We arrive at the Big Apple in the afternoon. It´s a cold winter´s afternoon and it looks like it´s about to rain or snow. After the tiredness from the long flight, I just wanted to settle into one of the magnificent apartments in New York which we´d booked online, unpack my luggage, have a shower and have something light to eat. And that´s what I did. Although it was cold outside, the refreshing air made the walk lovely. We got to Sixth Avenue, very close to the beautiful apartments which would be our headquarters for a few days, and we took shelter in the Lifethyme Natural Market, a huge superstore where everything is ecological and biological. I couldn´t resist the temptation and bought different types of delicious and scented apples, some vitamins to avoid a possible cold due to the temperature changes and some delicious rolls prepared right there. A delight for my palate and my senses! But just as we were talking about on our return to our provisional house, the best was the service from their wonderfully prepared staff. New York is a huge city, of course, but it´s cosy and polite, where you can find everything you need if you´re following any kind of diet, whether it´s vegetarian, vegan or macrobiotic, although Lifethyme Natural Market can also be a good base for supplies for ´strict omnivores´.
