chriskurdziel.com: Some thoughts for intern[1]

the love-fest continues…

Some of my favorite moments have been on the beach at home on Cape Cod, running races and doing a triathlon together, cooking in our tiny apartment, teaching Daisy to surf and snowboard for the first time (yes, this was actually fun!), seeing the Yeah Yeah Yeahs play ‘Maps’ acoustic at Radio City Music Hall… 

…but still, the most vivid moment was a year ago today, sitting on a bench watching the sunset together from the tip of Manhattan.
