bright lights. big city.













the smell of the city.

each block brings a new surprise.
a fond memory of a cafe on the corner that remains unchanged or the sight of a familiar face, which i remember from a year ago in the city that keeps on changing.

walked 50 blocks today. 5 hours. say hello to day one of blisters.
i still possess scars from 2 months in the city at a internship where i wore heels on a daily basis. my feet are thanking me for flats on this trip.

had my first century 21 experience + cuddled up in the robes of our old world hotel + got photographed by 2 guys from a french magazine while eating lunch in union square + went to topshop (yay. i can tell already i will be back. and it's dangerous) + saw the face of my gf who has never seen times square + pretty much just walked and walked and walked... it truly is another world.

more to come super soon.
