Humans of New York: A Tiny Traveler
For one of the
final posts in the Blogtember Challenge we are asked to pretend
that we were asked for advice from a photographer working for Humans of
New York. Last weekend Mark and I went with some friends to Brooklyn and it was
so much fun. We were celebrating Tori's birthday and Mark and I's 1 year
wedding anniversary. Along with answering Bailey's prompt I also wanted to
share some photos from our trip!
Picture this. You've been stopped on the street by
the photography of Humans of New York, and he asks, "What advice would you
give to a large group of people?" Share a picture of yourself along with
the advice.
It is
so important to never compromise kindness and decency just because
someone treated you poorly in the past. This is something that I've learned
over the last year or two and I am so glad that I did. That might sound
strange, but I know now what it's like from both sides and I would much rather
be myself, be kind and caring, believe in others and celebrate a community that
builds people up instead of complains and criticizes. This is the advice I
would give a room full of people: be kind and believe in one another. Build our
future in a positive light, together!
What a fun prompt! Now here are some shots from our
weekend in Brooklyn.
We stayed at the BKLYN House Hotel. We ate at egg,
Extra Fancy, Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, Blue Bottle Coffee, Matchaful,
La Colombe Coffee, Dough Donuts, and Love & Dough pizza. We visited the
Brooklyn Bridge, the Pier, Dumbo (and the spot where we got engaged),
Williamsburg, and a photography exhibit called Photoville.
Finally, we shopped around at West Elm, Catbird, powerHouse books, Warby
Parker, Whisk,
and the Paper Source shop. Such a fun weekend away!
