A delicious dinner with Michela and Cassandra. The rain is over, the night is warm and smells wet. I am sitting alone in the living room. I found a last peace of Hershey’s Chocolate and a Budweiser in the fridge. One thing came to my mind today, as I got the things ready for the suitcase. If I wanted to stay longer, I would have to get something like a daily...

For my last day in Manhattan, there was one place, I wanted to find, a particular one from the movie “Manhattan” by Woody Allan – I wrote about it to the post Manhattan welcome me with fog and rain – Mad at me? I found the place at the 57th Street east. A dead end street and the river. I knew from the start, that this was the right spot,...

I only did a few thing like in 2012 – like today, I took a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, but this time from Manhattan to Brooklyn. Another thing which you should do, if you really wanna be in New York – if you want to feel it. The Brooklyn Bridge is a miracle to walk on. In Brooklyn, I took the subway to Williamsburg, where I met Michela and some of...

The other day, Michela told me, that unless the streets melt, it is not a real Summer vor a New Yorker. For me, coming form Hamburg/Germany, it is perfekt hot above 30 deg. Celsius – so – summer. After an unforgettable afternoon Downtown with Michela (See the photos of her shoot on arnevollstedt.com), we walked to Hudson River. It was warm, nice wind...

In fact, this is the right way for a first NYC Visit: You take the Subway to Times Square 42nd Street and walk east, pass the Bryant...

Today, the Summer reached its Peak – Heat and humidity were making by body scream at every move. The other thing of course might be, that I am on my feet now for three weeks, a lot of miles for a couch potato. So, it amazed me, to see a crowd of New Yorkers working out in the public – uff. I walked slowly through the Meatpacking District, cooled myself...

With the right weather, you get cooked wherever you are – and today after my photosafari on the Manhattan Bridge (yep, no shadows whatsoever), I think I got sun stupid. However, I loved it, almost more than walking across the Brooklyn Bridge – you can celebrate New York AND you see it WITH the Brooklyn Bridge. So, you walk in the direction of Manhattan,...

In New York, you find something called Museum Mile – on the 5th Avenue, with the Guggenheim an the Metropolitan Museum of Art for example. Like every year, today was the Night of the Museums, the 5th Avenue between 82nd and 105th Street was for us the visitors, the people on their way to art and Music and fun, about 50.000 … Before that, I went to...

If you want to be close to Manhattan AND relax, there is not only the Central Park for you in New York. On Roosevelt Island, you can find a comforting bench in the shadow of a tree, and all that with a great view of the East River and Manhattan. A Picnic or a long walk at the riverside? Go for it! For me, the bench under the tree is not only for the relaxing time...
