The concrete jungle, the Big Apple, the city that never sleeps. Whatever you call it, New York City is one of the most iconic and challenging cities in the world. Growing up watching American cinema, New York City was one of the places I dreamed of visiting. Now that I've been grateful to have visited New York City many times, there's no doubt that once you make it in New York, you can make it anywhere in your life. Each neighborhood is permeated by its own unique history, nightlife, and character in a way that's unmatched by any other city I've visited.
