I was rummaging through the closets of my brain this morning trying to think what my next review would be about and it struck me that even though I have New York in my username, because I love the city with a passion, I have yet to write a review about it. So here it is! I have wanted to go to New York for as long as I can possibly remember.

I was in New York just two weeks ago now and it was one of the best holiday trips I’ve ever been on, New York is a marvellous city that I definitely will visit again. I have been to London, I've been to Paris and I've been to New York and New York has got to be my favourite. New York is huge and has plenty to do there also everything is very well priced.

I went to this city a few months ago I loved the everything in New York and wish I could go straight back tommorow. I think the thing that most appealed to me on my visit was the huge amount of great shops I mean once I got there I couldn't really stop buying all the great things on sale there that I liked. Allthough I live in London due to my hectic schedule I never get to go in to the city like I would like to but when I got to New York it felt great apart from my busy time shopping I enjoyed visiting attractions like the Statue of Liberty which is a must if your in New York. The night life's great and you don't have to worry about eating healthy ... Read the complete review
