A note from Metropolis.

The Empire State Building from Williamsburg.

The Empire State Building from Williamsburg.

I am not from this place, but in two months New York will have been home to me for two full years—this jagged, dirty, men-peeing-on-subway-steps, opinionated, cacophonous, skyscraper forest.

As I gear up for a new year and an exciting adventure, I can't help but feel an immense gratitude that I'm lucky enough to wake up to this view each morning, and to call it homebase. I have a hunch the skyline is going to start feeling a lot more like home in coming months, when I eagerly return to wander in its shadows. 

And as I do, I want start sharing—at first without any specific regularity—some of those experiences, as well as the ones lived elsewhere. In carving out this little digital space, I hope to fill it with words and photos. A little spot to be nerdy and reflective.
