Celebrate Love in NYC

New York City is the most exciting city in the world. What better place to explore and celebrate love and romance? It always makes me smile to come across a happy couple when I’m wandering. In celebration of Valentine’s Day, here are some of my favorite photos of romance in Manhattan.

If you’re alone like me this Valentines Day, don’t be sad. Every person (and critter) we meet is an opportunity to show kindness to a fellow traveler on this spinning rock.
