East Coast Swing!

As some of you know, I took my first trip to New York recently. I’ve always been a west coast kid but one of my goals for 2012 was to travel to new places and NY was at the top of the list. I took a red-eye flight into NY, my good friend Evan, who had originally invited me out to New York, was gracious enough to open his home to me and I couldn’t be more thankful for that. I’m not a big tourist person, I’m more for people watching, shopping, and eating great food (which I did MUCH of all three). I did however check out central park and time square which was very exciting. I spent the majority of my time out in Soho (I love love LOVE that area). The weather for the week was around 35-45 degree’s; however the day I actually left it was mid 50’s (go figure lol). While in NY I had the chance to catch up with Alfred from Black-Scale. He showed me around Soho and put me on with an AMAZING Cuban restaurant. When it came to the night life, the homie David showed me around. I’m used to the club ending at 2:30, however in New York people drink til 6AM. I didn’t have any problems with that of course, so I had a lot of fun when it came to the nightlife. All and all, New York is an amazing place and for my first visit, I’d say it was a great one. I will definitely come back in the near future!

I took a little video for my first visit to Time Square. I don't see myself going back down there again, it's HECTIC.
