Esther: Greetings and welcome to NYC from another Esther who is also Canadian and who is also living in NYC. My husband and I have been here since 2001 and I would love to meet you and to have a "how to get on in NYC" conversation as well as a "here are some people you should meet" etc.
Please do contact me directly at ewingcha...@gmail.com or call me at 212-661-6024 and we'll arrange to meet. You will have lots of fun here.

Hello everyone, Anyone out there in New York City? Ill be moving there at the end of June or early July for a couple of years! Im following my husband, who will be working at the Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations. Be ready to be surprised we say in OS? Well, this was a big surprise, and a good one too! Ill have a work permit for the States so Id welcome any info, tips or ideas that I could explore to work with NGOs, UN agencies, governments, the private sector, and communities. Im all ears. And if you need a hand in opening space, Id be happy to help! Ill remain a Canadian de facto resident, and I intend to continue to be active in Quebec and all over Canada. This is a temporary move and I dont want people here to forget I exist! My e-mail wont change, and New York is only a few hours from Montréal. In fact, I plan to keep organizing the Montréal Cercle Forum ouvert (Stammtisch) every two months. Our last gatherings were quite inspiring. Tree, when I saw the PS to your message about whos going to WOSonOS, needless to say it resonated with me! Its a superb opportunity and Im being open to all that can be. I wont be lap swimming outdoor all year round, but itll certainly be a wonderful adventure to live and hopefully open space in the Big Apple and elsewhere. I hope I can get to San Francisco and meet some of you in person at the end of July but Ill have to decide at the last minute. It will all depend on how the move goes. Im confident that itll go just fine. Whoever Whatever Whenever Cheers!
