Do I belong to New York? I don't know, but I've been trying to leave this beautiful city two time and I've seen myself coming back, not by necessity, or lack of opportunities,There is something here that attracts you to come back and you can't fight it. is what it does.

I used to go to my homeland for months, without realizing every time I traveled I was shortening the days that i stayed, using the phrases like "I want to come home, I want to go back to NYC. " I guess I realized there is no place like it.

On one of my trips to Miami I had a conversation with a young stranger, he asked "How is New York City?" once I finished answering him, he said "You know you love a place when your eyes shine when you talk about it, like yours."what can i say I do love this city. Anyhow, can you consider me a New Yorker? I don't know, that's why I decided to make an album of my favorite places in New York City. they are not only beautiful, they are New York Essentials
