New York would be my garden, the sights and sounds the flowers that would perpetually flower. Each individually a memorable version on a colourful theme.

The Chrysler building is reminiscent of a beautiful sleek chrome clad rocket upended and ready to soar into the ether, the Rockerfeller Building sheer sided gleaming glass and unbelievably tall. Times Square is total mayhem with its own neon lit police station and to step into Grand Central station is like stepping into breathtakingly gorgeous cathedral for the masses. New York at night is an eternal Christmas, every building lit like the brightest, longest imaginable fairy light. It is a health conscious, soup obsessed city upholding a white/non-white class crevasse, but it felt like home. London stretched and pulled beyond the bounds of imagination.
