NY Intern Life

[Blair LeJeune]

Im moving to Brooklyn in January to start an 8 month internship at a lanscape architecture office. Being from Louisiana, Im not used to the large city life, especially up north, although i did spend a summer studying in Italy. I was wondering if any of you guys had any tips about the work life up there or just living in new york in general. Thank you!

I can’t say much about the LA intern life since I worked as an intern at NYCDOT, but remember to bundle up before you head up north! NYC can be oppressively cold in the wintertime. I also bought an older version of a NYC NFT guide which I remembered absolutely loving, but this was before I purchased a smartphone. I’d also recommend getting a Citibike pass when it starts to get warmer–it’s a lot more fun than the metro and will probably save you money!
