East coast of the usa - abstract. East coast of thailand
7 months before the trip
Every big idea starts with the words “What if...?”
One day at the beginning of 2012, on one of the cold February evenings, when you didn’t want to go outside, we gathered in a close group at the house of our friends. Over a glass of wine, we told each other stories, and once again I remembered how I went on a student program to the USA for 4 months. My enthusiastic stories inspired my husband and our friends, and I don’t remember who was the first to suggest:
“What if we go to America together?”
Hurray, we're going!
3
We selected “iconic” American cities for the trip because we wanted to cover only the best in 15 days. So, our golden list included New York (the cradle of American civilization), Washington (the capital, it’s like coming to Russia and not seeing Moscow), Austin (at the suggestion of Misha, a music lover and great blues connoisseur. As it turned out later, It’s not for nothing that this city was included in our list), Los Angeles (Hollywood!), San Francisco (a disco-style city), Las Vegas (the city of sin, which had the highest expectations), Chicago (gangster chic).
Travel route

For a company trip to be successful, every team member is important. We had to be with each other 24 hours a day, sleep in the same room, use the same toilet, decide where to go to eat, what to see. It is important that no everyday trifles disturb the harmony of relationships, otherwise the entire trip, no matter how exciting it may be, will be ruined. But we were lucky with our companions - we got along well and understood each other perfectly.

Preface to the main story, I want to emphasize that we did not have any special problems with obtaining visas. No additional documents were required, the whole procedure (interview) took no more than a minute.
Chapter 1. In which we discover the “sneaker rule”
For the thousandth time I look at the ticket printout: Domodedovo airport, 11.10 am, Transaero airline. My heart skips a beat - I’m returning to the USA, a country that I dream about so often! This trip would be much shorter, but, I was sure, much more exciting, since the guys had to discover America, and I myself had to see and learn more about it.
November 3, early morning. A full work week is behind us, which makes you feel tired and have a strong desire to sleep. The suitcase was packed on Thursday, the last check - did you take everything? Of course, they forgot something, and most importantly, they made a mistake with the suitcase itself. But more on that later.
Has our journey begun? I can’t even believe it – 7 months of waiting are behind us! How long have we waited for this moment, with what impatience we counted down last days and even a watch (all avid travelers will certainly understand me)…

We went through passport control in about 15 minutes: everything was fast, correct and polite. A feeling of relief immediately after the cherished Welcome to the United States! To be fair, it should be noted that a friend, who was on a flight 3 hours later than ours, stood in line for passport control more than 2 hours.
14.00. The day is in full swing in New York. And New York itself, so far terra incognita for my companions and a city of vivid memories for me, persistently calls us.
Since there are four of us, we decide that taking a taxi to the hotel will be both more reasonable and not much more expensive than public transport. In America, at airports there is a queue for taxis, which is led by a person specially trained for this purpose - a dispatcher. And we, obedient to his instructions, get into the cab that drives up to us.
By the way, we often had to use taxi services, but not once did we come across a taxi driver who hailed from, let alone Russia, or even from of Eastern Europe. Ethnic composition: 80% are Indian, 10% are African American, 5% are Arab and another 5% are white.
Our ne ragged Yellow Cab

In our first cab in America, the driver turned out to be Indian. He brought us to the address, but charged us exorbitantly - 90 bucks, explaining that due to Hurricane Sandy, the Brooklyn Tunnel was closed, and he had to take a detour. Perhaps he thought that we were rich Pinocchios, since he brought us to the hotel The Bowery Hotel- the most stylish hotel in New York, which looks something like this:
3
1
Then the thought occurred to me that rooms in such a luxurious hotel could not cost 2,000 rubles for two. But it appeared and somehow immediately disappeared, dissolving in that mixture of euphoria (from the fact that we are finally in the USA and we have such a cool hotel!) and panic (from the fact that we forgot to print out the bookings and there was no one at the hotel reception can find my reservation).
The lack of paper bookings, however, turned out to be not the biggest problem - we were armed with modern technologies in the form of tablets, laptops and smartphones, and Wi-Fi in the USA is not only in almost every hotel, but even on buses and airplanes. Showing our booking on the tablet screen, the girl at the reception smiled and noticed that this was not their hotel. The hotel we need is across the street.
But across the road there just happened to be a hotel, or rather a hostel, the rooms of which could easily cost 2,000 rubles for two. Remember this name - Bowery's WhiteHouse Hostel.
Judging by the photos on the booking, this hostel seems to be quite nice. In this case, I will tell you: do not believe your eyes!
3
However, in fact, unlike its pompous neighbor Bowery Hotel, the Bowery Hostel is inconspicuous and unprepossessing: old rickety glass doors, a room tiled like in Soviet sanatoriums, unfriendly staff and a bunch of restrictions like “don’t drink in the corridors” and “after 10 don’t make any noise.” This very thing “in the corridors” and the cash deposit should have alerted us, but we were too tired after the flight to adequately analyze the situation.
Since we arrived early, check-in was delayed by an hour. Thank God there was at least Wi-Fi in this hole. Then each of us considered it our duty to check in to the FourSquare app and get points for a new place before everyone else, and I did not fail to take advantage of the opportunity to check in at the hotel opposite. As it turned out through tips that users can leave about a particular place, Lindsay Lohan recently visited this five-star hotel. It was naive to think that for 2000 rubles we could have gotten a hotel room where Lindsay herself had been, and Rihanna too :)
3
Well, our hostel could confidently claim the title of the worst hostel of all time. It’s clear that you shouldn’t expect the luxury of its five-star namesake, but what I saw there was something I’d never seen anywhere else, and I’ve stayed in hostels in Europe and Asia.
Let's start with the fact that the numbers there represent both appearance, and by interior decoration stalls in a public toilet. Imagine that the rooms are separated from each other by thin plywood partitions, above which there is no ceiling. Out of shock, we couldn’t even take a photo of it, so I’m attaching a photo from Booking.com (although it doesn’t convey all the sensations of what we saw)
When we entered one of the cabins in which we were to spend the night, even the steely male nerves could not stand it. First - silence, and then a choice Russian curse.

After the Bowery Hostel, sneakers became a household name for the worst thing that could happen. All the other places we lived didn’t seem so terrible. Someone's forgotten sneakers instantly turned us into undemanding Spartans, enjoying the simple blessings of civilization - clean sheets, a separate shower and a normal ceiling above our heads.
Needless to say, we immediately went down to the reception, took a deposit for the night and went out into the arms of a city unfamiliar to us.
Chapter 2. In which we learn about the consequences of Hurricane Sandy
Our first, quite reasonable impulse was to try to rent a room at the nearby Bowery Hotel, but the prices there turned out to be simply 2 times higher than the maximum amount that we were willing to pay.
16.00, no place to stay for the night. But, thank God, the Internet today replaces thousands of calls and personal requests. While searching the Internet, we found our first catering establishment - an Italian restaurant, which on the occasion of Saturday was crowded with large noisy companies.
Without any further questions they let us in along with our suitcases. This is what a country of emigrants means!
1
Our first meal of delicious thin pizza turned out to be quite successful. The search for accommodation for the night was also successful. Due to Hurricane Sandy, the devastating impact of which also affected tourism, the Holiday Inn Soho hotel reduced prices by 2 times - one night for four for only 6,000 rubles! Compared to the damned “sneaker”, these were Queen Elizabeth’s apartments :)
Before leaving the Bowery forever and moving to Chinatown, I’ll tell you a little about the area that we had to leave due to housing problems.
Bowery is both a street and a neighborhood located in midtown Manhattan. Nothing outwardly remarkable place, which at first even scared us a little with its urban aggressiveness.
2
But, despite its nondescript nature, the Bowery is still of some interest to those who are interested in the history of cities. The Bowery is the first thoroughfare, which arose in the 17th century as a road from New Amsterdam to the farm (n. bouwerij) of Governor Stuyvesant.(information from Wikipedia)
This area, as well as Soho in general, was home to the creative elite and the aesthetically pleasing wealthy bourgeoisie...
2
But during the Great Depression, “prosperous” houses had to make room under the pressure of rooming houses. Now it’s clear why a wretched hostel could, on completely legitimate historical grounds, coexist with a luxurious five-star hotel!
However, Bowery, good bye. Nihao, Chinatown!
1
Praise be to the Internet and built-in jeeps that show how and how long the journey will take! It turned out to be no more than 15 minutes to walk at a leisurely pace to our new place for the night. Along the way, we finally got to know New York a little.
1
The cliche “city of contrasts” can often be heard in the same sentence with the Big Apple. But the first hours of our acquaintance coincided not with the splendor and eternal holiday of Times Square, but with the negativity of the poor streets.
2
We saw a bunch of garbage bags along the roads, beggars begging for alms, some half-crazed old people.
1
I don’t want to say that we specifically looked for any shortcomings and noticed exclusively negative aspects, trying to prove that “for them” not everything is as rosy as they show in the life-polishing films and TV series produced by Hollywood.
1
It just so happened that our journey did not begin with iconic sights or beautiful avenues licked for tourists with luxurious boutiques and expensive cars, but from ordinary New York streets, along which ordinary New Yorkers go about their business.
This comrade, although he walks around Times Square, clearly belongs to the “proletariat”. Perhaps this is the future Brad Pitt, who started his career in much the same way :)

New York is like any other metropolis in the world, but at the same time it has the same unique features, which distinguish it from others and make it unmistakably recognizable. multifaceted and unequal to itself.

I don’t know why, but looking at them, I was reminded of my favorite childhood movie, “Ghostbusters.”

The famous yellow taxis, into which heroes of various films and TV series literally jump on the go, trying to catch a love date or running away from being chased...

Giveaway humanitarian aid victims of Hurricane Sandy.

By the way, there were no obvious consequences of the hurricane, which, let me remind you, swept over the East Coast just a few days before our arrival - no fallen trees, broken storefronts, or mangled cars. Maybe all this happened, but the Americans somehow quickly cleaned up after the raging Sandy. And even the metro, flooded with salt water, was restored as quickly as possible...
3
Holiday Inn exceeded all our expectations: soft beds with feather beds cooler than those of the Princess and the Pea. A dazzlingly clean bathroom, fluffy towels that are comfortable to wipe your most intimate places with. After the “sneaker”, even the view from the window on the wall did not particularly bother us, but seemed to be a completely natural element of the urban landscape.

Chapter 3. Work like all New Yorkers
Tired after a tiring flight, we were unable to carry out the planned forced march to the sights. Having overcome ourselves, we nevertheless decided to take a little walk around Times Square in order to decorate our first day in the States with at least one bright and beautiful experience.
Next to the hotel there is the Canal Street metro station, where we went down. I will say right away that it is difficult for newcomers to navigate the New York subway, so it is better to travel around the city, especially over short distances, by taxi. If you have time to figure out the difference between routes A, B and C, which can all move simultaneously along the same color line, then feel free to go underground.
2
I remember that when I first found myself in New York back in 2005, I was scared on the subway because of the abundance of blacks and simply poor people around, and I clutched to my chest an expensive mp3 player with 124 MB of memory at that time. In 2012 I was no longer afraid of anything.
But an unexpected obstacle on our way turned out to be the same ubiquitous Hurricane Sandy, or rather, its consequences. The tunnel was flooded and we had to switch to another metro line.
A vivid impression was the scene that took place in a subway car on the way to Times Square. Some young girl turned to passengers asking for help. In appearance, she was not a beggar, but she asked for alms, explaining that she had small children in her arms and had nothing to feed them. The crisis, and she, like many Americans, lost her job.
At first I listened to this with interest. But then I, as, apparently, other passengers, began to be irritated by her pathetic speech that flowed in a continuous stream. Finally, someone couldn’t stand it anymore and told her: “Go work like all the other New Yorkers and stop complaining.” I think that Americans, just like us, dislike those who are accustomed to living at the expense of others or at the expense of the state, finding thousands of reasons not to fight for their well-being.
Chapter 4. This crazy, crazy, crazy world
We go out to Times Square. It’s already dark outside, which, however, works to our advantage. During the day the square does not look so impressive.

For some reason, I associate Times Square with the New Year, people kissing and hugging, and a machine-gun line of opening champagne bottles
