If you’re in Orlando, skip Disney World, go to Gatorland. Redefined what I thought a theme park could be and is the truest Florida experience. A mix between nature preserve and a redneck wonderland, you can immediately buy Budwiser in an aluminum bottle then see literally hundreds of gators living their best lives. You can also pay to feed the gators. Or watch a man with a pony tail jump on one’s back and hold their jaws closed with one hand while explaining their defense mechanisms. It cost $35 and everything here is real af.

I love alligators. There, I said it. These flat fucks have been around for 80 million years and they aren’t going away anytime soon. What more could you want in an animal? They’re cute. They’re violent. They have soft bellies. They make the South a little bit better. All around an S tier animal that deserves more recognition.

Located 30 miles west of Miami off the Tamiami Trail (U.S. Highway 41), Shark Valley is in the very heart of the Everglades freshwater marsh. You may walk, bike, or take a narrated tram ride along a 15-mile loop road into Shark River Slough. Along the loop road you will have the opportunity to view wildlife close up. Halfway around the loop is a 70-foot high observation tower providing a panoramic view of the sawgrass marsh. Highly recommended visit if you're a nature nerd.

Thanks y’all for the fire tips - I had a blast. Just put everyone’s rec’s into a google maps collection so you can find them at the link📍
My addition is the Empire Garden Restaurant in Chinatown. Built into an old vaudeville theater, the food is solid but the atmosphere is absurd and a must see.

You trusted someone with your money or your heart or both, and then that person surprises you by fucking you over. fuck!
This sucks a lot and might mess you up pretty bad and make you lose faith in people, but on the other side there is the potential for new found strength as you now have *experience*.
Trusting people is such an essential thing, so after getting scammed when you eventually find ways to trust people again, you’ll do it with a better sense of who to give it to and how much to give and when. That’s a powerful thing, and not easy to understand until you’ve been burned.
Keep trusting, keep getting burned, but hopefully a little less so each time.

🏠 decent living situation — awful roommates, deadbeat landlords, or psycho neighbors will make you super miserable so try to get this one locked down!
đŸ«‚ homies — making new friends can take a long time, but if you commit to putting yourself out there over and over you’ll connect with some truly inspiring and amazing people đŸ€‘ income (even a little) — yes you can get by on dumplings, no Ubers, no bars, etc. but being broke here feels particularly like a prison because most things are stupid expensive. Be on your grind and then blissfully spend it all away
If you end up getting all 3 of these you’re probably gonna be hopelessly addicted to being here just like me. Welcome to NYC :)
