For the summer of 2015 Matt got an incredible opportunity to intern in New York City and after tons and tons of thought (aka none) I decided to tag along for the summer. The original plan was for me to get a summer job in the city to make a little extra money (thankfully he was getting paid even as an intern) but after we talked about it a bit we decided it would be best if I went back to focusing completely on dance instead of balancing that and a job like I have been doing for the last 3+ years. Matt gave me an incredible opportunity to get back in the studio and completely focus on rehabbing my knee. It is just one of the many reasons I love him so incredibly much.
Aside from dancing in Ney York every single day I got to do some cool things in the city. I compiled this list as an easy way to look back at my amazing summer and also as inspiration for anyone who chooses to read here and may be planning a New York trip. NYC is an amazing city and even being there for almost 3 months I didn't even scratch the surface of places to go and things to see. Also in no way do I think I am a true "New Yorker" after being there for such a short time period these were just my experiences I had and my thoughts on what I got to do.
