New York City doesn’t have any beautiful beaches with aquamarine waters so pristine you can see the ocean floor. No majestic mountains covered in snow, or lush greenery sprawling with life. You don’t rest in New York, and the only time you ever sleep is when you dream. New York never struck me as a “vacation” spot. Usually, you end up needing a vacation from a vacation there. But if there’s one thing New York is, it’s a second chance.
