#22: Go to New York

An advantage to Montreal that I have completely failed to milk is its proximity to a few really cool American cities. This year, I decided to put my reading week to good use and tackle the coolest of them all, New York City.

Pulling into New York City, it was love at first sight. We all know it is only a matter of time before I move to NYC, but after visiting, I can confirm that. It has the old charm which I so adore in Montreal via old buildings and giant trees, but what hit me most about New York City was the feeling of purpose that takes you over, just by walking its streets. My mind felt clearer, if that makes any sense.

Anyways I completely loved it and that is largely due to my amazing travel buddy Sarah, who was just hilarious (and remarkably useful for directions). Thank you for the time of my life!

Here is a little picture of me on the Brooklyn Bridge (one of two pictures of myself I currently have, since Sarah took most of the pictures of me on her camera).
