New York, My Dear
a city like none other, traveling faster than the speed of light skyscrapers welcoming her inhabitants with outstretched arms, beckoning opportunity at every corner. her streets are paved with the footprints of strivers, dreamers, believers who flourish among the perpetual sounds of taxis honking, builders constructing and subway tracks screeching. her neighborhoods churn with […]
