I'm going to be a part of it.

"Used to take the subway up to Houston and 3rd
I would wait for you and I'd try to hide"
-Ryan Adams, 'New York, New York'

Like the impulsive fool I am, or at least sometimes am -- except for the times when I'm not impulsive at all and the sum total of my randoness for the week is signing out of Facebook; I booked a flight to NY.

I'd love to hear your ideas on where to go, what to do. Also, if you know of where I might be able to stay/sleep cheaply, please let me know. I'll be there from Mid-October till Mid-November. Last year I rented a little tiny space in Brooklyn; which was quite hilarious, although this time I'd prefer a place that has access to a shower!

New York, I am coming back to see you. Can't wait.

PS: Sorry for my pretentious, blurry shot of NY. I had just found a photo editing program when I took it and went wild.

    Sigh. I'm closer to NY than you and I've never been. Always wanted to...

    So, obviously I can't recommend any sights or places to stay. BUT I will say this...take pictures. Loooooots of pictures. =)

    Have fun!

    Aw! You lucky thing! I've always wanted to go to NY!

    Go everywhere, do everything and then post about it all so that I can live vicariously through you :P

    Have a lovely time x

    Oh oh oh! I'm going for the second time in September. V excited.

    Hotel research I undertook with my erstwhile traveling partner revealed three fairly cheap (ish) options in Manhattan:

    Pod http://www.thepodhotel.com
    Grace Hotel http://tinyurl.com/5jl896
    The Gerswin www.gershwinhotel.com (Which I stayed in last time and was brilliant)

    I'm looking forward to not having to do all the tourist stuff this time, and lots of lounging in bars/ cafes... bon voyage!
