I recently lived in New York for three months. I missed many things about Los Angeles — mostly its sense of space. I missed the sky, the landscape and the colorful sunsets. I missed the freeways, the freedom and independence that one has in one’s car. I like that we have artificial views from non-artificial places and I like that there is an ambiguous border to Los Angeles. It just keeps going. In short, I missed all the things that New Yorkers typically loathe about Los Angeles. I think I love L.A.
