My first ever solo trip | going to New York City for my 25th birthday

I celebrated my 25th birthday by taking a solo trip to New York City. I stayed at The Moxy Chelsea hotel. It was such an amazing trip filled with such great food at places like los Tacos No 1, 5 spice NYC, Factory Tamal, 7th street burger and Bleecker Street pizza. I met up and ran into amazing people while I was there, took a dance class at Brickhouse NYC, went to a disco party and went to see Lion King on Broadway. I'm so glad I was able to capture such amazing memories and put it into this vlog!

[@juhyassmin]

Hi! I'm planning a solo NYC trip for my birthday as well! What hotel did you stay in?! It looks great! Amazing vlog & Happy Belated Birthday!

[@sapphires.5050]

Omg I stayed at this hotel. If you can get a higher floor the views are amazing. Usually have to buy a King Suite. I called ahead of my trip and told them I wanted the highest floor. I wanna say my floor was the 26th. Could see the Empire State Building and time square from my room. No fridges or microwaves which sucks but an awesome location.

[@saradigota7201]

totally am going new york, but i wonder if its wort a visit, 1600 dollars for 3 days is expensive, totally diggin the vibe though🤗

[@Torifromflorida]

[@oensh05]

is it safe going to NYC as a solo traveler? l heard there’s some crime going some days night? i dont know?

[@teahgurl]

You will literally be fine. It is on most (Black) women to visit solo list.
