Although I didn’t visit New York City as a tourist until I was nearly 20, I’ve definitely made up for it since. While NYC is huge and there are a million things to see. After years of practice, I think I finally have nailed down what to show friends and family who are visiting that only… Continue reading The Daily Soiree’s Guide to 36 Hours in NYC
