While it’s one of my biggest delights in life to explore new places, there’s something beautiful about returning to old, familiar places again and again.
••
There are a few places in the world, some of which I have lived in - New York, Athens, London - that I love to experience repeatedly, exploring less prominent corners of them every time. And every time, I discover another perspective of the city, another layer, another story.
••
It’s the difference between the thrill of a fling, the excitement of a new acquaintance bonded with over a couple of intense days of traveling, versus the joy of discovering the complexities, depth and surprises a partner or best friend may hold over years and years of knowing them.
••
Every time I see another side of a city I know and love, I fall in love a little more, I feel a little more at ease there, it feels more and more like MY city.

Just some Monday thoughts. To see some cool and under visited parts of Manhattan, check out my stories. What city do you like to visit again and again?
