BROOKLYN + NYC


Just got back from a little New York roadtrip with three friends. Very inspiring trip partly due to the fun surroundings but mostly because of the creative group we traveled with. The main purpose of the trip was to get our friend Josh Raskin aka..Kids & Explosions to his show at Glasslands Gallery in Williamsburg. Other road trippers included, Lauren Pirie and Kathryn Macnoughton. We stayed three nights in Williamsburg at a Smart Apartments building and two nights in Manhattan at the Jane Hotel. I had not been back to New York since I lived there five years ago so Josh, Lauren and Kathryn helped us find great places to eat and shop.
