Ahh, New York. O Nueva York. Como lo quieres.
Once you begin to travel in life, you inevitably want more and more of it. And as your travel history grows, you begin dreaming of all the new places you want to visit. Travel becomes less whimsical and more targeted. And as you begin to target different locations, the big ones stick out immediately. Man, I'd really like to go there! And there! Paris, London, Hollywood, the Caribbean, Las Vegas, Rio de Janeiro, the pyramids, Rome, and of course, New York City. Then, as time passes, you begin to wonder if you'll ever get to visit said locations, or if you will forever be left subject to experiencing them vicariously through the Travel Channel and National Geographic Magazine.
This was the case for me with New York City. I've wanted to visit for some time now, yet somehow didn't see it ever happening. But things happen when least expected, and when I was offered the chance to visit for a week in exchange for helping a good friend move cross-country in a U-Haul from Houston to New York, I jumped at the chance to cross NYC off my list. Much thanks again, Jake.
