Curly Hair, Been There: New York City (Part One)

Curly Hair, Been There is a segment that explore the different places in the world I have been, and my experiences there. I recently went on holiday to New York and over the next few weeks I'm going to share all the cool things I did while I was there. Since I was there for a week, this is going to be a seven part series, a post for each day. So, let's get started!

Curly Hair, Been There: New York City (Part One)

I love this city. That's the first thing I'll say. As soon as I left that airport and got into the city, I was so happy. It was everything I ever dreamed it'd be. Overall, my week's trip to New York was amazing. 

We landed at JFK airport at about 4pm local time, after a long seven hour flight with American Airlines. The in flight entertainment and food was good, this was our meal: 


The excitement hit most when we were flying over the country and saw the ground from the window of the plane; we were nearly in New York!
Pretty cool view right?
Because we arrived fairly late, all we did on the first day was land, get to our airbnb, which was a lovely little flat in Brooklyn (a great borough by the way, would definitely recommend) and go and grab some snacks from on of the stores on our street. 
A nice view on the way
Our first day there was a great experience of the city, and we sat in our room planning the week and what exactly we would do the following day.

My post for Tuesday will be up next week, so make sure to follow my socials to keep updated!

Curly Hair, Been There: New York City (Part Six)

Curly Hair, Been There is a segment that explore the different places in the world I have been, and my experiences there. I recently went on holiday to New York and over the next few weeks I'm going to share all the cool things I did while I was there. Since I was there for a week, this is going to be a seven part series, a post for each day. Saturday was great fun. Curly Hair, Been There: New York City (Part Six) Saturday was another fairly chill day. we went to the New York Public Library first thing, to see the original Winnie the Pooh toys, which were so cute and amazing to see. If you didn’t know, I adore Winnie the Pooh. It was a big, pretty building, in which the A.A. Milne box was the highlight. This was in the children’s library though, and I don’t think children are going to appreciate these as much as adults are. Although, they are trying to keep the stories alive over the generations so maybe they do care. Anyway, that was super cool and I would 10/10 recom...

Curly Hair, What's in There? The Haunting of Hill House

Curly Hair, What's in There?  is a segment that will explore the random topics that are always circling my mind, things I want to talk about or things I want to share. The Haunting of Hill House  I know, I'm a little bit behind the curve on this one. It's taken me a long time to get around to watching this Netflix original series, but boy was I glad when I did. I like horror and I like drama and this series has it all. It explores some really serious themes while at the same time being exciting and scary. The series is about the Crain family, their experience in the haunted Hill House, named after its first owners, and how it affects them for their whole lives. I have a lot of thoughts and opinions about this show, so be prepared. To keep it as simple as possible, I'm going to talk about my five favourite things about this show. This contains SPOILERS for The Haunting of Hill House 1. Olivia Crain Carla Gugino as Olivia Olivia is the mother of the C...

Curly Hair, Been There: Disneyland Paris Summer of Superheroes

If you didn't already know, I live in Paris and I love all things Disney. So, naturally, I have an annual pass and go up there as much as I can. This summer, it's all things Marvel! I went yesterday to check out #StudioHero and review all of the super festivities (get it??) Disneyland Paris: Summer of Superheroes All of the superhero stuff is in the Studios Park, rather than the main park, but it's still really cool. You walk in and the first thing you see, before walking through the studio, is this massive Captain Marvel Statue:  And that's just the start. In the production courtyard, there are three more huge statues, of: The Hulk Black Panther And Iron Man. It's pretty cool to see all of this, and exciting to see your favourite heroes but bigger and better.  The decor isn't the end of the fun though! There's the opportunity to meet three big heroes: Captain Marvel, Captain America, and Spiderman. I met Captains Marve...
