NYC

Hello dolls!

I have now spent 2 weeks in NY (and NYC), and wanted to give my opinion on how I see and feel the city so far:

First, the reason why I am here is that I am currently an intern in a law firm in the Empire State Building, and YES I am still alive, although there was a shooting a week ago right at the time I would normally have gone to work (and entered the building).

But Friday is my day off, so lucky me!

I feel, that NYC is such a busy city! Everyone's roaming around, business people are RUNNING (that's what they call "walking") through the streets, and I catch myself murmuring "'scuse me, 'scuse me" and pushing myself through the masses, or at least try not to get stomped down by the running business people.

It's a beautiful city, but even as an intern you get a good feeling of what it must be like to work in a city like NYC. The attorney I am working with is working 60 to 70 hours a week!

I guess it really is something else when you're on vacation in NYC, for you have a lot more time and energy to capture the beauty of the city :)

Shopping here is of course also awesome and not as expensive as in Europe (also because the $ is not as high as the Euro).
I got a couple of new things, and am really happy about it.

However, I try not to write a novel here, but I'll just try to post my "insider tipps" I try to figure out while I'm staying here so you could be more prepared when you should come here some time soon ;)

Have a good night.

x J.
