I live in n.y city and was offered a lob in albany with no family in albany and a baby should i take the job.? -

IMO Albany is a much better place to live and raise a child than NYC.

first - this is not a travel questionsecond - we cannot answer this for you. you need to do what is best for you and your child, and total strangers are not ones to ask.

How Old Do You Have to Be to Go to a Night Club? -

I m almost eighteen and they seem really fun. Do you have to be at least 21 to get in? I d imagine because of the alcohol.And not just Las Vegas. Anywhere.

No, most nightclubs have younger teen nights which offer you admission from 18-20, and some offer you admission but no wristband for the alcohol, some its supposed to be 21 to get in, but the bouncers dont check ids (they let the bartenders do it so still no beer), and still others not until your 21. Ive lived in 4 different states, and each of them have different rules. In Vegas itll always be 21 if Im not mistaken due to the alcohol and the open gambling and sometimes even strippers (heck ya!)

Vegas and most hot clubs in the US you need to be 21. Many clubs however have an 18 to party, 21 to drink policy. You usually get a wristband as a sign that you can drink or they stamp your hand if you can t. The wristbands though I found in my freshman year of college are easy to manipulate.

21 in most places. Some 18, depending on the law of a certain community (or state).

Im travelling to new york alone and scared!? -

hi everyone, im a 25 yr old female from brisbane and in 3 weeks i depart on a US holiday. im going to be with a contiki tour group for 99% of the trip,but i do have 3 days prior to the start of the tour in NYC alone! im freaking out being in such a big,busy place by myself. anyone got any tips? i already figure i wont go out at night(unfortunately). thanks heaps for ur help.also what is must-see/must-do in NY apart from the obvious liberty island, central park etc...also what denominations of money are quarters(25c i suppose) nickels and dimes??ta much:)

Hello! NYC is a wonderful city! I ve lived here 20 yrs and I love it!I do understand your apprehension, since most folks only know the Apple from what they see in the news and movies, but it is not any different from any large city! As far as safety is concerned, simply exercise the same practice you d use in any busy urban area, such as Sydney and Melbourne.Now to your next question, what to do in the city... What isn t in New York would be a shorter list!In Queens you ve got things like the Botanical gardens, the Museum of Science, Museum of the moving image. In Brooklyn, there s the Brooklyn Zoo, Museum of Art, the boardwalk and more... Staten Island and the Bronx have many things to do and places to visit and of course Manhattan has more things to do than I could begin to list!Our money is simple enough, the paper denominations you ll most likely handle are: $1, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100. Coin denominations are: Pennies (1 cent)Nickels (5 cents)Dimes (10 cents) Quarters (25 cents)You might get the occasional $1 coin.Once you arrive, I think you ll find this city much friendlier than you might have expected! I d be happy to have an email correspondence to answer more specific questions!

I m from the UK and I feel safer in NY than I do here. It s a lovely place. The first time I visited I thought it was going to be scarey like the movies and was so pleasantly suprised. Just be careful as you would at home and don t go wandering off into any unsuitable areas. I felt quite safe at night in the touristy areas - it s mostly tourists. The shops will be fully decorated for Christmas so you need to do some serious shopping. Enjoy the hussle and bussle of NY, you will be fine.

Try the bus tours, they are fun.Try one of these companies..http://www.citysightsny.comhttp://www.newyorksightseeing.com/

New York is among the safest of America s large cities and crimes against tourists are taken VERY seriously. The most likely crime that you could fall victim to is buying counterfeit or defective goods. Stay away from designer goods sold by people who can t spell Gucci.America s monetary system is 100% metric so you will not have to deal with peculiar denominations such as shillings, ha pennies, tuppence, crowns or sovereigns as I did when I visited Ireland during the early 70 s just as they were transitioning from one monetary system to another.Please take a look at some of the links below for things to do in New York:http://www.associatedcontent.com/article��http://www.associatedcontent.com/article��http://www.associatedcontent.com/article��http://www.associatedcontent.com/article��http://www.associatedcontent.com/article��You will have a wonderful time.

Would nt worry.A little common sense willl get you by.Its nothing like the movies ..good or bad.Would not miss an evening outWould get onto the net before you arrive use the hotel resources for places to go things to see.NYC is easy to get around if you take it in small bites.Might just find a small club or cafe in or near your hotel.Always recommend the smaller cafes restaurants the street food from the carts.Not an official visit unless you have a NY hot dog, a big hot NY pretzelMoney is the easy part.About the only thing that is base ten.Quarters are 25 cents= 1/4 dollar, Dimes are 10 cents = 1/10 dollar , nickels are 5 cents = 1/20 dollar.Being a young lady , treat yourself to a trip to Tiffany s , a famous fancy jewelry storethat has some affordable things for regular people .Would not miss the museums , most are near Central Park,..The Guggenheim Metropolitan museums of art the Museum of Natural History Planetarium.all great for rainy days.Short cab or bus rides will take you to anything that might interest you.Would ask locals your age where they go to relax ,dine or shop.If you will have free time away from the group ( it s not on the tour) would head downtown to Chinatown, Little Italy, Greenwich Village.Parts are a little touristy but a little hole in the wall cafe is a good place to be on a cold night.Best regards
