Pics - Nomad Notes

Oct 27

We walked around the entire West Lake (about 15 km / 9 mi) with a good Italian lunch and tea and coffee breaks in between. The amount of cafés around the lake and in Hanoi in general is just incredible. Hanoi has such a strong coffee (& tea) culture. Trust me as someone from Vienna I don't say this easily!

Hanoi, a city in motion! 🛵
All photos shot in Tây Hồ.

Time is flying by. I can't believe that our second month in Hanoi is about to start! We found a lovely apartment in Tây Hồ and feel very much at home here.

All photos were shot in Quảng An our neighborhood in Tây Hồ.

New York stays my favorite city!

2 - Street Art in Brooklyn

3 - NYC has so many beaches, the People's Beach is one of my favorites

4 - Washington Square Park

5 - Having fun in the Whitney Museum of American Art

6 - The subway can be disgusting AND beautiful.

7 - Built in 1930, the iconic art deco Chrysler Building is the tallest brick building in the world

8 - Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, what a lovely spot, not only for the plays.

9 - Neighborhood house (Bed-Stuy)

10 - Manhattan or Brooklyn, LOTS of people ride Citi bikes and the bike infrastructure is getting better too.

Riding on a bike & being in the moment is sometimes all it takes for me to be happy.

We're living life to the fullest here in NYC!

1. The views of the Manhattan skyline from Brooklyn are the best.

2. Ran my first race in almost 2 years, completing 5k in 21:21 Photo credits: @j.justjay

3. One World Trade Center, the highest building in the Western Hemisphere, is a symbol of the resilience of NY.

4. We had a blast at The Drums concert in Webster Hall.

5. Brownstones in Brooklyn are just gorgeous.

6. The Flat Iron building, one of the iconic buildings in NYC, looks good even under scaffolding. Lots of things are currently being renovated in NYC and lots of new things have been developed. This city is constantly changing.

7. Little Island, a cute new park in Manhattan built above Hudson River.

8. Completed in 1931, the art deco Empire State building is still one of the tallest buildings in NYC.

9. Brooklyn Tower, Brooklyn's newest and tallest addition to its skyline, tops out at 1,073 ft / 327 m and can be seen from afar.

10. @kobrastreetart , one of my favorite street artists (from Brazil), portraying two idols of empathy and peace in Chelsea.

We took the A all the way up to 207th Street and walked the entire length of Manhattan. This city is so rich in diversity and history that you can explore something new every day. ❤️🗽❤️

La Paz is very different from any city I have been to. The 10 cable car lines, the different architectural styles within the city, the mountains surrounding it and the city's high altitude create a unique atmosphere. I would have loved to explore it more, but it's time for us to move on.

What a rad public transport La Paz has! 😍
