All of your advice is great! I moved from Seattle to New York 10 years ago. and I actually found that lining up appointments to view several apartments that I was interested in, within a week, and then actually booking a trip for that week to go to New York to view the apartments, I found to be more valuable than getting an agent! Because in New York you have to make rental decisions quickly anyways! That's just my personal experience.

Thank you for your channel! I lived in NYC most of my life, but moved to LA for a freelance job and ended up staying for 12 years. Never stopped dreaming of moving back. Finally made it happen 2 years ago. But it was a slog. So much of your situation rings true for me. SO glad I stuck it out and couldn't be happier. Did you see the documentary about Fran Lebowitz? In it she was counseling her niece who wanted to move here...when she could "afford it." "Stop right there," said Fran.."Nobody can 'afford' to live in NY. That's never why people want to live here." There are many other great reasons

Bittersweet moments rip at my heart strings. Transitions in life are more challenging to me now at age 67 than they were two (or five) decades ago. Time is the tyrant and it looms over me like a black cloud. I miss feeling carefree and lighthearted. Worry and caution have replaced those feelings. We prepare in less than a month to leave our Midwest home of 35 years and move south to a brand new home in a place where we know no one. I get tired of feeling terrified and pray the feeling of excitement will emerge once I’m there. You’re a wise woman Geraldine and if you have any words of advise you think might benefit me, I’d be grateful to hear them. Never having had children gave me a false sense of extended youthfulness and I think my mind and heart are now in a state of emergency trying to live in reality!

Been in your shoes-it’s a lot but you’ll be okay and will she.

I'm currently going through this with my daughter! I'm so excited and scared for her!

Where is that store located with the artwork?

I love the music so much in this one! Really great video!

It’s not Manhattan, but I’ll keep my 750 sq ft Loft with private balcony and free parking space directly in front of my door in Tulsa for under $650/mo for now… 😅 great video, hope you find the one that makes you happy. ‘

“…and not get pregnant.” Indeed best to avoid that at this point! Love your humor!

We encouraged our kids to live in dorms the first year. They both loved it, as it gave them a chance to acclimate to their new school.

The stark reality of things. Ugh! Dorm at least the first year. It’s not like it’s a forever thing.

I say dorms! 💯

I want to thank you for your videos. I lived in NYC in my 20s and 30s with my hubby. Loved it and I left when he got sick so I could stop working and take care of him, NYC was too expensive without a job. Anyway, now that I am your age I have been thinking of returning but I see little reminders in your videos that remind me that maybe NYC is for the young, long walks, subways and without a partner it can be lonely, so many things to do but nobody to do it with…anyhow it is just my feeling…if tomorrow I won the lottery I would buy a brownstone in the west village and get a car with a driver …so maybe is the $ or lack of that makes it seem not ok for this age…😢😮you enjoy that beautiful city and I know Hoboken, it is nice too…enjoy 😢😮

I have lived in nyc and this part of nj…there is no place like nyc ..if you can afford it…stay in nyc

got any good New York apt stories?

Did you perhaps mean 'mocha', or am i an old fuddy-duddy for missing another change in language?

My condolences on the loss of your sweet family member. Wow, Laguna Beach really is as beautiful as everyone claims!

I’m now on my own search for the best matcha ice cream. Looks delicious! 😊

I’m definitely going to check out Somisomi based on your review! I need that adorable fish shaped cone. lol 🐠.

I wanna go back!! love your film style ;)

There are so many places like this in Chiang Mai. Coffee shop capital of Thailand. Insane deserts too. You can follow the migration of the fish waffles back to is origins.

Has anyone had a better Matcha softserve ever?

Thrilled to be along for the ride! Saved this for the great tips, too! Can you tell me what kind of microphone you are using? I need to get one for my own new channel :)

Wow, super happy I found you tonight! I am your age & do photography as a hobby since I was a teen. I also started a youtube channel last year (Wyrd Woven) as a shamanic artist but might just start making whatever I feel like there as I have many other interests. Whatever camera and lens you are using here looks absolutely gorgeous!!! I am in the midst of huge changes also, will be watching your content with great interest and wishing you all the luck!

Love you guys! Wish I was this artistic. Such a beautiful, beautiful video......talk to you soon! 🥀🌻🥰🥰

R.I.P. sweet little bunny.

just buy a cheap car a new fiat is like 10k

i am 62 now,. have lymphoma and for some reason my curly hair changed a lot, and i was still coloring it medium brown. come lockdown, i got my husband to shave my head - because why not? he shaves it every month with a six for hair clippers and i just love it. i've learned to tame it with gel, and fortunately i have a good shaped head, high cheekbones and olive skin. it's fun and different. you suit it and i absolutely understand what you mean by looking younger with grey hair - completely agree!! subscribed🥰 also.... that music !

Great conclusion!

Interesting you would eat the cheese separate from the meatballs.

Such great insight and mindfulness! And I always try to remind myself that my cringey moments are growth opportunities but admittedly it doesn’t always help. lol 🤪

CO-LIVING great for travelers

I love the woman at the first bagel shop when you told her it was your first time there. She said you made it here at just the right time. Awwww ❤

Think I missed a noteworthy bagel shop? lmk - it might end up in a 2025 review!

My husband won’t even eat a bagel from our local bakery not unless it’s from New York. It’s annoying, but I totally understand.

I love this video. But, come on. You know the proper name for the "cream cheeses" is "shmears"!

I like Black Seed Bagels. I have tried Essa bagels from your list. I would love to see a young you vlog. I want to see pics and know your experience as a true New Yorker.

My favorite?... Bagel Express on 25TH and 3rd!! Avocado cilantro cream cheese is my absolute favorite!!! I will def try Grabsteins and ess a bagel next! Russ and daughters will not get my money!! I wish you would have said what they all cost.

Geraldine, please keep posting videos. We all benefit from everyone on RUclips NOT being 20 years old. I love your take on things.

How awesome to see 2 of my fave RUclipsrs (Chelsea and Geraldine!) find each other! This huge world is so delightfully small. ❤

❤❤ you and nyc
