Off to New York City

Good day,

I’m in Managua at my friend’s house sweating it out in a room that I quite like but it has no desk which has me a bit lost. Also, my friend’s husband is on a mission to download the internet so it’s moving slow which really slows my roll. Today was great and I rolled the dice on a random haircut from a random barber / hairdresser and they figured I didn’t need sideburns; wonderful.

Tomorrow I’m off to New York City for the first time. I’m leaving at 8am and will arrive at around 6pm or so. I’m there until the 23rd which is somewhere near the end of the week when I’ll be flying back to Nicaragua. I did a campaign with Visit Britain in 2014 and they are having an event that I’ll be participating in; should be a good time.

I won’t be doing much touristy stuff as I have limited free time. You see, I’m not into cold weather and know I’ll be back in New York at some point in my life unless I die young and in that case it doesn’t really matter anyways, does it? I plan on doing some shopping for stuff I need and exploring at my leisure while resting up for the main event on the 22nd. Shopping wise think external solid-state drives, perhaps a new camera and a bunch of other stuff I should really write down.

I do plan on seeing Times Square if it’s not far and a few other things. That said, it’s more of a work trip and I’ll be quite busy for the most part. I’m also curious what “New York Chic” means for dress attire, can someone enlighten me? From Nicaragua to New York City, that’s a route I never thought I’d take. Ahh the life of travel is an interesting one and really, most people can do it if they play their cards right and manage to keep themselves completely removed from most commitments but enough about stuff you already know.

I’m excited to be going to New York City! I really can’t believe I haven’t been before and above all else, I’m there to feel the vibe and become part of it even if only for a few days. The sights will always be there and I would like to see them but I’m not about to go trekking around in the cold like my life depends on taking the 000,000,000’s photo of landmark X. I just want to sit in diners, people watch and be anonymous in what I’ve heard is one of the greatest cities in the world…

I absolutely love London and have a feeling I’ll love New York as well.

Tips hat,
