Remember when I wrote
this letter? And
this one a few months later when I moved into my new apartment? Well, shortly after my Open Letter to New York, I decided that I needed to get out of my 11x7 hole with no closet and 3 roommates who always had a hundred people over, so I packed my bags and moved across the river to Hoboken, NJ.
I
love living in Hoboken. It takes me 15 minutes via Path train every morning to get into the city so it really is the best of both worlds. The average age in Hoboken is about 30 so it's a really young town and almost everyone works in the city. It's the birthplace of baseball, has spacious apartments, and a gorgeous running path that runs right alongside the Hudson. Read: this place speaks my language.
To show you a little bit of Hoboken, I took my camera on a 4-mile run the other day and snapped some photos along the way so you can see for yourself where I live. Here goes:
 |
| My tree-lined street in Hoboken! |
 |
| The Cake Boss lives here too! |
 |
| The Lackawanna train station is beautiful! |
 |
| Running along the Hudson River! |
 |
| Love this view! |
 |
| That building in the middle with the pointy top? That's where I go to school! |
 |
| After running along the river, I loop back into the center of town, past this park and back to my apartment! |

So that's Hoboken! What do you think?
I love it and I'm really sad to leave it in a few weeks!
But I'm on to other things (more on that later!)
Have a great day!
