…is the place I wish to visit.
When I tell people “I’d love to go to New York one day”, the reaction stays the same “What a surprise, who doesn’t want to go there?”
Let me tell you why exactly NYC is my first choice when it comes to America.
#1 Half my family lives there. Since I know them only from Skyping,
sending each other letters and photographs, it would be a great opportunity to
finally get to know them in real, they’re part of me and I’m curious about my
roots.
#2 New Year’s Eve at Times Square – I am sure that it is the perfect
start into a Happy New Year. What I am most curious about is the spectacular
Ball Drop. I can’t imagine a huge Ball of light being dropped into a crowded
city. A friend of mine told me it was fascinating and breathtaking when she was
there last year.
#3 Shopping! Show me one girl that doesn’t think about shopping when she
thinks about New York City. I’ve been told that if I’ll go there, I should take
a nearly empty suitcase with me to fill it there.
#4 The Statue of Liberty or Lady Liberty, officially called Liberty
Enlightening the World. As it is a monument symbolizing the United States, it is worth to be seen. The statue commemorates the signing
of the United States Declaration of Independence. It was given to the United States by the people of France, to represent the friendship between the two
countries established during the American
Revolution.
#5 To get to know the country, the people, their culture and improve my
language skills. What I plan, is to work in New York for some months, maybe as au-pair, and live
there to really get to know my city of dreams.
