Karen In New York-An Empire State Of Mind Experience
New York in the summer- There's really no place like it. The first time I've seen this amazing city I instantly fell in love with it! Growing up as a kid, I always dreamed of visiting New York. I used to look at photos of celebrities having a good time in this marvelous city and I would dream of myself doing the same thing!
Last June I visited my grandma in the US in Wisconsin and I did some side trips to New York and Chicago. I'll talk about the 'Windy City" later on because this post is all about New York! Thinking about New York, my favorite show Sex and the City is one of the first things that come into mind. From the best beauty buys to styling the latest trends to chatting about your favorite New York hot spots, New York is the place to be.
New York City is known for its fabulous restaurants, museums, food and more. But what it is undeniably famous for is its fashion scene and the people donning those designer pieces. It's no surprise that this city is home to those fashion designers, bloggers and influencers. It's a place almost everyone dreams of living at least once in their life. With ample city parks, some of the worlds best restaurants, shopping districts, and a neighborhood for everyone, NYC is one incredible place to live in.
NYC has so many incredible attractions and things that you might want to make a bucket list.
Here are some of the places I visited while in New York.

If you're anything like me, I always shop a bit in every place I go. The biggest and largest Macys store in the US is right here in New York City.

Hungry? Food is just pretty much around the corner. You can eat anything at anytime around New York city. Countless food shops, hundreds of food trucks and of course, a lot of the world's famous and renowned restaurants are all over this marvelous city. I got the easy chance to eat street food that every person in New York is probably all too familiar. The pretzel.
A small bite of the delicious Big Apple, and you're hooked for life; for you've eaten the forbidden truth. The taste of the city is one that will keep you wanting for more and more! And it's no surprise that New York city is on every bucket list of every traveler around the world.
If I was given a chance, I would love to live in this fast-paced city. For one thing, this city spoils it's people. It's only in NYC that you realize that all of the world lives differently and on a normal schedule. But then, that is the character of New York. You will never run out of things to do. Places to go. Restaurants to eat or people to meet. It is an evolving city. Constantly changing and that is the beauty of living here.
XOXO,
Karen
