Welcome to our Instagramers Blog Eliska, your work on New York city is both interesting and creative! We are happy to show it off here on Instagramers.com.

My name is Eliska I am 21 year old animation student from Prague. Even if I live halfway across the world, I constantly dream of New York city. My project AnimateNY on Instagram is based on my love for NYC. I spend my time adding crazy illustrations to photos taken by amazing NYC instagramers.

As many people before me I fell in love with NYC after spending my first summer there. Ever since that first visit, I try to go as much as I can, my dream is to one day move over to the Big Apple!
