If you've ever moved from New York, you know there are things that you will miss. In the case that you happened to move to Florida, or are just taking a long break here, you will notice that things just aren't the same in Florida. Here are some examples of what you'll miss.
1. The bagels and rolls.
Even if you get a bagel or roll, it will not taste remotely close and you will go and get one once you get back to New York. Also, let's not even get into it about a bacon, egg and cheese.
2. Everything being fast-paced.
In N.Y., everything is so fast. The people, the driving and the service. In Florida you have to wait for everything, and everyone and nothing will frustrate you more than being behind a slow person.
3. Being close to the city.
By "the city" we all know it's the great NYC. Even if you don't go to the city that often or don't find it to be as special as everyone says, that's okay. Its your city and you know that no one can talk bad about it because when it comes down to it, it's the best place in the world.
4. The pizza
Lets not even get into the topic of pizza. New York pizza is the best and it's impossible to find a pizza place that compares in Florida (or anywhere else for that matter).
5. The holidays
The holidays in New York are magical. The weather gets colder and all of the trees are decorated. And let's not forget about the holiday workers that make everything so spirited. When you're in Florida they tend to decorate palm trees and you can still go to the beach. That just doesn't scream "holidays" to me.
6. The changing leaves in the Fall
Hands down, fall is my favorite season. The leaves change and that crispness begins to flow in the air. It's magical. When you're in Florida all you have are some palm tree leaves falling down. It's just not the same.
7. The mountains for hiking
Hiking the mountains is a great way to be with friends and get some exercise. There are so many options in New York of places to go. However, everything in Florida is pretty much flat and the "mountains" they have are nothing even close.
8. The people
Let's not forget about the people. Nothing compares to the people you see in New York, especially the city. Anytime someone does something crazy, you just tend to ignore it because in reality, nothing is too crazy for N.Y. When you're in Florida, you actually tend to miss this craziness since it's a whole different world here.
