Walk with Me, Part 3 – Soho

Soho is one of my favorite places in NY. And it’s not because of the fancy stores (I don’t have the desire to buy a Chanel bag, I want someone to give me that bag for free.) It’s about the people. There is no other neighborhood where people look better. I call Soho a land of beautiful people. They’re also fashionably dressed and in good shape. Well, you have to be, if you want to be noticed while you’re strolling there. I walk there a lot. 

I usually get off at the Spring Street subway station (C, E train) and walk Spring Street up to West Broadway. Then I start walking around these streets – West Broadway, Spring, Prince, Broome, Wooster, Mercer. 

I look at the stores, and sometimes I will go inside, but I mostly enjoy looking at people. So many gorgeous guys. Sometimes you can’t even believe that there can be so many good looking people in one place. I really want to live there one day. Maybe in two years?

Here are some of my favorite places:

Sunrise Mart – Japanese market with matcha treats (cookies and matcha powder), 494 Broome Street

Mariebelle, exclusive hot chocolate spot, 484 Broome street
