Brooklyn Botanical Gardens

Brooklyn Botanical Gardens

Sometimes the city get's a little overwhelming, especially towards the end of the school semester, but New York never fails to disappoint with its range of experiences. The Brooklyn Botanical Gardens are only 20 minutes outside of Manhattan, but feel like a different world entirely. I think my favorite was the Japanese Zen Garden, I felt like I was in an autumnal version of Monet's Gardens in Giverny, which I visited earlier this year. It's so much more peaceful than Central Park, with people leisurely strolling through the gardens and children playing in the leaves. I'll definitely be back in spring and summer to see the cherry blossoms and the water lilies.

Good Night New York Citiy

I can totally understand why one falls in love with this pulsating city, love and hate are sometimes so close. She can make you or ruin you but nevertheless she is one of a kind. A city that never sleeps, Frank Sinatra sang in a hymn to her, "If you can make it there, you make it anywhere. "

“There's nothing wrong with enjoying looking at the surface of the ocean itself, except that when you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean.
