NYC Landmark: City Island Nautical Museum

City Island in the Bronx is a favorite destination for many New Yorkers looking for a beach-side escape where delicious seafood fair can be found.

NYC Landmark: Snug Harbor, Staten Island, NY

I first discovered the Snug Harbor Cultural Center in 2009 when I ventured into Staten Island via the State Island Ferry  with my young children.

I have a severe deathly fear of sharks. Sharks and drowning. I almost did drown once off the coast of Puerto Rico when I was a kid. The details are somewhat blurry, as I was only 5 at the time…but the sense of “this is it” stayed with me forever. And as teen in Samaná, [Continue]
