旅行者へのアドバイス

交通アクセス

Citibikes are my preferred method of transport

There are Citibike docking stations all over. Download the Citibike App and add a debit or credit card. I prefer to ride later at night after the traffic dies down.
交通アクセス

Subway tips

If you are planning to take the subway for more than a few days, invest in a weekly or monthly pass even if you wont use every single day. To determine direction of the train, look on the front and sides of the train for the signs. The signs list the end of the route.
風習と文化

Soak up the diverse cultures

The best thing about New York is the diversity. Take the time to learn about the different cultures and understand other perspectives. Everyone gets along while respecting each other.
必要な持ち物

Comfortable walking shoes!

Expect to walk alot. Sneakers or tennis shoes are recommended. As well as light layers as the NYC weather can change at a moments notice.
