Jeg har altid gerne ville se et Broadway show. Jeg har altid elsket teateret, det er bare noget andet end TV og film! Men Broadway shows kan være dyre, så her er nogle tips til at få billige billetter. Det er dog ikke alle shows der kan fåes billigere.
Det var en varm dag. Solen brændte fra en skyfri himmel. Jeg havde lige været forbi Staten Island og var gået op af Wall Street, hvor jeg besluttede mig for at spise en frozen yoghurt i skyggen. Da jeg sad der og så livet gå forbi, fik jeg øje på et lille skilt til 9/11 memorial.
NYC er en kæmpe by og det er helt muligt, at nå at se det hele på bare et par uger. Det er en legeplads for artister, fotografter, filmskabere og et sted, hvor kommende skuespiller og modeller kan blive opdaget. Ja, det er en by som er kæmpe og fuld af talent! Der forgår altid et eller andet og du vil bestemt ikke komme til at kede dig! Så tag med på en rejse til USA lige her og se evt. min video fra byen her
Jeg elsker at se rejsevideoer! New York City har også bare så mange muligheder for at få optaget en masse små klip! Det er fantastisk. Jeg har prøvet at indfange stemningen og de mange gadekunstnere, som man kan finde i New York City. Så forhåbentlig vil denne video give dig lyst til et backpacker-eventyr i New York City! Byen har virkelig meget at byde på og jeg kan i særdeleshed anbefale, at du ser et show på broadway og besøger 9/11 memorial!
Det er i hvert fald en fantastisk by, som jeg vil anbefale alle at besøge mindst en gang i deres liv! Har du fået lyst til at se endnu flere videoer, så kan du se en fra Oceanien og Sydøstasien. Rigtig god fornøjelse!

New York City – The city that doesn’t sleep. New York City is world famous and is on the bucket list of many travelers. Here you will be able to experience the vibrant city life, explore zoos, parks and museums. Take a walk through Central Park, honor the victims of 9/11 at the 9/11 memorial, see the lights of Times Square and enjoy the skyline from Empire State Building. Yes, NYC has something to offer to every traveler.
Visa:
Accommodation: Accommodation is probably going to be the most expensive part of your travel budget. New York has high accommodation prices. The quality of hostels aren’t the best compared to the price, expect to pay US$42-50 for the cheapest dorms. If you are two travelling together then Airbnb might be the cheapest way to go (get US$25 by using the Airbnb link here). I will recommend staying in Williamsburg or Dumbo in Brooklyn, where it is cheaper and less noisy compared to Manhattan. Note: all accommodation (except from Airbnb) adds on taxes of 14.75% to the price you see online.
Food: You will be able to find all sorts of food in New York City because of the high diversity in the population, so eat what you heart desires, but when you are in the US you should eat some American food! Try a doughnut, frozen yoghurt, burgers etc. If you are on a budget it might be worth considering buying two pizza slices and a soft drink for US$2.75, some fresh fruit or trying the small food stalls you will find all over Manhattan (prices from US$3-7)
Transportation: The transport system is really good in New York and it is fairly easy getting around. You will be able to find buses, metro and bicycles in most parts of New York. A ride with the bus or metro is US$2.5, but you can buy a 7 day unlimited pass for US$30 (+ US$1 for the card itself), the same price as 12 rides. Bonus information: If you are landing in JFK, then a ride with the metro to any parts of NYC is US$7.5 while a taxi cost from US$28 (Queens), US$42 (Brooklyn) or US$52 (flat rate to Manhattan + tolls and tips).
New York City is not cheap, but it can still be done on a budget. Using public transportation, eating at cheap places, drinking water/soft drinks (during summer there are free tap water all over the city), sleeping in a dorm or something equivalent, then you should be able to live for US$70. It is hard to do it much cheaper and note that tours and attractions are not included. Expect around US$90-100 for living and an occasional paid activity e.g. watching a musical, going to a museum and so on.
Money saving tip: Some museums e.g. The American Museum of National history have a suggested general admission, this mean that you can pay a lower price than the admission they are showing on the signs. So you might just pay US$10 instead of the US$22 that they suggest, but they wouldn’t allow you to pay any price (you can’t do it online though). A lot of places do also offer student discounts, so bring you student card, if you have one!
