a true New York moment?

NYC052009 014I love being in New York city. If someone asked me at any instance of time, where would you like to be – the answer is clear. What New York represents to me is the how I see the world. It is the city that is diverse, global, multicultural, multiracial and beyond. Yeah! it is the melting pot of multiple diverse cultures…BUT it is not the existence of these cultures in the city BUT the experiences of these cultures in the city shapes – a true New York moment.

NYC052009 012Standing on time square is like a window to the world. Since, I went to school for my post graduate (MBA) in New York and worked there for a bit, I had an opportunity to experience the city from two different points of view.

As a student, I took subways, ate at inexpensive cafes and restaurants, worked under a professor and competed to get a job. It was very interesting. I had multiple interactions that shaped my experiences in the city.

a true New York moment: Studying in a Jesuit University, doing a project with a Russian, Hispanic and an American ex-marine officer, eating at a cafe run by an Italian caterer and taking a cab with a Punjabi cab driver.

As a professional, I got to meet some really accomplished people, eat at fancy restaurants and shop on Fifth Ave.

a true New York moment: meet with business people from London, eat at the finest Italian Renaissance restaurant, get attention from a Greek shop sales person on fifth ave and choose from operas, ballets and plays for evening entertainment.

Whatever the case, New York city allows for all kinds of people to interact with each other and share their cultures with each other.
