Big Rotten Apple
I don't love NY. To me it is:
- An ugly Concrete Jungle
- Too Crowded
- Freezing
- Flat and boring (all the streets look about the same after a awhile)
- NYC Subways strike and the taxis take you to the cleaners ($40 to go 10 blocks.)
Its dangerous, but I'll make a vow here: I'm never coming back to NY for pleasure, and if I have to come on business, I'm not staying a min longer than necessary.
I don't love NY, in fact, I hate NY.
One thing I learned is that leading a group of people on vacation (or anywhere) is hard. Some of the difficulties are:
- Coordinating individual and conflicting preferences
- Being conscious of the group mood
Next time I'm in a group (and not the leader), I'll make sure to give the leader lots of encouragement and gratitude.
