I am a Traveler...I think!

And if I'm not a traveler, I'd be a tourist. Most likely I'm somewhere in between. The difference between them I have learned from a class at Northern Arizona University, the same class that led me to create this blog.

New York - An Attraction?

So what city would you pick as the top tourist attraction the US? If you said New York, you were right on the money according to Michael Verikios at Travel Daily News. And I would have to agree with him. New York has everything; museums, restaurants, sporting events, musicals, operas, and culture. There is history in New York, from Central Park, to SoHo, to the top of the Empire State Building. You could spend a week and not ever touch on all there is to do and see in New York. There is Little Italy and Chinatown, uptown and downtown, bridges and tunnels. Try the subway if you want to experience some true New York culture…street musicians, vagabonds, businessmen, families, it’s all there underground. New York, in my opinion, is an ultimate tourist and traveler destination. You can make the experience as authentic as you’d like…or you can buy souvenir t-shirts on the corner for $5.00 each. Although if you think about it, when it comes to New York, even that could be authentic because it is a part of what New York is.

If you would like to read Mr. Verikios’ article, it can be found here.
