There's some people's version of peace and quiet...

And then there is the open sky, no one around, stars practically falling out of the air into your hands...maybe you'll hear a dog bark...you don't smell anyone else around...you don't even know anyone else exists.

They're more pronounced in places with lower density, even looks unreal sometimes.

People need to stop assuming the whole City of New York is 100% like Midtown Manhattan lol.

(Although looking through this some of what NYC does have is intriguing. They have one of the only Tenrikyo centers in the US)

in and out is just fast food... its better than mcdonalds or burger king but nothing to go crazy about.
