Many adventures, many stories and it’s time to catch up. In the last couple of months I have been to Florida, New York, Wisconsin and many other places I still need to write about. So stay tuned

‘Two Big Headlights’
We left New York with a bang and we will never forget our adventure in any way possible. We were in the middle of a process where we had to figure out if we wanted or had to go back to the Netherlands. This country brought us so much joy, so much love, and so [...]
Shake Shack
Deze Amerikaanse hamburgers moet je hoe dan ook proeven en tevens de sfeer ervaren... Ofwel echt een aanrader om naar toe te gaan! Het is altijd druk, maar een unieke ervaring. Je staat soms in een lange rij inclusief met politieagenten en brandweerlieden. Maar geloof me dat het echt de moeite waard is en het [...]
Winter Village at Bryant Park
It’s shopping, eating, and ice skating all in one place! Ice skating in the beautiful locale of Bryant Park, while the Chrysler and the Empire state Building look down on you. We passed it so many times and this time I really wanted to go on the ice. My husband decided not to go with [...]
Dylan’s Candy Bar
Dit is een ‘Candy wonderland’ voor jong en oud met drie verdiepingen in hartje Manhattan, genaamd ‘Dylan’s Candy Bar’ (dubbelklik). Deze plaats is prachtig om te zien. Het interieur bestaat grotendeels uit snoep. Ze hebben een overvloed aan verschillende soorten zoetigheid zoals: Jellybeans, snoepjes, chocolade, ijsjes, koekjes, cupcakes en souvenirs, maar ook hartigheden en ga [...]
Brooklyn Children’s Museum
My daughter loves this place! We already went to a few children museums, but this one was very spacious and even bigger than the children's museum in Manhattan. But Brooklyn Children's Museum is certainly a fantastic place for kids to explore, wonder, learn, and most importantly, have fun!!! You will have them engaged for hours. [...]
Who Is She
Every day she shows me her warm smile. She is the one who gives me an intense feeling of proud. She waves and blow kisses to every person who she feels needs one. She amazes me every day more. She makes her own friends and family if its like nothing. She has this beautiful smile [...]

The Disney Store
Ik kreeg deze zomer te horen dat ze bij alle Disney stores in Amerika een openingsceremonie doen in de ochtend voordat ze de winkel openen. Dit is speciaal voor de kinderen. (In New York 7 dagen in de week) Kinderen verzamelen zich 15 minuten voor openingstijd en wachten tot 'Tinkerbell' (van Peter Pan) de zaak [...]
Greenacre Park, Manhattan
Ik vond een Amerikaans stukje op internet over een "verborgen waterval" midden in Manhattan. "Een oase van rust... Je weet niet wat je ziet"!! Was 1 van de reviews. Gelijk even uitgezocht en er uiteraard naar toe gegaan. Het zit op de 217 East 51st Street!! Je moet wel goed opletten anders loop je er [...]
Empire State Building and the Skyride
Om nog maar even terug te komen op de ‘ must see places’... Ik moest wat tijd “killen” met mijn dochter, omdat mijn man een afspraak had op 33rd street. Dat is pal naast de ‘Empire State Building’. http://www.esbnyc.com/ Omdat ik een andere keer de rockefeller al had bezocht, was het een beetje zonde van [...]
Personal Photographer
A add to the all ‘must see places’… which I believe is a great one! We all know how annoying it is to be on a holiday and one person is never in the picture because that one is taken the picture. It is just difficult to be as a couple, a whole family or [...]
Smorgasburg in Brooklyn
My next stop!
Can’t decide on where to go for a bite to eat? The solution should be Smorgasburg.
The New York Times calls Smorgasburg “The Woodstock of Eating” which is probably the most accurate statement I’ve ever heard in my life. This place is absolutely not somewhere to go on a full stomach. With 75-100 food vendors every weekend, Smorgasburg offers a little bit of everything from spicy Indian food from Masala Mama to traditional Mexican fare from Oaxaca Taqueria. Smorgasburg also offers some exotic options like hamburgers with buns made of fried ramen noodles from the creative minds of Ramen Burger. At 670 calories, this quite literally isn’t for the faint of heart.
Realistically, a lot of the food vendors are pricey for street food, but you can still get a meal and dessert for under $20. The best part of Smorgasburg is that you’re eating with an incredible view of…

Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Williamsburg is een mooie wijk in Brooklyn Wow.... wat een prachtige architectuur,Ik heb mijn ogen uitgekeken . Ook vind je daar hele leuke cafeetjes en restaurantjes. Er lopen vele “hippe” mensen en artiesten rond, maar ook mensen die zich graag wensen te associëren met artiesten... Soms kun je niet echt plaatsen of het een zwerver [...]
‘Starting from the bottom’
New York is giving me a whole new prospective on life. I am surprised how many different cultures live in this city. We are so different, but at the same time so the same. We all come for one thing and that is ‘building up a better life and make our dreams come true’. [...]
