Are you visiting NYC in the summer and have no idea where to start with planning your trip? In this video I have curated a full day in Midtown Manhattan (mostly) and I take you through some of my favorite spots. Midtown isn't always the worst lol, there are real gems that keep me coming back. We do touristy things in style!! I have a part 1 of this series that explores manhattan below 14th street and a little bit of brooklyn so check that out after this for more recommendations! What other areas do you wanna see me explore in this series?

thanks for your patience! had a few technically difficulties getting this exported and uploaded but we're good now 😅I decided to take a week off from cat content but Gordo is doing super well and i have more updates regarding him and his siblings coming up next week! Let me know your favorite NYC spots in the comments or any areas you want me to explore next in this series 💘

Ya know what...sometimes my Insta feed decides what I NEED to see. I'll be in NYC for NYC Marathon. ACK! Im staying at Pod 51 (hotel) btw 2nd & 3rd Ave's. Lately Ive been alerted to some charming tucked away free public spaces...little "parks". Ive saved them so I can check em out when Im there in November. #1 is Paley Park @ #3 E 53rd St. There's waterfall! Next is Greenacre Park #217 E 53rd St! Next is Cohen Park #121E 57th St btw Park & Lex. Another waterfall! ALL are free outdoor parks. Walking distance to Central Park. Ive actually been to Cohen Park a few times. Just stumbled onto it on my walk home from the gym one day. all of them are A little Oasis...close enuf but on the outskirts of Central Park South & 5th Ave tourist traffic. If you decide to explore these free peaceful outdoor places in another video please check these spots out! I was LEGIT panicking when you didn't upload yet ngl. I need a weekly Chill Chelsea Video to keep me grounded & connected to YOUR chill vibes!

Have you ever taken the train from Queens to Nassau County? There’s a park that’s just as big as Central Park called Eisenhower Park. I highly recommend checking it out.

I love these NYC videos, I miss that city every day!! These videos are so fun to watch and you are so laid back and comfortable filming in public (just in general i feel like you radiate so much comfort and confidence). And just some appreciation for blurring out people on video, really shows how considerate you are!! Playing pool on your own and getting a little drink after is giving main character. And the croissant while there's jazz music playing in the park, isnt that just perfect😭 Idk what it is girl but you're just the coolest person to me. Was having such a bad few days but this snapped me out of it for a good 25 minutes and 11 seconds. Love you! xx💕

I don't live in NYC but seeing you go around and having fun by yourself exploring your city always inspires me and my hubby to out and explore our locality. It's fun! Our fave thing to do is a game that we call "Get Lost" and we just drive or walk around and try to explore without a gps (where safe of course.) Then when one of us is hungry or has to pee, or simply done and ready to go home, we either try to make our way back without a gps or sometimes we break down and just use it haha. It's one of our favorite ways to date. I may have written about this before on one of your other videos for I am too also having a brain fog day LOL My bad if that is the case hahaha!

I used to go to NYC every summer as a kid to stay with my Uncle and Aunt in the Upper West Side. It was always sticky hot and even as a kid I was “ugh”, but still, I LOVED the city. Then, as an adult I made my first holiday season trip there and I was like, “ohhh yeah, THIS is where it’s AT!” I’ve never experienced the city in Spring or Fall, hopefully someday! Central Park always pulls at my strings, the seasons there must be a wonderful thing to take in! Aw man, I miss New York! 🥹

@@megmulholland4518 My best visit was in late October. Central Park was beautifully colored foliage, the nighttime air was cool and crisp, it was also Halloween in the Village, and the Yankees/Sox World Series was happening, plus the NYC Marathon. The city was vibrant and on the verge of the the holiday season. Second best was Thanksgiving Day and the week following. Beautiful time.

Well, in truth I think my heart belongs to Gordo now, but NYC is definitely in second place. 😻Thank you, Chelsea, for another New York adventure that tugged my heartstrings and made me nostalgic for my own outings back in the day. This month (June) marks ten years since I moved back out of New York and I swear I experienced a solid two years of heavy NY homesickness.
