I have taken way too many trips to the northeast without going to NYC...so when I visited my boyfriend for spring break last month, I finally convinced him to take me!
Let me just say: I LOVE NEW YORK
It's so busy and large scale and industrial and urban and just plain awesome. Yes, like any city it has it's problems (cost of living is ridiculous, it's pretty much dirty everywhere you go, can be extremely noisy, timeless places like Broadway and Times Square have basically become shopping malls, you can feel like a nobody amongst eight million people, etc...)
BUT
It is also full of amazing architecture, you can do anything you want there and people will love it then call it art, some of the most amazing/eclectic food in America, more culture than you'll find anywhere else in the country, and you just feel kind of cool when you're walking around the streets of THE NYC

Travelings
So ya...it's been a while! Only three months this time >.<
A little over a month ago I went on a cruise with my best friends to Jamaica and Mexico.
We had a BLAST! It was a lot of fun and very relaxing, but it was also an eye opening experience being in another country for the first time. Being the minority in another country where you don't speak the language makes you really appreciate going home :)

Sunset from the deck
Walking trough what the Jamaicans call a "craft market"
One of the stalls had a guy selling wooden figurines. I snapped this with my camera on my shoulder because it upsets them if they see you taking pictures of their things.
The rod iron gates outside of the only nice house in Montego Bay
Local workers putting up a "fence"
Great electrical system...
This is the perfect representation of Jamaica: beauty amongst filth
The port we docked at in Cozumel, Mexico
El burro
Aye aye aye aye!!
