lankan in ny

funny place this. in the most absurd way, its almost like coming home. been here almost a week, and from the most amazing things like having a drink above times square looking down at the peoples, to buying a gyros for lunch during a break, all make this place quite astounding.

from the akward glances of ?racism on the flight from the stewardess (my paranoia?), to being asked to take off my shoes, belt, and pants for yet another “random check sir” at london heathrow (my patience), it was all getting slightly irritating. but from the moment u enter the city, it almost was like playing a really familiar video game.

in conclusion, having lived on 3 continents and visited a wide range of cities.. one has to say, that ny is the city that all other cities seem to be trying to emulate.

budapest was majestic, and colombo will always be home.. but ny.. well.. its just ny.

i was encouraged by recent comments for me to start blogging again.. so when time permits.. will reveal all the juice that this city can grind out.

stay tuned.. and remind me from time to time!
