Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

Manhattan, New York, USA

May 2014 - Jul 2014

Manhattan, New York, USA

I loved how alive the city is. You can get breakfast any time of the day and find a pharmacy open at 2am. LOVE NYPD!!!
Although New York is so modern there was a slight racial incident which the NYPD quickly sorted out. Also its kind of dirty like any city.
