Things to do

Visiting New York has always been my dream since I saw the series "Gossip Girl" and "Friends", which have been recorded there. I´m in love with that city, and when I grow up I would like to live there for some years. There are many incredible places apart from the ones that I have talked about in my project, but those are the best known and most emblematic.
