<p>I don't know sybbie, I spent three years in NYC after college and while I am very glad I did and had a great experience, I did not want to stay. For me it was sensory overload; I need more personal space. Now Paris... that's a city I could stay in forever.</p>
<p>mmm... Paris... yes! And San Francisco. (alas, so expensive!)</p>
<p>Yes to Paris and I love to visit NY but none of us enjoyed living there. Life's too short to deal with the uptight and frenzied every minute of every day! Most of my friends who worked in NYC for the experience right out of school left after about 5 years.</p>
<p>One of the national magazines, "Time" or "Newsweek" has an article on this situation.</p>
