Our numbers have dwindled. People have left for the UK and beyond one by one, leaving just a few of us in NYC. And today it was time for some more goodbyes, so we headed to the iconic steps at Times Square for a few more moments of fun and laughter.
Okay so let’s start with the fact that this isn’t actually a hotel. It’s a motel, in the middle of nowhere. Then let’s move onto the fact that when we arrived, they’d given away our TWO reserved rooms (each with 2 double beds in – there were 5 of us). So yeah. Not a great … More Hotel Review – Capri Lynbrook Hotel Inn
So camp is over. The last 67 days (yes I counted) have been some of the best, the hardest, the most fun, the most stressful, the most awesome days ever, and I was so sad to get on that bus and watch Sloane disappear into the distance. But before I tell you what I’m doing … More Post-Camp Adventures
On my last day off, I went to NYC with my friend Jack to introduce him to Bear Grylls, who was there on business. It was an awesome day, nice to get out of Camp for a while and do something different. To prove that it was real and that Bear was actually there, we … More Photo Of The Week: When Jack Met Bear
I left my camera in the room last night so couldn’t upload any photos…so here’s a few that I took yesterday of my first (very wet) day in NYC!

I think it’s definitely one of my favourites, the way it stands so tall and proud among the enormous buildings that surround it. It’s also one of the … More Apple Store Challenge: 5th Avenue, New York City
Times Square is somewhere I had always wanted to visit…it’s featured in so many films that I love, and is generally a pretty iconic place. And it definitely didn’t disappoint. I stood there in the street, twirling around in awe, looking like a classic tourist, absolutely dumbfounded by the flashing lights, honking cars and streams … More Photo Of The Week: Times Square, NYC
On my 2nd day in New York City I wandered up 5th Avenue for a spot of shopping on my way to Central Park. Just before I reached the park I saw the most beautiful Apple Store I’ve ever visited (in case you hadn’t already noticed, I’m a huge Apple fan). All shiny and made … More Photo Of The Week: Fifth Avenue Apple Store, NYC
Towards the end of my time in New York, I thought I’d better take a trip up the Empire State Building, just to see what all the fuss is about. And boy was I in for a shock…it was like nothing I’d ever seen before. I got up to the top (well, not the very … More Photo Of The Week: Empire State Building, NYC
