Last spring I finally managed to cross off New York from my list of Things do to before I turn 30.
I know that technically I was already 30 but who cares, I'm still 25 in my head you know.
Anyway, the trip was super awesome. I was going to write about what people should see when they go to New York but then I realized that I suck at being a tourist (I only saw 3 out of the top 10 must-see New York attractions according to this article). So, instead I will just list few highlights from the trip if that is ok with everybody:
Also, here you have a bunch of pics for your amusement.

- Brooklyn flea market
- Ribs at Brisket Town
- Shopping in Williamsburg
- Polish bakeries in Greenpoint
- Kitchen supply stores
- West Elm Market in Dumbo
- The cold brew from Black Brick coffee
- Sneaker stores
- Chelsea Market
- Brooklyn Pale Ale
- The views from Grand Ferry Park
- Old-school dinners
- Earl Grey Ice-cream from Van Leeuwen
- The Brooklyn bridge
- Waffles, bagels, pancakes and nearly every single food truck.
