i went to new york (for the second time) in may and i can't stop thinking about it. i live in london—born and raised—and i love it here, but there's just something about new york. i just know that, at one point in my life, i need to move there for a few months and see if i'll stay forever. loved this, it really radiated what it felt like to be in new york, even if i was there for only a week!

my father is from new york and i go all the time (i just got back from a three day trip). i’ve always had this pull towards nyc. it makes me forget about my anxiety of being perceived because everyone is always going and it just reminds me that everyone is on their own journeys. nyc is one of my favorite places on earth. thank you for capturing it’s essence with your words♡
