Here’s a “snippy dialogue” between the suburbs and the city.
Living in Oxford for a year– with a bike instead of a car, a weekly farmers’ market, small specialty shops, fantastic parks, and most everything within walking distance– has definitely molded my thoughts on this issue. Travelling Europe has as well– it’s so easy to settle into Paris and get to know your arrondissement, or neighbourhood in London. Prague and Berlin had great public transportation, and finding something to do, a cozy bar- a cinch.
These things will definitely be swirling around my head as I come to terms with the prospect of answering those typically senior questions.
Maybe I should make that singular:
“What are you doing after you graduate?”
Cue the scream.
