I hope your friend will be happy in SA-I guess after NY it seems like a small city-only just over 1 million people...
I used to like SA when I went to college there in the early 70’s-I was fresh off a W Texas ranch so it was the 1st huge city I’d ever lived in-but it has changed so much since I moved back to a rural area that I don’t work on any jobsites there-the only time I go to SA is to stay with my guy-it is crowded, noisy and unsafe compared to here in BFE-plus out here you can see the stars at night, the air smells clean-and you can crank up your music as loud as you want and no one cares-we all just like to be left alone...
She’ll be fine. She’s from “the valley” as she always called it, presumably meaning the Rio Grande valley. I think her parents are from Mexico.
She moved to SA after high school. She still has tons of friends in SA, and she was always homesick even after five years in NYC.
And now I have to go to SA soon, or she’s going to “punch my face.” Maybe I’ll like that riverwalk thing.
