Although some minor things (like receiving the visa, finding a place to live, etc.) are still to be sorted out, I can happily announce where my journey will continue: In no other city than NEW YORK (…city)!
Whereas my first internship search was driven by two motivations – I wanted to start off in a renowned office and at the same time in a rather beautiful or interesting city in Europe – this time I had one explicit goal: I wanted to spend my North America – internship in NYC! Not only because visiting this amazing city has been on my bucket list for a very long time, but also because New York takes a leading innovational role in the American architecture scene with several world-renowned offices being located there. I am glad that it finally worked out.
Though it would have been awesome to work with one of these world-renowned firms, I am also looking forward to collaborating with Architecture Work Office for six months. They are a small studio founded in 2012, which has completed several interior projects and participates in interesting competitions. Coming from a well established firm, I am sure it will be very exciting for me to experience how a small office is working on getting their share.
I am already counting the days… See you in Big Apple!
I took this new chapter of the journey as an occasion to reorganize this blog: Now there is a NAVIGATION page, where you can sort the articles by location. Also I made the ABOUT section more understandable and added a FIND ME page.
