We have just flown over...

We took off from Berlin and landed at JFK in New York. Nine hours in the air - nothing, and yet we got tired of travelling by underground from the airport to a place in the heart of Brooklyn. The entire journey from home to home lasted 16 hours. Here the temperature in the evening - over 25 degre...

An evening in the city

The early morning heat discouraged me from going cycling. And there is always something to do at home! A powerful evening storm almost stopped us from going out for dinner with Iwona. But we managaed, and this time we visited the Italian restaurant Trattoria Toscana on the White Eagle Square. Abo...

The old city - Quebec

See the map to notice the distances from Manhattan, for example.  (At the very bottom of the map) Coney Island has been very well known as ...

The park is a very nice place for lunch and a moment for a breath from work. Apparently, the best burger...

Putting aside its history, today we minimize the entry and include a huge number of images from the life of New York City now - because it's worth it! It's worth seeing how a place in the heart of the vast metropolis se...

Two years ago, here on the blog, we wrote: "We observe  that New York from year to year is becoming more and more friendly to its residents and tourists. With each stay here we discover new investments which change this city into a metropolis where people do not only work but also relax and breathe...
