These next set of photographs were taken the last time I was in New York City. 

I arrived right before noon, so on the way to my interview I snapped a bunch of images of what it's like at lunchtime in The Big Apple; particularly during the spring and summer months, when everyone is outside celebrating and enjoying the sunshine and warmer weather.

So, let's have some lunch...


Fresh organic fruit shakes and smoothies


Right around noon, you begin to notice the streets getting more and more crowded with people taking their lunch breaks...





Lunch a la cart


I love how in both these next photographs, New Yorkers can eat lunch underneath scaffolding or along an on-the-street-cafe, and act as if it's perfectly normal. 

That's because in New York...that is normal. 



These next two photographs were taken along Union Square Park


And speaking of New York City, I will be taking five days off this week to look for an apartment. I've been doing a lot of preparation work over the past two weeks, setting up appointments to view various apartments.

Wish me luck!

I won't be online much this week, either posting or visiting your blogs, because I've got a lot to do to get ready for my move in September.

*doing the happy dance*

But I will be sure to keep you updated on my results.

I leave you with a video that totally exemplifies my love and attraction to New York. This video was created by filmmaker, Andrew Clancy, after his first year living in New York City. The emotion he so brilliantly captured is exactly how New York makes me feel. For as big and intimidating as it can appear, it is truly a city with such a warm heart, and a strong and supportive sense of community.

Please enjoy...
