“Your first sight of New York is like losing your virginity. Although you've heard so much about it and seen it in countless movies- both Vaseline lenses and graphically depicted-you don't get it until you've finally had the experience.”
Kate Sekules 'City Pack New York'
I had been to New York before in the late 1990's but for Nick it was his first time. We were presented with the most amazing opportunity of living in an apartment in New York for the month of July, thanks to my gorgeous friend Milla and her extremely generous sister Sophie.
One of the first things we did was head to the roof terrace to check out the views.
We covered a lot of miles on foot during our first week exploring the local neighbourhood and a little future afield.
The Flatiron building, one of my favourites!
After a few days we felt like we were really getting New York and were looking forward to experiencing every bit of it over the next month.
