Places I have gone to reset, hang with loved ones, and to enjoy nature

About an hour west of NYC and an hour north of Philadelphia is Bucks County, PA. The Delaware River runs alongside, separating PA from NJ. It's a beautiful location in all seasons. It's a B&B destination, an antiquing stopping place, and a historic area. George Washington crossed the Delaware (yes, THAT event) during the Revolutionary War.

Fun spots to see In and around the Atlanta area! These are so many places to go, here are a few of my favorites!

By accident, we stumbled on this little town and fell in love with it! This western town is steeped in cowboy and Native American history. The absolute charm of the downtown area just reels you in. Here are some great places to visit!

There’s so much to do in NYC! My favorite things to do in the city are: (1) to eat (see below for my foodie guide), (2) go to a broadway show (the TKTS stand has great discounted tickets – and I personally pick the shows I want to see based on the cast), and (3) walk around and explore the different neighborhoods! Each neighborhood has its own charm – I particularly love Chelsea (you can walk the highline and get something to eat at Chelsea Market), Nolita/Soho/Little Italy (which are all in walking distance of each other), and there’s nothing like walking around central park (with a stop at the Plaza Hotel or Columbus circle). It’s touristy, but I love 30 Rock (get something from Magnolia bakery while you’re there), and if you’ve never done the tour it’s fun to see the SNL set and hear from a real NBC page! Obviously, Columbia has a beautiful campus but unless you’re venturing uptown there isn’t that much else to do there. Brooklyn is its own magical world (and each neighborhood there is different too - Brooklyn Heights is bougie and beautiful, Williamsburg is hipster AF, and generally the pizza is the best in Brooklyn). But my favorite part about living in NYC was that chances are if you see a cool pop up or random event happening on instagram/social media, it’s happening in New York and you can be a part of it! Eater and Thrillist are two places that share these types of events.
