It took us 13 hours (and 13 years) to move to New York City. Apartment hunting hell and job hunting during recession was part of the deal of moving to the greatest city in the world. The challenges are worth every amazing experience we’ve had here. There’s always something to do. There’s never enough time. Roaming around the streets here is pure joy. This is our personal NYC story.

The Streets of Lower East Side
We ran into the Man in Black on the streets of the Lower East Side. He wasn't crooning with cowboys. He was hanging out with the the wasted, the scum, the unwanted.
We couldn't believe someone tossed him to the curb. As we pondered how we'd carry him back home, a dude stopped next to us and said, "Whoa. if you don't take him, I will." Sorry dude, we're taking Johnny back home with us . . . straight into our bedroom.
