TriBeCa’s Message

    By: Gabriela Yareliz If there is a concept worse than the idea of hell, my day came from that place. It was one of those: get-scammed, watch-a-father-get-no-bail-and-glance-back-at-his-wife-and-child-before-being-taken-away, get-ice-cream-that-has-no-flavor-and-once-you-accept-its-flavorlessness-you-find-a-hair-in-it, kind of days. My standards of professionalism are pretty high I’d say, and I often end up annoyed or frustrated at the world when I feelContinue reading “TriBeCa’s Message”

The Florida Lifestyle

By: Gabriela Yareliz Every state has a different vibe and stereotype, right? I haven’t fully discovered New York’s identity. I’ve discovered New York City’s identity, but not the state’s. I need to spend more time outside of the city. But Florida, I know Florida well. I stood many hours sweating at bus stops on UniversityContinue reading “The Florida Lifestyle”

Love’s Telepathy, Thrice

By: Gabriela Yareliz Love is a lot of things. We can go down a list that resembles 1 Corinthians 13 or a wedding vow. Love is powerful, sacrificial and one of the greatest, if not the greatest, force in the world. And while it’s all those things and more, it’s interesting to think of howContinue reading “Love’s Telepathy, Thrice”

Walk with me through Central Park

By: Gabriela Yareliz First things first, the quality of the photos is not the best. They came from my phone. Later, I will post some better ones I took with my camera, but my camera decided to pass out mid-walk, hence the phone photos. But it will give you an idea of the beautiful autumnContinue reading “Walk with me through Central Park”

How I Found Bmore Charm

By: Gabriela Yareliz The first time I went to Baltimore, I saw the harbor area. It’s a beautiful area with little boats and bright lights. Very reminiscent of La Rochelle, France, except it misses the old-time charm La Rochelle undoubtedly has. I stood under an umbrella with my host who was attempting a Skype sessionContinue reading “How I Found Bmore Charm”

New York City: Vintage French Carnival, ‘Fête Paradiso’

By: Gabriela Yareliz I was so blessed to be able to pay a visit to Governors Island. Fête Paradiso, a vintage French carnival, has been running on the island since the end of July, and it will go until the last weekend of September. We had a nice time. The island is stunningly quiet comparedContinue reading “New York City: Vintage French Carnival, ‘Fête Paradiso’”

New York: Brooklyn beaches

By: Gabriela Yareliz Yes, a new addition to my New York series. As summer has come to a close, I went with my Russian dolls to the Manhattan beach (ironically in Brooklyn), we ate at Nargis, an Uzbek place in Brooklyn with an amazing Avocado salad, and then we hit up the fruit market, BrightonContinue reading “New York: Brooklyn beaches”
