Where to Stay
NYC is a great place to use the pricebreaker option on priceline where you select a neighborhood and level of service, and they book you a random hotel meeting those requirements. Fun if you like surprises.
Priceline 'Pricebreaker' Surprise Hotel
Sights & Activities
Obvious must visit, and if your staying in midtown, your probably desperate for some peace anyway.
Central Park
I try to see something on broadway every time I'm in the city and it's always worth the price. There are definitely a range of prices though, so, if you can afford to visit NYC to begin with, you can probably afford a ticket. So silly to me that peop...
Broadway Shows
Get here as early as possible because its super touristy, but its nice if it's not too busy.
The High Line
A lovely place to spend the day.
The Museum of Modern Art
I love burlesque and this show comes with dinner.
Duane Park - Burlesque Show
People don't seem to know this, but you can buy tickets to certain NYFW shows. I haven't done this personally, though I've considered it.
Anything with its access listed as ‘on location’ on the official website has tickets for sale via the ticket platform on location. Those tickets will definitely be a couple thousand dollars +, but if its on your bucket list, you can check it off.
New York Fashion Week
Some self care (Also in Williamsburg)
Bathhouse Flatiron
Food
I'm vegan and gluten free, but thats not a problem in New York

I like to eat here before a broadway show and walk through the park between them.

Thrifting & Vintage
You know I can't resist a day of thrift and vintage shopping. I do my thrifting around the East Village (Manhattan) and Williamsburg (Brooklyn)
I love this little thrift shop. Its small, but pretty well selected.

Very affordable, for those who love the hunt 😉
East Village Thrift Shop
Well stocked charity shop that feeds cats and dogs. We love the animals, of course.
