New York

Arrived at jfk airport around 8pm after a 9 hour flight from poland. I had a business class ticket, and was able to turn my seat horizontally into a bed and get some sleep. On exiting the airplane i noticed presidential candidate Chris Christie was sitting behind me. Really wanted to engage with him but he was pretty busy chatting with others and i didn't want to bug him either.

Quickly booked a Manhattan hotel and my taxi got me there around 9pm. Walked around a tiny bit and found a nearby place that my front desk requested.

Then to another place where you pour your own beer. You get a special card from the cashier, load up money onto the card and then tap the card on the beer tap you want and it charges you by the ounce as you pour. Brilliant! 40 different beers/taps.

Watched the big event boxing match there with some new friends and then called it a night. On the way back to the hotel i could smell street food being cooked from a block away. Some sort of Egyptian version of a gyro or shawarma. So good! I didn't have any American dollars on me but the guy behind me was kind enough to take my 20 euro bill and give me 10 American in return and buy my sandwich for me. Czytaj więcej
