NYC VLOG: Day in the Life Exploring the City and Living my Best Life

[Music] oh hello this is Taylor if you're new here here I am a 26-year-old former Management Consultant recently turned full-time Creator living and working here in New York City and welcome to my bedroom Terrace guys I forget every single year just how magical this city becomes when the weather warms up and I absolutely live for those Rogue random 70° days that we'll have in the middle of the winter sometimes the whole entire city comes out to play myself included and today we have another one although we're starting to have more and more I think the

season's actually just changing but regardless we have a packed day and best believe I'm taking you guys with me so maybe pack a little lunch get some water maybe go to the bathroom do what you need to do but uh let's get started shall we you don't actually think I leave my house without making coffee [Music] first okay actually needed to answer some emails but we're done I just signed contract for my next brand deal responded to a couple other things and almost finished my [Music] coffee kind of okay let's [Music] go [Music] I love

how even though it's a spring I still dress like a vampire I always will wow what a beautiful day everyone's out and about again well today is a Tuesday so not everyone some people have to work but you know a lot more than usual obsessed by the way with these blue fire escapes I think oh my God it's so cool really catches your eye I don't think it looks tacky [Music] okay prime example of why I love New York when the sun comes out you just run into friends what's up guys this is Harry how

Harry's awesome I know I say this all the time but it's interactions like this that make New York City feel like a playground for adults for such a huge City it is incredibly small and compact act at the same time I run into friends literally all the time and I absolutely love it it really makes it feel like a huge college campus in a lot of ways anyway Harry and I hung out here unexpectedly for almost an hour he's the absolute best we've been friends for like almost 8 years at this point and now please

enjoy this Montage of Harry being the kindest Heckler in the entire world you hop the best take a big run up H in a skip you can do it sir I can see you just got to limber up a bit you got to hurdle it you want to boost I can like you you will I'll do it why are you not on the other side of the fence I don't trust her to keep a bit of distance are you both British just me she's Californian I like your hat s by the way very cool best

hat of the dayler never like a nice one obviously yeah that was so much fun I'm so glad you guys got to meet Harry he's a very good egg all right we're actually going to take the bus to our next location because when the weather is this nice I just want to stay above ground so let's do that I also think the bus in New York City is so underrated bus is really good on some [Music] routs this stop is speed [Music] in all right guys here we are at the Oculus this is the World

Trade Center Transportation Hub and a mall it's a mall I'm about to go make a big purchase inside of there at a tech store all right but first some quick specs on this bad boy this was designed by one of my favorite Architects Santiago krava he is a Spanish architect and I've actually had the pleasure of seeing a number of his Works including the Arts and Sciences Center in Valencia Spain which is where he's from I'm going to have to dig up some pictures of me in front of there it was like Circa 2019 I

had really long damaged bleach blonde hair I'll find some pictures but anyway here's another one and I know that this bad boy cost $4 billion to make which was double the original estimate baller but apparently a pain in the ass for the city anyway he's not even one of my favorites because I think it's super visually beautiful it is beautiful but anyway I just know that he really pushes the boundaries of what is actually structurally possible and all of his works really resemble like bones and living things and like a lot of spines also for

reference it is right outside the World Trade Center which is this big guy and Ground Zero which we can go take a look at in a few [Music] minutes here it is it's pretty iconic look at all those little ants down there am I right this is uh the tech store if you've ever heard of it all done I made the [Music] purchase There It Is by the way in all its Glory I will show you guys the purchase I made once we get back home but first and it's a cool one but first I'm

going to show you guys Ground Zero this is where the original footprint of the Twin Towers was and they have every single person's name printed out organized by flight I believe and I just think it's really really well done um I remember finding a YouTube video at some point showing what the life is like of the guys who go down in there and clean it my my YouTube rabbit holes you know but anyway would recommend coming to see it if you visit the city um yeah I think it's very well done stand clear the closing

[Music] please [Music] hello let's get into it oh okay so this bad boy cost me a pretty penny much like the krava building this also cost $4 billion but the specs on this are very powerful powerful specs and I realized as I was buying this this is the single biggest purchase I have ever made it's been kind kind of hard for me in my adulthood to break free of my Frugal mentality but I really am trying to become more comfortable with spending money on the things that really matter this is a laptop if you guys

didn't realize and I just realized while my computer was crashing a couple months ago while I was trying to edit a video technology should not be the bottleneck it's just silly for me to not have the best possible machine for me to do my job anyway not to make a huge deal out of this but this is exciting this has 64 GB of RAM because video editing especially editing 4K footage which I do and the more complex the project is with a lot of layers like it just takes up a lot of memory so I

really upgraded the memory I got more than what I actually need cuz that will future proof this thing and it also has 2 terab of internal storage yeah the specs can go even up from here I have a friend who has maxed out specs and that's an $8,000 computer but this should do and I'm so excited to use it okay I'll shut up and let's do a little ASMR here shall we ta I'll give you guys the first [Music] hello hi howdy all right we will play with this later I actually don't have much time

to waste right now because we need to get ready so let's do that anyways we're going to go meet a friend for drinks in the West Village and it's a Tuesday mind you I love my job yeah one of the benefits of being a full-time creator that I actually didn't anticipate is that more often than I expected am I planning my days around the weather obviously that applies a bit more in the spring and summer if I'm planning a vlog or something like that I can do it on a day that I know is going

to be sunny and nice like today and then when I see that it's going to be kind of gross I can try to make that like an editing day you know what I mean an unanticipated benefit but it's pretty sweet this is the perfume I've been wearing for a few months now I absolutely love it Gucci Bloom not sponsored I wish okay let's [Music] go all right I just bed to West Village and ran into another Trend I always say New York feels like a playground for adults and that's exact why anyway about to get

to the bar it is a little chillier now I'm not going to lie but it's still still feeling good vibes are [Music] good all right here we are at land the Sleep wait can you pronounce it you speak French landri uh landri Pizzeria that sounds right here we are my first time here we're in the West Village I know this place super popular there's always a line up right now right [Music] here that's all I have to [Music] say I just got home a little bit ago what a fun day I'll tell you more when

I get in bed cuz I still have to shower take off my makeup brush my teeth but then I want to chat with you guys a little bit I guess one kind of unfun update to keep things real I think I completely effed up my bed sheets I washed my really really nice cream sheets with a black jacket that I wear I thought I had washed the black jacket before but this must have been the first time and so the black kind of stained the sheets and I don't totally know what to do about it

so that's not fun anyway I'm not going to put them in the dryer cuz I know that will just set the stain and I'm going to troubleshoot it tomorrow but for tonight I'm going to sleep on top of my throw blanket and I'm using this t-shirt as a pillowcase oh well that's life let's shower [Music] people have asked me my skincare routine for a long time I guess you're kind of getting it now I've never posted one it's tough though because my routine truly differs in some way shape or form pretty much every single night

depending on what my skin needs I'm getting in my little makeshift bed here I'm going to read my book for a bit before I go to bed but I just was thinking about today and it's days like today that just make me so happy to be in New York City it really is just the liveliest Place filled with the best people in the world I mean you know my friends and today all I had planned was just a day out on the town kind of by myself and bringing you guys along and then like running

into Harry in the park and then going for drinks later and getting pizza at that place like that was all just totally spontaneous and I don't know it's stuff like that that just make me happy to be in the city and also just really grateful for this huge career transitionary part of my life transitionary that's a word but yeah this career change has been both incredibly exciting and very very challenging in many ways but most importantly it's been very fulfilling and for that I super grateful so anyway thank you guys for spending the day with

me today I know this uh this setup looks a little Jank right now normally I have really big fluffy pillows in a super super inviting bed you guys saw it this morning just remember this morning but we're keeping it real anyway if you guys made it this far and enjoyed this video at all please thumbs up subscribe it's totally free and it helps me out so so much and I have some really exciting content coming soon that you won't want to miss so thank you I appreciate you thank you for being here and until next
