一位同事今年跨年時在世界的大蘋果"紐約"度過,幾天的行程下來感想卻是「搞不懂為什麼紐約會被稱為大城市?」。在這個同事口中最名不符其實的國際大都會,人民粗魯、無禮成名。基礎建設雜亂無章,荒廢髒臭的地鐵裡住著幾十萬民流浪漢。布朗克思跟皇后區的某些街區是24小時的治安死角。紐約警察比流氓還蠻橫不講理。南腔北調的紐約式英文更是聽也聽不懂、學也學不來。紐約從來就不是美國,紐約就是紐約,彷彿一個獨立的國家。

Hi Ruby,

 

Long time! We had almost lost track of each other, it's Taiwan and Korea or somewhere as busy as these two countries are. Recently, I can hardly save time for myself. But today is an exception, I feel an urge to write you a card. To let you know here in Taiwan, a friend still remember you and care about your happiness and sadness.

9 days away from New York, the weather turned rather cool. Fall had come and everyone is expecting the season of leaves changing. Now I looked back at this unexpected trip to UK, surely, there was something I experienced on the road worth a talk.

Tourists are used to ignoring another icon besides Statue of Liberty in this city, the New York Taxi. Though it’s never considered as one of must-do things on the travel plan, everyone can talk like gossip girls whenever experiences of New York Taxi is spoken of. So it deserves a couple of pages in the journey.

I hardly take a cab in New York, since I am always so broke. But in the small number of my experience, no one is ordinary for me.
