New York city solo and cheap!

You will NEVER feel lonely in the city which never sleeps!

Travel alone means having more fun then you imagine, you can meet more places and people if you're not depending on someone else's opinion! Travel alone can be as safe as travel with other people and it will bring you unique experiences and it make you realize you're braver then you thought!

So read our tips and we promise you will want to buy a plane ticket to NYC afterwards!

• Traveling alone doesn't mean staying alone

One of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world will never let you be alone. Get to know the locals, try the neighborhood restaurants, chat with new yorkers and other travelers, don't be afraid to say something wrong! The best way to interact with other people is by staying in a hostel. Hostels are THE BEST PLACES to make new friends, ask for information and find that travel partner with who you'll become best friends throughout the trip.

• It's gonna be cheeeeap

You will eat whenever you want, catch the public transport when you're tired, rest. You can wait for the schedule in which attractions are free (yes, there's such thing in NYC!!!) or if you can't wait just find a free attraction, there are so many in New York, anyway!

• Yes, it is safe

Keep in mind some safety measures which you would have anyway being alone of with friends: take care of your belongings, be surrounded by people, don't walk alone during the night in suspicious neighborhoods... have some cash and a charged phone and you'll be fine!

Lucky us, New York allows us to get to know its wonders without entering in a lot of places. Just the city itself worth it! These are the places you can't miss:

1. Museums:

2. The Statue of Liberty

Central Park is the most famous and doesn't have an entrance cost. If you're lucky, maybe you'll be able to assist to some live TV show or the shooting of a movie!
