Today Jenny and I are leaving for Costa Rica! Both of us look forward to this trip very much! I spent the last couple of days in New York, a city I like more and more. You can check out some of my pics here. I've been around in Manhattan - mostly Chelsea, Village and Soho. Also visited the Guggenheim museum but I was a bit disappointed, however the Musem of Modern Art deserves another visit! Enjoy and until next time, Helena... read more

Nu er klokken 9:54 (lokal tid) og det er min foerste dag i New York. Har fundet et ret laekkert hostel og bord paa vaerelse med 3 andre danskere og to amerikanere (tror jeg nok). Den ene hedder Lotte og laeser til laege og skal vaere i New York i 5 uger. Hun har fri her i weekenden saa tror vi finder ud af noget sammen. Maa sige at jeg har haft en god start, kom med det rigtige fly, fik vinduesplads, fandt min baggage og derefter fik jeg paa en eller anden maade booket mig selv til en "dele-bus" fra lufthavnen og direkte til Hostelet og til den favorable pris af 20 dollars. Nu maa jeg saa se hvad jeg faar denne fantastiske dag med blaa himmel til at gaa med. Overvejer at begive mig ... read more

Today is our third day here and we’ve been really busy so far. Our apt. is really cute- really tiny-but cute. We are subletting from a gay guy who is moving in with his partner but hanging on to his place. It’s a studio with a Murphy bead (it folds out of the wall). The place is set up with dimming lights, a 300 -disc cd player filled with discs and organized by genre, and Buddha statues everywhere. We are on the upper west side so we are about a 10 to 20 min subway ride to the heart of the city, depending on the destination. So far we have done a lot of window shopping in different parts of the city - my favorite being soho and nolita (above little Italy). There are lots ... read more
