    My first US visit

    Hey guys... I'm planning to head over to San Fran and New York in late November this year! Never been there before.

    Any suggestions on hotels to stay and things to do in San Fran? Likewise for NYC.

      go to the piers. x2 on ruby sky (see who's playing). also, give a visit to china town?

      also, make sure you don't accidentally pack any of y'alls spiders in your suitcase. we don't need that stuff here.

        Thanks man! What's some cool places in Southern Cali? The "touristy" thing to do is LA and Hollywood but not sure about that. Any suggestions? Flights land in LAX so while the majority of my trip is based around NYC it makes sense to explore a bit of the west coast.

              I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

                This airbnb site is amazing! Some unbelievable places to stay at great prices! How safe is it to use and any suggestions on "safe" areas to stay?

                  +1 for airbnb, LA is full of stuff to do, I wouldn't know where to start tbh, but google your ideas and interests I'm sure you'll find some cool stuff. Roaming the hills of Malibu would be fun. I can get you a list of underground ish type house clubs if you want.

                  I'll send you a PM about San Fran.

                  It was fun while it lasted...

                    haight st in san fran is cool to checkout for a day. really good seafood at the crab house on the wharf. we rented a car and drove over the golden gate bridge up into the hills which was pretty cool. as far as new york, bleeker st. was also cool to check out. lots of street markets.
                    Don't let anyone drive you crazy when you know it's in walking distance.

                          I used it only twice, but I heard itīs very safe. You can read opinions/comments in every place posted there. I had no problem at all, it was fine and cheaper than any hotel.

                            Couple things worth mentioning for SF. Rent a bike down by the wharf, and travel across the Golden Gate Bridge, over to Sausalito. Small little town worth checking out. You can take a ferry ride back across into SF, which is pretty nice as well. Keep in mind, temperature changes can vary drastically either side of the bridge. So if it's not so warm on the SF side, it can be the difference of 20F on the Sausalito side. This place here is worth mentioning. http://ilikeikesplace.com/ . Often times, i think of returning just for this place, and its sandwich's. I pulled down the menage a trois. Simply amazing. And our breakfast stop was Sears http://www.searsfinefood.com/ Another great choice for some good food.

                              So white-middle class Americans have been told by their Television sets to be fearful of:

                              1. Mexicans/Latinos from the South bringing drugs and killings n' shit.
                              2. African Americans cause mos def they are raging a race war and want to occupy America like how the plebs occupied Wall St.
                              3. Iranians/Afghans/Any one of middle eastern origin to be quite frank, cause you know Islam...
                              4. North Koreans/Chinese cause you know everything...

                              Am I close here?
