- I don’t know which one to choose… they’re both very nice. - Maybe both! - Haha, I know… I have a friend who’s leaving New York soon, so I think this could be a nice gift for him. - How long have you been here? - Almost 10 years! - Oh, and where were you before that? - Also New York, but I was upstate… haha.
