A Sunday Stroll Through Brooklyn & Visit to Etsy

Sunday, July 22, 2012 by Jessika Hepburn

oh my handmade, brooklyn adventures

Last week I wrote about how in June I got to visit Etsy HQ in Brooklyn to get certified as an Etsy Educator. It was a whirlwind 72 hour trip of non-stop excitement, new experiences, + meeting online friends for real hugs and adventures. Brooklyn felt like coming home to somewhere I have always known, my Nana was a Jewish Brooklynite who gave me a copy of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn when I was 9. Brooklyn is one of the friendliest places I have ever been (coming from a Canadian that is saying something!) and I loved people-watching and window shopping in this vibrant city. Come along for a sunny stroll through Brooklyn streets, a paw through the Brooklyn Flea, lunch with friends, and a visit behind the scenes at Etsy!

I can’t wait to visit Brooklyn again-it is definitely a place where you can spend years exploring and still never see everything. I hope you had fun sightseeing and playing tourist with me, Happy Sunday!
