Sunset Sunday  – Sunset in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC

Sunset Sunday – Sunset in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC

The sun sets in the west.  In New York City that means it sets in the dense suburbs of New Jersey. Couple that with tall buildings, crowded streets, and the frantic end of day commute and the city doesn’t offer an idyllic setting to capture a sunset. But as you learned through the sunsets stories […]

Where to Stay in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC? – Ink48

Hell’s Kitchen. Today this Manhattan neighborhood certainly doesn’t deserve its nickname, and in the last ten years the midtown-west location has truly transformed.  Today, some even label it as trendy and chic.

Sunset Sunday – Columbus Circle, NYC

Sunset Sunday – Columbus Circle, NYC

Sometimes I search out the sunset. I plan my day around the moment. I find it’s well worth it every time. Other times, well the sunset finds me. It finds us all. We can be at an event or perhaps just living life and “wa-la” the sunset causes us to pause. We watch it. We enjoy […]

Sunset Sunday – Walking the Brooklyn Bridge, New York

As a native New Yorker, I am often asked for recommendations, the “what to do, what to see” regarding my city. It’s not hard to rattle of a list of ‘to-dos’ about arguably one of the world’s most dynamic and exciting destinations so I oblige. Yet I don’t often write about them. I don’t want […]

Sunset Sunday – NYC Marathon, Central Park

On New York City Marathon Sunday, you can usually find me in Central Park when the sun sets, but I start that day by waking up early to watch the race (the professionals), enjoy a long leisurely brunch and then head to experience one New York City’s best experiences, the joy of cheering for all […]

Cheering for Everyone, the Joy of the NYC Marathon

Cheering for Everyone, the Joy of the NYC Marathon

This year I will miss an annual tradition. This weekend I will not be there to support the thousands who lace up and run the NYC marathon from the sidelines. But even from a distance (I am in Mexico) I will take a moment on Sunday to cheer. To mark the occasion, I decided to […]
