  • Munich, I’m Sorry but You’re not Berlin

    When we told people, we were going to go to Germany, everybody told us oh Munich was the best place in Germany. We were very excited about this.

    South Street Seaport

    South Street Seaport was one of the first places I visited in New York when I came to the city. It is quite different than the other parts of the city. It is calm, quite and has European kind of vibe. I love cobble stone streets. It reminds me Galata.  Meatpacking and the South Street…
