  • If you’re apartment hunting in nyc for the 1st time, you need to watch this video. If you’re in-between leases or traveling, you need to watch this video. If you’re already a new yorker, but can’t stand your roommates or neighborhood, you need to watch this video!
    THIS IS MY 2ND EVER APARTMENT HUNT and let’s just say I have standards beyond just price point now! I toured several apts from ranging from studios to 2 bedrooms in 5 different neighborhoods. I included prices, tips, apartment features + how compatible it would be based on your lifestyle and personality.
    Good luck!! I know that you’ll get the apt of your dreams close to your friends. It’s a struggle, but temporary one. Welcome to New York City!

    FAVORITE BOOKS (by women):
    📚 The Light We Carry by Michelle Obama (meant to be an encouraging book of hope during times of change and challenge. kinda like a devotional, but not really)
    📚 Big Friendship by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman (put into words many of the feelings I feel about friendship not in the mainstream yet)
    📚 Defining Decade by Meg Jay (really important to read as a teen girl or in your twenties)
    📚 The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid (yes ik ik it’s a romance novel)
    📚 The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan (honestly helped my relationship with my mom tbh)
    📚 Dear Girls by Ali Wong (listen to the audiobook, it’s 7h of standup comedy of this famous comedian’s life and advice to her two young daughters to read when they are 18)
    📚 Hunger by Roxane Gay (harder read, but opened my eyes to a brutal world that I’m not exposed to)

    FAVORITE QUOTES ABOUT FRIENDSHIP:
    🖋 friends double the joy and halve the pain
    🖋 friends are the siblings god never gave us.
    🖋 a friend is someone with whom you dare to be yourself. a friend is someone who makes it easy to believe in yourself. a friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
    🖋 women’s friendships are like a renewable source of power
    🖋 friendships between women, as any woman will tell you, are built of a thousand small kindnesses… swapped back and forth and over again.

    Jah & Jahes love. Thank you for this wonderful and informative video. I love all of the details that you provided. I am from NYC, and I was born in Brooklyn. But, I've lived in many other cities and states where I attended College and Graduate school. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get a good-paying job to afford a nice apartment. I have similar weather sensitivities and am seriously affected by the Winter months when there is less sunlight. I also don't have many friends and I would like to make some but it's hard when I don't have a stable place to live and income. I am staying at a Stabilizing Center, a shelter space. I have a CityFEPHS voucher but I haven't been able to find a place to rent. I will do the exercise that you recommended at the beginning of the video. Can you please help me find a place to rent that accepts vouchers? The voucher pays up to $2300 (all utilities included). Thank you very much in advance for your help and time. Blessed love.#1804#Ayiti#ToutMounseMoun#AbolishCPS#AbolishPoverty#ProChoice#DefundFosterCare#RawVeganforLife#HR40NOW!
