Do you have a preferred garden or park where you love to spend time? What draws you to it?
Yes!! I love Cooper River Park in NJ. It has a nice water view that I’ve been going to since a child, 3.1 miles all around (high school cross country track meets held there) and it also happens to be where I got married. Safe to say I’m fully connected to this park lol
Have you ever visited a famous waterfront city, and what did you like most about it?
Tha Camden waterfront! You can see Philly from there and it is so beautiful any time of day.
Are there any bridges on your bucket list to visit?
I’m dying to visit the bridge in San Francisco where full house was at lol
What is one item you can not picnic without?
My journal. I feel most grounded and connected to God when I’m picnicking anywhere and always feel like it’s the perfect time to leave myself or God a little note!
Great read and amazing pictures. You should take up photography because I can’t believe these views exist in New York
These all seem like beautiful city escape-type visits for when the noise becomes a little too loud. I love a little oasis that the senses can get lost in. Wave Hill especially reminds me of some parks in Mexico City (I can't remember the names at all) and also El Encuentro/ this café and park called Corazón de Jade were my go-to nature spots when I lived in San Cristobal de las Casas in Mexico.
Thanks for the tour! So beautiful. I loved Wave hill and had never heard of it. I love discovering hidden or unknown places near home. When I visit my daughter in New Orleans, there are always new places: gardens and sometimes 100 year old cemeteries with willowy trees, to walk through.
Wave Hill is a hidden gem, certainly. I love New Orleans for that exact reason. So much has been loved on for a very long time. The place is steeped in history.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful outdoor spaces. There is an arboretum here in Baltimore MD called Cylburn Arboretum. It is tucked in an urban suburban neighborhood of the city & whenever I go there, I feel like I am transported somewhere else. It has a manor house, beautiful benches, a walking path & trails that you can hike. I’ve always wanted to see the San Francisco Bay bridge. It’s on my list.

The champ is here 💪🏾😂
I love Cooper River that much more now that I got the back story 🥹
Sounds like we need a Cali trip? 🧐

I know exactly what you mean by its reminder of CDMX parks. 😂Some do go 0-100 with tree density. Like stepping into a whole new world.

I love this list and will try it all out! My favorite garden is probably Untermyer Gardens (and they have an adorable newsletter too)
Hi Natasja! I’m glad you enjoyed ☺️. I’ve never been to Untermyer Gardens but thanks for sharing - Yonkers is not too far away.

You know all the spots! 🙂 thanks for sharing another place for me to go.
The Golden Gate Bridge is on my list too. I’ve never been to San Fran or Northern California.
