Calling all book lovers and NYC lovers!
Manhattan has so much to offer for the literary fanatic. Of course, thereโs so much literary history here (more to come on that in a future guide!), but we also have fantastic and old bookstores. I've been fortunate to frequent them as I look for books on my TBR, support indie sellers, meet authors, and enjoy learning the history of the stores.
This guide includes 6 bookstores with different genre specialties, histories, architecture and events like book signings. Scroll down and save this map so you can check them out next time youโre in Manhattan ๐

My SIL, her husband, and their two boys live in West Harlem so I have been out a couple times with my kiddos to visit. Here is my 24 hour itinerary in the big apple with my little travel buddy, Blake (my 4 yo best dude) for our most recent trip. We flew in late Friday night, explored all day Saturday, then Sunday was a day of indoor play for the boys. Follow along the map for our exact route and how we made the most out of our short time in the city.
We took the train from uptown to Central Park, traveling on foot from there until just before taking the train from Grand Central to the ferry in the evening and then back home.
If you've been to NYC, I'd love to hear your favorites in the comments. If you found this helpful, don't forget to save it to your faves or share with a friend

14 days on US East Coast ๐บ๐ธ New York to Washington D.C. on a budget without a car
๐ Ever since finishing university 3 years ago, I have been full time travelling and volunteering for conservation projects. I absolutely love my lifestyle however can't lie tight budget is one of the downsides. Instead of giving up my travel dreams I just decided to become resourceful and find the perfect itineraries that still fit my tight budget and let me explore the world. Before every trip, I spend weeks planning and researching and it's one of my favourite parts of the adventure. However, I know it can be overwhelming and tedious at times so I decided to share my research and my itinerary with you. All places mentioned here are places where I have been/stayed/eaten myself and can give you an honest review.
๐บ๐ฒ In fall of 2022 I backpacked through East coast of the USA by myself without a car. I was a bit sceptical how it would go since USA is not a very popular backpacker destination. But I was happily surprised how easy it was and kept going from New York down to Virginia, meeting new people on the way and exploring incredible places.
๐ฝIn this guide, you'll find an itinerary through the USA meant to take you through 3 states throughout 14 days following my footsteps. You'll also find description of 2 day trip into 2 more states. I'll share with you my recommendations of where to stay and what to do as well as a detailed outline of the full cost which adds up to 490$ without day trips (accommodation and transport). You'll also find links to the accommodations I stayed in and all the bus/train companies I used. You'll also find a spreadsheet so you can adjust the itinerary to your own needs.

Hotel websites provide limited information and naturally act as a promotional vehicle for the hotel property. Pieces of information materially impacting hotel selection decisions such as surrounding construction work, upcoming hotel renovations, neighbouring businesses, proximity to downtown, safety (just to name a few) are for the most part not disclosed to the general public. Nasty surprises can arise without proper research.
This is a comprehensive 30 question list to ask of hotels as part of your trip planning. Presented in email template form, you will gain a full picture into the hotel's location, facility, and room offering.
