Recommendations for a local experience of New York City.
My experience
I lived in Larchmont, uptown New York, for two years, exploring Manhattan and Brooklyn on weekends. City hiking to discover new places is my go-to in New York.
During my occasional returns, I discover fresh spots and compile a list of favorites to share with you.
This city pulses with an unspeakable energy, a blend of diverse people from various backgrounds. Move from one neighborhood to another, and you’ll sense the atmosphere changing seamlessly. Art and creativity adorn every corner—there’s so much waiting to be explored!
