I am writing this from New York. I arrived two days ago and like a few hundred of other Spaniards, I bought a laptop over here. What can I say? It's cheap and necessary, well, at least now I won't have the excuse that there aren't any Internet shops around...
I am lost for words when it comes to New York. A lot of people have been here before me. Most of the people have seen New York in TV, in movies, in advertising, so I don't know what to say that will sound different. So far I have only visited Manhattan. I am staying with Sina (couchsurfer from Iran who is studying at Columbia University). He lives in 111th Street West. Yesterday I walked from here to the ferry terminal which goes to the Statue of Liberty, and I stopped over at Central Park. Now if you have been here before, you will know what I am talking about. Bloody far. But soooo worth it. I have seen Times Square (only tourists there), Broadway, Central Park, Wall Street, Fifth Ave., First Ave., Madison, the Empire State Building, Ground Zero (were twin towers used to be), the Chrystler Building (my favourite), MoMA, United Nations Building... I just don't know how many more famous buildings I have seen and funny enough, one of the places it made me more happy to find was... the restaurant from Seinfeld!!! it does exist and it just around the corner from my place, in 112th street, sweet! Well, at least that was something different and unexpected, wasn't it?
I fly on the 27th to London and from there to Barcelona, although I still haven't booked a flight yet.
If anything exciting or unusual happens I will let you know, now I am going to upload a few pictures...
