i spent 5 months in New York last year
the longest I've ever lived outside Portugal
here's some observations about my time there:
1. new york doesn't care about your backstory. it cares if you're useful, if you're good, if you can keep up
2. new workers talk shit about their city all the time. the rent. the subway. the winters. but no one ever leaves.
3. i feel like the best version of myself in nyc. more focused. more alive. more willing to bet on myself.
