to do I had to make sure I was still savvy when booking things. I travelled from London to Washington DC to New York to Niagara Falls to New Jersey then back to London. In 10 days. I stayed in lovely hotels, ate good food, spent time with some awesome…

26th August – To Infinity and Beyond
I feel bloody terrible for leaving my last Travel Diary entry this long! It’s been nearly two months since I first headed east to my favourite place in the world and my diary entries have been sporadic to say the least. However tonight after a pint of iced coffee and a bath I am ready to recount my last day. It’s heartbreaking to put this to bed as I have most definitely had the blues since I came back despite having a holiday already booked for 6 months time! There was such a huge build up to this, that I have felt so flat and seriously home-sick for all things…

25th August – If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It
Originally this was going to be the last post from my trip, however once I started editing the photos I realised there was going to be way too many in one post. So this is actually the penultimate Travel Diaries post. On the Monday Namu, her friend Darian (a girl I’ve met once before) and I had booked to take a bus trip up to Niagara Falls. When I was looking into going I didn’t actually realise that it’s actually an 8 hour drive, yet still in the same state as New York City! That really shows you just how vast the country is when one state is the size…
