Most New Yorkers are in a rush because time is money. They really hate it when tourists are blocking their paths just to stare up at the skyscrapers, consult a map, snap a picture, or take a selfie. But that feeling is liberating. To know you belong to one of the greatest cities of the world is a sentiment unmatched. And no matter the rush, the mud, the trash and the traffic, for people like us, it is always going to be New York Or Nowhere.
Every New Yorker has at some point of time been lost in New York. But they have found themselves in the process. And in these streets they have discovered what it truly means to live in NYC.
