I appreciate you disclosing your rent. It does help to gauge how plausible it is to move to NYC, which is a goal of mine in the future! Perhaps I'll see you there soon!
Ah ok phew! I'm glad it helped! I was apprehensive about sharing but I knew that it if I was a viewer, I would probably want to know! I feel like it's difficult to find decent spots under $900 but you never know! I hope to see you here one day :)
This helps so much!!!!
I just moved cross country to Manhattan and honestly she made it seem so much easier and cheaper then it truly is. It is SO hard. Her rent is SO SO cheap and not common
Same but I'm Irish, I am planning going to NYU so I'm very scared to live a 7h flight from my parents and family, having no friends being so far away from my culture but I've still got a few years so I'm planning like hell
Did you do it yet?
im sorry mom but moving to ny has been my dream for such a long time. I have everything planned, and im here to tell you it all :)
at age 16, ill get a job at a fast food restaurant, and me and my bsf will save up enough so that right when we graduate we hop in the car and take the 2 hour drive there.
some people will say my dreams will be crushed but i will continue to work hard to achieve this, no matter whatever i go through, I WILL ACCOMPLISH THIS.
edit: hey guys!! its been 6 months so heres an update:
im no longer moving with my best friends since they thought it was some joke, so im going by myself instead!
You got this :)
girly u and I have the same dream plan, I love that
U GOT THIS!!!
Alissa Fisher THANK YOU!!
YES YOU WILL
subscribing so elena can afford to live in NYC
lazy--eye ahaha bless you sweet angel

WHOA MY TWO FAVES IN ONE COMMENT SECTION??
ASHLEY IS MY RELIGION
ashley are yo moving to new york sis? be my roommate lol
I just came here after your video lol 🥰
Try attending creative mornings in NYC! It's a free guest lecture series that is geared towards the creative community. I'm a graphic designer who regularly goes to the one here in San Diego and have made so many great friends and business connections through attending. It's a great resource if you want to surround yourself with more people in the creative industry.
Alejandra Giraldo thanks for this, i dont live in nyc but there is creative mornings in SF too.
I’m interested in this, can u pls explain more detailed? How can I join ? 🤎
you have the prettiest eyes
So True
She reminds me of Alexandra daddario
I moved to Berlin from the U.K on my own, it's the best and craziest thing I've ever done! Paris is next!!
SAME! Paris is next for me too ;)
Been in Paris for two years. Hardest thing I've ever done but so so worth it! Visit and trail it before you do it and LEARN French before you come!
Hope you like my home city :)
I’ve been to Paris only for a holiday tho
Orla Traynor true no one speaks English it’s gonna be hard
You..Are..REAL!! I hate all the NY Vloggers when they show us places without a budget, like whats the point? & as you said its not nosey, its because its helpful. SN: I was moving to LA 3 months ago, then went to NY last month and was like..hold up! LA can wait a year lol. moving to NY
So now in LA or NY
Girl, how do you have the courage to just jump on a plane and hope for the best? I love that. I need to take more risks.
Been watching too much gossip girl. On a mission to find my chuck bass
omg yes lol
Same lmao
he was really arrogant in real life lol but i got a pic with him
That's like one of the reasons I want to go
it makes me smile too see other people living my dreammm, fingers crossed i'll get to move here someday too🙈🙈
I was born there :))
@@onthevergeofrunningawaygoo6452 i finessed it😌
good luck
I spontaneously moved to NYC too from LA! I love the energy and having real seasons. 💖
Ah no way! I feel exactly the same! That's the main reason why I came :)
U live alone!? Tell me how is it life their!!? And livin' alone!!
I'm from Chicago although I admit the 4 seasons ARE nice (when we get them, winters here lasts a really really long time) Id love to trade it for sunny Cal where I can go anywhere and there's beautiful mountains and the ocean...no having to warm up your car before going out or scraping the ice of your car😤
I see you
I moved to NYC from Alabama without ever visiting NYC and at first it was a huge culture shock for me but once I got comfortable with the city I fell completely in love with it! So happy you feel that you’re meant to be there right now. That’s a really great feeling to have!
Also- girl. 1300 in Williamsburg?? You can be in Manhattan for that.
Yes yes! So true
Omg I’m moving to nyc from Alabama soon
Sara Giles I’m from North Alabama and hope to be able to afford to move to NYC within a year or so. I spent a week there in last year and it just felt like it’s where I’m supposed to be. It’s such a magical place and a refreshing change. I’m glad to hear that I’m not the only person from Alabama with NYC dreams, Lol. (:
Bleh I’m also trying to move from Alabama to NYC too... do you need a roommate?
Tatiana Ringsby lives in New York, she's a RUclipsr! Y'all should collab one day! And it's so cool how you are an independent woman. I mean I couldn't imagine moving across the country by myself.
yes yes she seems like the sweetest! i am definitely going to try to reach out to her :)
as an east coast girl in LA right now, this gave me all of the feels
I can't even tell you how many times I've come back to watch this video. Whenever I lose motivation to keep saving, this helps a lot! love you!
Wow lol first time someone has actually said how much their rent is what a miracle AND says HOW they can afford the rent! Sheesh! A godsend!
Every time I see someone new living out my dream I believe in myself a little bit more.
Same 😅 I have thought about moving to nyc after college ...
@@ashlynnmarler1964 Go for it sis

I ❤️you!!!! I've been keeping up with your Instagram!!! And I'm so glad your happy I hope it brings you great things!!!
your editing is amazing! one of my favourite people to watch
Thank you so much for a candid video. This was very useful for anyone who wants to move to NYC, or anywhere new for that matter. It's always been my dream to live in NYC, and I am hoping to move their a couple years after I graduate college.
I know I am late....Welcome to Brooklyn, New York.....we are glad to have you !!!!!
Yay!!!! I’m so happy you uploaded oh my goodness ily❤️❤️❤️
*HITOMI?!* I actually just realized that it’s a dream of mine to live in NYC just this year, and literally I was wanting to move there when I was in my twenties after finishing school😂 I loved this sooo much! It makes me pumped and inspired for the future! 💕
The queen has uploaded !!
Your video was EXTREMELY helpful. I am learning how to navigate a much bigger city than where I am from and these tips were exactly what I needed to hear. Meeting new people has been difficult but your suggestions are just what I needed to know. Definitely inspired by how brave you have been to move so far away from home and put yourself out there meeting new people. Thank you for this video. :)
WOO I am so so glad this was helpful to you!!
I'm so incredibly happy for you!!
This was such an informative video (even though I'll probably never move to New York, but maybe to another big city somewhere around the world!)
I just discovered your channel today researching for my first solo backpacking trip and I also want to move to NYC after graduating! Good Luck!
Im watching during quarantine, but OMG NYC is SO BEAUTIFUL💞
Yasssss! The queen had uploaded ❤️💫👑
I’m so happy I found your channel ! Your amazing !
SO EXCITED FOR YOU!!!
You are such a bold soul! Idk if I’d ever have the courage to take that big step by myself!!! Props to you girl 😘😘. How much do u make on RUclips? I didn’t know one could support oneself on just RUclips, I hope everything works out!
wherever you move, I will be following your vlogs.. so much love for you pretty eyes !!
I'm just so excited as soon as the notification pop up 💖💖
Wow how exciting!!! :) You're so pretty! wishing you the best time in NYC! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures
LOVE THIS! I am currently in the process of moving to new york as well!!!
Apartment looks sooo good! Stay adventurous, I love it, it inspires me. Enjoy the first NYC winter 😬
I'm so proud of you🧡you look so happy
She’s so likable!! Loved it, gave me the motivation to move to NY right now lol
Yess, this video is so helpful. Even tho I just moved to nyc haha! It was so hard to find what a normal rent was before I moved. Have fun in the city!!
Wow you are such an inspiration!! You are so brave!! I think now with 20 years old I'm not prepare to live alone in other country/city and for this reason I think you are amazing!🙆🙆
Kisses from Spain to New York 😘😘
Thank you for being transparent with your rent! I love Williamsburg and it is a dream of mine to live there. You sharing your rent is really helpful for me to get a better idea of what I could get for my money there!
You are so so so inspiring El❤️!!
Great video! I also moved to NYC alone to work for a fashion ad agency. What a wild ride that was....!! Happy New Year to all x
I’m so happy for you!
Meeting up with friends of friends by yourself is so brave! I need to work on my social skills- feeling inspired now
Omg wow what a change from the beach bungalow to the ny place
I've been waiting for this!! Ugh, finally!
just found you on youtube! your personality is so kind and radiant!
Hitomi is a goddess, so glad you guys met and collabed
I moved from NJ to London for about three years and I totally get what youre saying about transport. Simple things like a trip to IKEA were so exhausting just because of the time/effort it took to get home and back
Lots of great tips in this video! THANKS A BUNCH!!! Also, I wanted to add that I've heard that an ideal budget for how much you can afford to pay for rent is to find a place that costs less than 30% of your monthly income.
This was super helpful as my goal is to move here when I grad in the spring! Hope you make more like it 💙
So proud of you
Ive been thinking about moving to NYC, but it sooo scary to think about it but you really out here inspiring me to do it! Subscribeddddd
