Missing #NYC, of course, but this view has me forgetting about it just a little 😍
PS: I wore this top for my FL Medical License photo bc they said shoulders must be showing, but in retrospect they prob didn’t mean bare shoulders 🤭🤷🏻♀️

Officially my last day as a New Yorker.
NYC has changed/shaped me in so many ways since moving there at 28. Filled with gratitude to have spent over a decade in the greatest city in the U.S.
Thanks for the memories, lessons, and friendships, NYC.
Until we meet again ❤️
