My Travel, New York, USA

The concrete jungle called NYC

Posted by Christine Kaharmen on

I would rather spend time in actual jungle on any given day, but this concrete jungle just captivated me. DUH, it’s indeed New York City! Now I understand what the fuss is all about. If I had to summarize NYC in one sentence I would say that:

Nothing quite like it yet it’s everything for everyone.

After my short stay in the city, I could say that one will most definitely find something to love about the city. Something to experience I’d rather say. Here are some of my captures of NYC (just a very tiny bit of it) that reminded me of the famous song saying that it’s a concrete jungle where dreams are made of and there’s nothing you can’t do (there). To prove that wrong, I guess you’ll just have to see for yourself 😉

as the day ended, don’t worry you are in for a treat in the city that never sleeps

If I were asked whether or not to come back to the city; my answer would be a solid yes. I figure that I would definitely stay longer and experience more. Finding more life and meeting more humans of New York for that matter.

I was in NYC in Christmas 2017 and January 2018 for a short transit before and after my South America adventure- more on that later.
