Hello Kitty!
Hello Kitty!
NYC is the best city on the planet. Hands down. I mean, come on! Hello Kitty sculptures?
As I said in the last entry, my appointment at the Korean Consulate was on Monday. I went into the city solo to interview for my Korean E-2 Visa, the visa which is given specifically to English teachers. It was pretty easy to find the place; I did I quick map search the night before I left. For those of you who might be looking into teaching English in Korea, the Korean Consulate in NYC is on the NW corner of Park and 57th. I got there about ten minutes prior to my appointment, and brought the appropriate paperwork along with: [View Full Entry]

After 2 days travel we finally made it to New York City. We arrived mid morning and made our way by bus from the airport. We booked accommodation from Peru and unfortunately in our panic to leave forgot to write down the address. So after walking up and down 94th street (with our 20kg backpacks may we add) we finally worked out we should have been walking up and down 73rd street trying to find our accommodation...ahhh the joys of travel. So we eventually found our apartment by midday but of course it was not available until 3pm that day. We [View Full Entry]

no honking in NYC?
no honking in NYC?
that's an oxymoron
Although we once thought of moving to Manhattan for a year, we have now completely reconsidered and are very content with that decision. For the time we stayed, however, it was an adventure. The first day we walked all around the city from West 50th, through Greenwich village, down to ground zero which is surrounded by construction barrier and scaffolding. While there we discovered a small church which is the oldest, still used, building in Manhattan. Because it was unaffected by 9-11, it has become somewhat of a memorial ground after serving as a refuge for volunteer firefighters during t [View Full Entry]

Brace yourselves .... the Halloween Special has arrived! New York is awash with the stench of rotting pumpkin and candy. I'll let the pictures do the talking, but suffice to say there's been a loooong lead-up to a washed out grand finale. A few points of interest along the way: * We carved our first pumpkin last weekend. (A swarm of fruit flies made it their home within a day). * As virgin Halloweensters, we learnt a valuable costume lesson this year: wings, props, and crowds don't mix! * Face painting is not a good option either. * The West Village [View Full Entry]

Our Jack-O-Lanterns
The Grinch
Trying On Costumes

Primeiro domingo de novembro, dia de maratona em Nova York. Uma das mais famosas, se não a mais famosa, maratona do mundo. Claro que eu queria ir. Mas claro que também estava com preguiça. Quem me conhece sabe que estou me tornando mais e mais caseira. Além da conta, além do saudável. Eu sei, eu sei... Mas fui. Ainda bem. Acho que, ao lado da minha experiência na Abyssinian Church, foi o momento mais emocionante (e feliz) que presenciei aqui so far. Decidi ficar na 110 st, ponto de chegada dos corredores ao [url=ht [View Full Entry]

Mais jazz

Saudades das minhas aulas de djembe

So, after a 8 hour flight and several glasses of red wine, we landed in NYC exhausted, jet lagged and evenutally lost! We found our hostel around 10pm and checked into the smallest 6 man room possible, it felt like i was sleeping with these people as opposed next to them! The next day we got up, had breakfast in times square and went to collect our new york passes. These turned out to be excellent value and basically gives you free entry to the top 50 attractions in new york. We managed to fit in the empire state building, rockafeller [View Full Entry]

View from the Empire State Building

Eu não entendo de jazz. Eu não entendo de música. Só sei quando gosto de algo. E gostei (MUITO) da apresentação de Whynton Marsalis e seu quinteto, além da sua orquestra. Ele é considerado um dos melhores, se não o melhor, músico de jazz do mundo. Também dirige o Rose Theatre, a casa do jazz em NY, ligada ao maravilhoso Lincoln Center, o mais importante complexo teatral da cidade. Cheguei lá, já tinha um quinteto de jazz tocando no hall. A apresentação começou pontualmente. Jaz [View Full Entry]

Celebrity Sighting #25
Life in New York is a living fantasy. You literally weave in and out of alternate worlds as movie sets spring up en route. Yesterday, after meandering through the heady aroma hot apple cider in Madison Square Park's Fall Festival, I was denied access to a street crossing. The hoard of burly black-clad men sporting secret-service headsets should've tipped me off, but I was still in pumpkin spiced latte land and hardly noticed a street full of screeching yellowcabs and cameras .... that was until a round of fireworks sparked a trio of stuntmen to backflip across moving cars with Samuel [View Full Entry]

After our breakfast, bagel, muffin and an orange we took the subway downtown. Ground zero was our first destination, the space of ground was huge and so were the surrounding sky scrappers, and the new plans our outrageously big!!! Walking to Battery park we passed Wall st and 'the bull', surrounded by Japanese tourists with technologically superior camera's!!! Got on the Liberty ferry which was cool and the best view of the Lady herself. We chilled on the island with some potato chips. After wewent on to Ellis island, found some Welsh Edmunds's but Laura didn't want to pay the5 bucks [View Full Entry]

Booked into our hostel (Chelsea International)then went straight to Madison square garden to watch the Knicks! Game was TIGHT, but the Knicks won 108-103. Cheerleaders were good and 'half time heave' dunk a half way line ball and win 1000 bucks. After we went for beers and nachos. The next day we headed to central and went to Macys, after we went to the Empire state building and let's just say I had sweaty hands!!!!!! I made it to thetop though and took photos so I'm well chuffed! Later we checked out Times square which was amazing, we saw a naked [View Full Entry]
