Since our arrival to New York about 3 weeks ago, we have been relaxing,
taking in our beautiful surroundings and eating too much food (of course!).
As we came over with no apartment or job to go to, we have recently begun
the search for both! Who knew it would be so hard to get an apartment! I
thought our biggest problem would be finding somewhere, but as it turns out
the hardest part is getting past the crazy 'foreigners-leasing-apartments' rules.
Things are looking up though so fingers crossed I will have a cute little
apartment soon to share with you all. On the up side, having no permanent
dwelling has meant we have been hopping around New York and getting
a taste of each area - which I have enjoyed so much! We started off in a
beautiful waterfront Williamsburg apartment, with a view of the Manhattan
skyline from our bedroom window! Can't complain about that one! Then we
found ourselves in Midtown West, which was close to Times Square. After
that we headed to the Upper West Side, which I adored because it felt like
I was living next door to celebrities and the brownstone apartment lined
streets were absolutely stunning! We are now in the Midtown East/Murray
Hill area, right near Grand Central Station, which is also very beautiful.
Phew! Fingers crossed this week brings some apartment and job news!
These photos were taken across from where we were staying on the Upper
West Side - breathtaking, isn't it?! Sigh, what a beautiful city!

ReplyDeleteSo lucky that you have already had an opportunity to get a taste of the many different boroughs in NYC. I was there for 3 weeks in 2011 and wish I had a year there like you, since there is so much to do. Good luck on both counts! I'm hedging my bets that you'll get scouted ;)
ReplyDeleteLove reading all of your NY stories!
