Coming to New York City Podcast

My sister Kelly is finally on the podcast — and we are kicking things off with something big.
In this episode, Kelly and I are introducing Come With Us, a curated women's group trip to Vietnam. I went for the first time last fall and knew immediately I had to go back and bring people with me. So that's exactly what we're doing.
We cover everything you'd want to know before saying yes — safety, five-star accommodations, the one-night cruise through Halong Bay, the food, packing tips, and why we're only taking 18 women. Kelly asks all the questions you're probably thinking, and I answer from real, firsthand experience.
If you've been waiting for the right moment to do something bold — this might be it.
We're extending the early bird registration, so you have time to think it through and send in your questions. But we're only taking 18 women total, so don't wait too long.
Whether you come with a friend or show up solo and make new ones along the way, this is one of those trips you will not regret.

In this episode of the Coming to New York City Podcast, Nils and I take a deep dive into our journey of living in New York City through four very different apartments over the past 11 years.
From a creaky brownstone walk-up in Park Slope to a doorman building on the Upper East Side, a spacious four-bedroom on Roosevelt Island, and now our home in a modern Greenpoint high-rise, we share the pros and cons of each space. You'll hear our stories of raising kids in small apartments, dealing with mice, navigating one-bathroom living, and discovering the value of neighborhood community.
We also compare practical details that can make or break an NYC apartment and offer advice for anyone considering a move to New York. Whether you're curious about real estate, planning a move, or just love hearing real stories of city living, this episode shares honest insights into what it's really like to live in NYC.
