Love to see a nude beach reveiw in sandyhook

[@LittleRapGuy]

May I ask? Is there a beach in Sandyhook/Newtown?

[@bradleyshore4594]

My trip is 9 months away and I spend all my free time watching your amazing videos! I can not thank you enough for all of your help

[@Lyons_T-BAG]

Hi just replying to to see did you end up doing the trip. Did you enjoy it and would you go to NYC again? Hope all is well 😀😊

[@luisfabian2561]

I have been walking the Williamsburg bridge back and fourth since I was a baby

[@soniasanchez7942]

I walk the bridge every day to go to work! Such an amazing feeling 🙏

[@maryroberts2099]

read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn for a glimpse of Williamsburg during the early 20th century

[@GlacticSoul]

“Gentrifiers” 😂😂😂 “She said what she said” don’t apologize sis...great informative video🤗

[@peatyboweaty]

My grandparents grew up in Williamsburg in the 1950's. They both lived on Stagg St near Union Ave. After they got married they moved out to Long Island where our family still lives today.

[@Hansibansi100]

We were in Williamsburg to Smorgasburg in June this year and it was fantastic. Next time we will spend more time in Williamsburg.

[@mikesosa1146]

Thank you Sarah. Grew up in WB in the 50s and 60s. Loved it then. Love it now. Will always love it. Missed it when I was away. Hence why I live a little more than an hour away. Our favorite pastime back then was watching the gangs rumble or the guys doo wopping the in the corners. Not that I am a Vegan in any way but there is a now very famous vegan restaurant in the block I grew up. I have been there with my daughter and met Europeans visiting NYC come over to WB to eat at this restaurant at 197 Meserole St. The Irony is that I cannot afford to live in the hood I grew up. Thank you so much Sarah and good luck in all your endevours.

[@joselusarreta6139]

I love citi bike. I came from Arizona and it has bikes and scooters but i am glad there are a lot of public transportation here in NYC

[@laura_peruchi]

Loved it! Crossing the bridge is awesome and I love Westlight! You rock!

[@MRP3261]

B44-SBS goes from Knapp street in Sheepshead Bay to Williamsburg Bridge Plaza. The trip is about 1 hour.

[@justSTUMBLEDupon]

Yup! Give or take

[@migs.b]

I’m sorry for automatically assuming this was going to be a bad video about Williamsburg by the thumbnail. But great job, Sahara! You were honest about what kind of people live there and you gave EXCELLENT information about the neighborhood. New subscriber 👌🏽

[@antjaynyc]

Very cool video! One of my fav neighborhoods in the World. The Williamsburg Hotel is also a great rooftop place w a pool. And Sea restaurant is very cool.

[@SarahFunky]

Thank you! It's definitely a fun neighborhood. Great recommendations 😀

[@davidellis5141]

In November , I have 🎟 to both Nets & Islanders games. This will be a great way to spend the afternoon ! Thanks for the helpful hints. Take care.

Mr. Sarah! You kill it every time...🌷😁⚘

[@francesr49]

Born and raised in Los Sures Williamsburg and have seen the changes. I remember when even yellow cabs would refuse to drive you to Williamsburg because they were scared. Tho my experience was different I never felt fear you knew who was who Williamsburg was known as the well kept secret because for a very long time the rent was super cheap and you were a stop away from the city. Unfortunately because of the gentrification many who grew up and raised their families here have been pushed out because rent has pretty much tripled and for many working class who own properties now are forced to pay ridiculous home taxes while the billioners now building are getting tax breaks. Love how you mentioned the real changes through out the years. Good job! I love Williamsburg it is cool to find nice places to eat. Just wish the ones that have lived their all their lives didn’t have to suffer because they can’t afford to stay due to the ridiculous rent hikes😕

[@melirose89]

miguelina Rodiriguez live and grew up in Williamsburg by the south side too. It sucks seeing all the old places shutting down. The old guys don’t hang out in the front of their buildings playing dominoes anymore, no more street fairs every week. A lot of that culture is gone. I wish it getting safer weren’t at the expense of the community losing the culture it once had and all the minorities getting pushed out. It might not have been the safest growing up but there was a sense of community that you don’t see anymore.

[@Idagramos]

I agree, I have lived here since birth and still do. I do not agree when she says that the Puerto Rican community is getting smaller as if we are being pushed out by other cultures. I agree with you about the rent being too high and homeowners are paying rediculeous taxes while these other buildings going up are getting tax breaks, smh but the truth is the truth. Regardless, we thrive wherever we go with pride and dignity and we know who we are and what we bring to the community. Williamsburg is beautiful and I am still proud to say that I still live here for 59 years now and I'm not going anywhere unless papito Dios calls me to make my heavenly departure, otherwise, I'll be here and will continue to help my fellow man and be of service to my community. Esoooo!!

[@Idagramos]

A little more, she says that the Puerto Ricans are only in Los Sures but that's not true, we are all over the place.

Im obsessed with Williamsburg, the vibes are so chill. My favorite restaurant for dinner or drinks is Cafe Mogador

[@Kerannnng]

Dont come back. Hipsters are dying. Gang members and homeless from Brownsville and East Flatbush are taking their old turf back....

[@lotusssypringa]

@@Kerannnng I was just there again ....it's ok

I like how you called them "the gentrifiers" lol, cool video.

Ahhh, Sarah. I love your Videos. But, Could you please decipher what Jen was trying to say? Thanks

[@Jack-ti7mg]

Jen was telling a story about her birthday party at Freehold. Something about playing the arcade games being more fun while being drunk.

[@GingerChung2014]

Thank you for sharing your NY finds Sarah.

[@luislaplume8261]

It was known as the Domino sugar refinery with cargo ships loading via conveyer belt sugar sugar canes to the top floor for refining.

[@LuisYanes88]

[@lisannelenz]

I’m from Germany and plan on flying to NYC in May with my best friend. However, we will only be 19 when we’re there. I obviously know that the drinking age in America is 21 (which I don’t really care about since I’m not spending thousands of euros to get wasted lol) but I’m wondering whether we can still visit Rooftop bars and Speakeasies without drinking alcohol? I‘ve always wanted to visit those and see what it’s like...

[@annanorea795]

There are some rooftop bars u can visit during the afternoon, some even on Sunday but only accompanied by an adult(21+)

[@JayAura999]

Born and raised in los Aires Williamsburg Puerto Rican’s aren’t the only Spanish people , there is ALOT of Dominicans in Williamsburg

[@westtexasdave2140]

Look up Paster Jamie at New Beginnings Church if you ever are in Williamsburg. He is such a high energy great guy. He won’t push anything on you he’ll just make you feel welcome to the area. You’ll thank me later.

[@tejanikerroumi9633]

Amazing place Was working there

[@meow1992si]

Hi Sarah!!! I love your videos, you should do a video about the cheapest places to visit!!!! (= xo

Is it safe? Not on the Southside.

[@deoneastcoast]

Yes it is

[@RudieObias]

When I moved to Williamsburg in 2005, a bar owner on my block was shot because he owed the mob some money. This was the first week I lived here. And now Williamsburg is a hot tourist destination...

And Dominicans, come deeper into the southside love lol

[@christian-zs8uy]

Williamsburg to her was just Bedford ave and Dominoes park 😂

[@Jerrytb1]

Sarah, sorry honey but the Bedford Ave. area isn't all of Williamsburg. You mentioned the Puerto Rican area, sorry but it consist of all other Latinos too. Please do a complete video with all of the real Williamsburg and not just the touristy area of Bedford Ave and Domino Park. Please let me know if you'd like me to show you around.

[@Jimfromearthoo7]

I see more of her than anything else!🤔 you can show the area while talking and not focus the video on you. You you you you you. Check out Rick Steves. Get a few tips.😎

[@SarahFunky]

The video is not about me and most of the shots are not of me.

[@AlfredoPuente8]

Who is going to spend 3000$ in an appartment.

[@deoneastcoast]

Williamsburg seems really superficial it’s like people visit and dress like hipster just for the day 😅 which is fine do whatever you want. But the gentrification really sucked the culture away . But overall it’s a lot safer nowadays

[@originalnewyorker5833]

Still warm enough to visit the nude beach for a vlog 🇫🇷

[@stace_d]

Williamsburg is great for hanging out, shopping, eating, catching a concert.... Shame that it has gotten so unaffordable to live there. When I see the fancy new generic apartment buildings popping up, it so disheartening. The people who make the neighborhood hip, are the very ones that can't afford it

[@richardturner6981]

Hi, Sarah Funk! I think you're pretty and your high forehead indicates high intelligence. I gave you a like 👍 and subscribed.

[@BaJanBoiRy]

This vid isn't that accurate..... So there's no black people in Williamsburg huh lmfaoo sorry lady but smh
