I'm extremely proud that the community has grown to 10K. But I have to admit I owe a great deal of that success to a couple of YouTube courses I took early on.
The first course I took was around the time I published my fifth video. This was "The YouTube Creator Academy" by Graham Stephan. I...

Whoever thought you would see live peacocks that roam freely in New York City? At St. John’s Cathedral in Morningside Heights they do. The grounds at St. John’s by itself is already a great place to relax and find some peace and quiet. But the resident peacocks make it even more of a treat to...

Happy weekend! This week's video was on how to ride the NYC Ferry. Since it was a straightforward how-to video, there wasn't enough interesting graphics that would merit being a wallpaper. So here is a free wallpaper from a previous video that talks about the ferry to the Statue of Liberty. ...

Welcome to the first creator blog I've ever written!🎉
I plan to make one of these each week where I'll write about what happens behind the scenes of Urban Caffeine or perhaps any thoughts I have regarding my process.
But why start a creator blog in the first place? Since you are in...

Did you know almost all NYC Museums offer free admission?
Here is the most complete list (that I can find) of all the New York museums that offer some sort of free admission. Some of them are always free, others only offer select hours, and a few you'll have to be a NY resident. Whatever th...

Instead of visiting an observatory, I always tell people to go to Gantry State Park in Long Island City. Daytime or nighttime, it has a breathtaking view of the city. And pictures don't do it justice. Best part... it's free and not as crowded as an observatory.
It's accessible by sever...

Lately this place is hands down the best place to get happy hour oysters. This is coming from someone who is a finicky eater and never eats seafood because I grew up next to a beach and nothing ever seems fresh enough.
This place is called Beast New Door located in Astoria, Queens. It's one...

Hi Everyone. I'm re-evaluating my production schedule. My workflow hasn't been the best so I'm trying to get fully organized. Which sadly means the next video might take a bit. I don't know for sure. But once I have a solid workflow, production should be consistent.

I found this spot in Hell's Kitchen this weekend — Casa Del Toro. On Saturdays starting at 7:30, there is a live aerialist performing while you dine on tacos and mezcal cocktails. Here's a recording of the full set.

The weekend is finally here! And the weather is beautiful. I took my scooter by the water yesterday (Friday) and got this footage. Hope you have a great weekend ahead!
