The phrase I was commonly told during my stay was, “New York is what you make of it. Anything and everything you’re into is here.” They were all right. Everything I wanted to do, to see were just a Google search away. The food, museums, entertainment, shopping, and most importantly, the opportunities are all there. The question is, is it for me? Members of the Advertising Club of New York emphasized how environment is crucial and how people thrive in an environment that matches with them. All I can say is, I definitely thrive in big cities.

Reflecting on my time in New York with all the networking, going to agency visits, and squeezing in all the things I wanted to do on my checklist, I can’t believe I managed to do everything in just a week.
