I am falling in love with this city. Everything is taking my breath away and yet it feels so normal to be here, as if i’ve been here before. I am walking walking walking everywhere and snapping away as I go. My SX-70 camera is in heaven, and is proving to be the ultimate conversation starter (no surprise there – it even worked its magic in Marrakesh). I’m returning to the hotel by 8pm each evening, exhausted beyond belief, and excited to do it all again the next day. There’s so much i want to share from Squam and my experience of teaching there (so good!) but it will have to wait – i have a hot date with a city…

* Tomorrow night’s meet-up is still happening! If you’re in NYC and would like to say hi to me and my lovely travelling pal, Lisa Field-Elliot, come down to the Ace hotel between 7-9pm. We’ll be in the lobby bar. (FYI: We’ve noticed the music pumping there each night so if we change the venue to somewhere quieter nearby i’ll tweet the deets) x
