So, back to New York once again! This time I was staying in Brooklyn, in a place called The New York Loft Hostel. I would definitely recommend this hostel if anyone is looking for a good place to stay. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and they provide a map of the local area with a list of good places to eat, shop etc. which was very useful. Here’s their website if anyone wants to have a look!
I have to confess, the thing that I loved the most about the local area was the graffiti. I know it’s not for everyone, and whilst I’m not a fan of most graffiti, I do love it when they create intricate images. I just find them incredibly impressive (especially because I know I could never do anything like it!) I spent an afternoon just wandering up and down the local streets having a bit of an explore and taking pictures of my favourite finds. So here are just a few of my favourites…
