paint it white

Let’s write this one in English, just to be sure i spent my last six months with at least some american people.

The last day, the day its finally starts snowing in New York. I feel like this is a nice way to end up my journey here, a blank page to start again something new in Paris. It’s been an amazing 6 months, 2 appartments, a thousand bars, a few clubs thanks to Alison, a lost bet, but a great job experience. This was also the time when I realised it’s all about taking the right time for the things and people that matters. Life was easy and peaceful, let’s try to keep that from now on.

I don’t know how to sum all of that up, i haven’t realized i’m leaving yet and i’m waiting to take a cab to JFK. The only thing I am sure about is that New York is an amazing city, because it is full of possibilities, there is a place for everyone, and you can choose who you want to be. A friend of mine told me a few weeks before my departure that i would find art in New York, and thanks to Athena and a couple of friends, i really did.

There’s a lot of people i didn’t have a chance to say goodbye, but this is just a new page, a new chapter, not the end of the book, and there will be new adventures.

So,
