So I figured that if I want to be a successful travel journalist, I should really start a blog. I used to write a lot when I was younger. My primary days were filled with non-fiction stories about vampires and candy, whereas my high school days portrayed more of a blog structure, things concerning life, emotions and well-being. I know I want to mix …

...Ok, nicht wirklich Berge aber etwas höhere Hügel. Das wäre ja nicht weiter erwähnenswert - es sei denn, man sitzt auf einem Fahrrad und muss den Hügel rauffahren.

Coming to you from New York, New York!

A sleep in this morning, set us back with regards to how much time we had to sight see but helped us get over the last of our jet lag.

We didn't want to do too much today as Danielle our friend from Ireland isn't due in NY until tomorrow and most sights we want to see, she will want to see …

Started the day with a pancake, waffle and anything else that goes with Maple Syrup in a great diner (Scottys) on Lexington and a numbered street. Would highly recommend it, the old guy/owner was really friendly and a bit of a joker - when we said we'd prefer the front because the back was too cold, he asked whether we'd like a coffee to "warm us …

Het is 2330 en we zijn net binnen van de musical Little Mermaid. Een Disney Musical met heel veel mooie decors en effecten. Onze plekken waren heel erg mooi, weliswaar gekocht in een aanbieding, nog niet echt goedkoop maar we zaten gewoon wel de 2e rij vanaf het podium! Alles dus van heel dichtbij kunnen bekijken in een uitverkocht theater voor zo' …
