We woke up at 6am, packed last things needed and hit the road! :) The journey lasts 4 hours so we caught up the sleep deficiency for the last days a lil bit. (I was so tired that I caught myself sleeping on a shoulder of the guy sitting right next to me- luckily he was asleep so he didn't even noticed anything haha)
We are gonna spend here 3 days and 3 nights and then on Sept. 12 we're going to San Francisco!
And since we didn't find anybody on Couchsurfing who can host us we had to booked a hostel. The cheapest we found was for 30$ per night. (Our lives are worth the money)
When we got to the adress of the hostel we were terrified. There was no hostel, just a building that barely stands on its feet with broken windows and everything in a not very trustworthy neighbourhood. We were even more terrified at the time when we asked a guy sitting on a bench right in front of the building that was supposed to be our hostel and he answered 'hostel? There is no hostel near here'.
Luckily the whole situation got better when a young black man came to this building with large keyrings- the landlord. He showed us the rooms, kitchen and bathroom, gave us our keys and even helped us with reducing the price for our room. We are sharing our room with a nice russian girl and it is actualy quite a nice place (except for bathroom).
Then we went to wander the streets in NYC, we went to the 9/11 Memorial and actually for the first time in our life we have seen the panorama of Manhattan- which literally took our breath away.
We'll keep you posted as much as possible so you can travel and experience this amazing trip with us! :)
Keep your fingers crossed for us ;)
We're living our dream! <3
