  • I hope you enjoy this vlog of our New York trip with the kids this May. We wanted to make the most of being in the city in the Summer so we ventured out to Coney Island, went down to Brooklyn (any info on restaurants etc, just ask) and even took the aerial tramway to Roosevelt Island. We used a mix of transport including the subway and NYC ferry (Uber is SO expensive) so any questions you have will help me put together a future guide/itinerary for those of you looking for the best way to plan your first visit.

    BUT FIRST, why not take a look at our shop? We hand make candles, wax melts and decor and we might be biased but the reviews say they're a little bit special!

    Ahhh loved seeing these clips of your holiday 🤩 You packed so much in and really enjoyed the way you edited it.... Felt relaxing to watch! Q&A video on visiting NY would be so helpful - What would be your top tips for first visit to NY for people not so interested in 'touristy' stuff? Also how safe did you feel? Especially using the subway... I watch a few NYC vloggers and safety feels like a big topic right now 🙏xxx P.S. LOVED your tortoise shell sunglasses!!

    • @MikhilaMcDaid
      @MikhilaMcDaid  4 дні тому +1

      People ALWAYS ask me about safety .. someone at work asked if I’d ever been mugged.. as if it was a guarantee 😂
      I’ve never felt unsafe BUT I think I have a pretty laid back view of my own safety so I might not be the best person to ask on that front

    • @MikhilaMcDaid
      @MikhilaMcDaid  4 дні тому

      I honestly think it’s just being a product of 90s TV/movie culture. My parents were big yankophiles when I was a kid too so maybe that? It’s also a walking city so I feel totally in control of my movements.. whereas in LA, say, I’d have to rely on someone else driving because I don’t want to drive abroad.

    I went in January… is it a lot more expensive to treble in warmer months did u find than winter?
    I want to take my lads next

    • @MikhilaMcDaid
      @MikhilaMcDaid  4 дні тому +1

      We almost always go in January cause it’s cheap. It’s all about tweaking the dates and dropping on a good deal really.January is cheaper than any other time though

    How sweet is milo btw!! So jealous of your trip. We went last year for our honeymoon - only took 4 years to get there in the end due to covid, costs etc. and it was amazing. Absolutely living vicariously through you just now! I’m due a baby on Thursday so not visiting nyc any time soon 😭😂

    I been to New York few times but never used the subway. Do you feel safe in it? How is it in the evening? Would you go again or do you feel like you have "seen it all"?

    • @MikhilaMcDaid
      @MikhilaMcDaid  8 днів тому +1

      I think this was my 13th visit so I would absolutely go again 😂 as for the subway, each ride is a gamble in terms of fellow passengers. There are people on there selling things, people preaching religion but I’ve never felt unsafe

      The Harry Potter store is in the Flatiron district, just past the famous Flatiron building (I went twice on my trip last summer 😊)
