At nineteen I moved from a Finnish town of 2,000 people to New York City to study. In many ways I still feel more at home in New York than I ever did in Finland: the energy, the diversity of ethnicities and lifestyles, the unexpected make every day feel like traveling. That’s why I stayed for more than twenty years. While NYC is special, so is every other city: they all have a specific spirit and identity, and they all provide a set for tales to take place.
