Hi everyone,

jetlag rears its ugly head again! It has been 3 weeks now and Im still waking up so early! God bless wireless internet so I can lie in bed and reply! In answer to some of the questions no it wasn't romance or a career opportunity that made me move (the job I have here now is fairly rubbish) but I just really needed a change. I'm living with a friend just outside the city but it has fairly good commuting to get into the centre and once I have sorted a car I can go explore the state a bit more and get out and about.

Morning everyone!

Jill

Welcome from Eastern Washington State. Sorry to hear you're homesick. NY is a great place with a lot of wonderful folks to get to know.

Welcome Jilly! So sorry to hear of your homesickness, I'm sure it's challenging to move to a new country-- especially amid all of those crazy New Yorkers
