I have no idea how I got to your channel, but I needed to hear this with my career and life. Thank you.

[@NeonPolygons]

hello - fellow NYC'er and just discovered your channel and been binging your videos. Just wanted to say great channel and honestly really nice and engaging videos you've been doing. I feel its because of your honesty and humble candor of the realness of NYC. I don't feel a lot of people on KZbin are really painting a realistic picture of living here and the lessons you learn living here. Appreciate you always keeping it real and looking forward to seeing your channel grow.

[@ChelseaCallahan]

wow thank you for taking the time to write out such kind words! I appreciate you being here, and thank you for watching 🙂

[@7931lila]

Another great video that I need to rewatch and take notes from. Thanks for sharing your wisdom, Chelsea. Seriously, thank you.

[@gauravkulshrestha4165]

Such a nice person. Simple and thoughtful.

Im moving to Manhattan in June from Detroit and I’m so grateful for all the you tubers who offer advice. This has been by far the most meaningful video. Thank you so much!

[@ChelseaCallahan]

I'm so glad this could be helpful for you, Michael! Good luck on your move, that's so exciting!

Im binge watching all your videos.. Im going to be sad when i run out, but i still have so many to go..

[@meriahmakes6870]

I love your videos. I think you provide a lot of insight and honesty. You seem to have a honed your ability to look inwards and evaluate what/who is good for you and what/who isn’t anymore. I admire you and hope you continue to create content ❤️

Thanks for another video! I accepted a job offer in the Bronx and will be moving there in July. I don’t know if I’ll be in NYC for just one year, five, or even the rest of my life but I’m thankful for your channel and the perspectives you have. Btw if anyone else here is moving to NYC in July and wants to apartment hunt together just let me know

[@ChelseaCallahan]

that's amazing!! what a great mindset to have. enjoy the adventure! 🙂

I'm so glad to hear this could help 🌸

[@decli5010]

I love your honesty. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. I've watched some other videos from you channel and they proved to be really helpful to me. Lots of love from Brazil.

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Thank you for watching! I’m so glad they have been helpful for you. Lots of love to you in Brazil 💘

[@marissaaurora9572]

Looovvee the candid nature of your vids - I'll keep saying it haha but I loved the piece about reminding yourself why you're there and why you moved in the first place. I think it's something not a lot of people consider in general whether they're moving some place or trying to move on. Coming to a place of acceptance to, as you mentioned, if there's any more left to give on both ends is important to consider always reflect on. So good 🥺✨

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Thank for you leaving such a thoughtful comment, Marissa 🥺💖 I’m so glad it resonated!!!!

[@scaredcitizen9060]

Hi Chelsea, loving your channel! Thanks for your openness - hopefully I’d be as brave as you are when I move👍

[@ChelseaCallahan]

you are so brave! Good luck with your move!!

[@BruteChoi]

Your videos really made my day. I'm moving to nyc in the fall and binging your vids have been really helpful

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Thanks for watching!

[@tiffanykwu]

Love listening to this, and I definitely agree with you! I felt like I had to be more aggressive when I lived in NYC to find opportunities. Thanks for sharing this! It made me reflect~

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Hey Tiffany -- I was curious while making this if anyone who's lived here had any similar thoughts! Thanks for sharing 🙂

[@larissazensmezzo]

Oh my gosh, whenever I worked overtime, I would be so exhausted for the entire next week.

[@ChelseaCallahan]

I don't know how people do it 😅you're right, it's the week after that REALLY sucks lol

[@anna_not_ina]

I love your channel!! 💕💕 I have been wanting to move to NYC for the past 3 years (I think 🤔 lol) and I feel like I am ready to take the plunge and move in the summer of this year and watching this video has given me some things to think about. I know why I want to move, and I really want to move for me. The last time I was in the city, when I left, I didn't feel like I was leaving, I def felt like I'll be back. It was a strong feeling that I'll never forget. Thank you for this video and the more than honest view of living in NYC - It's hard to find that.

[@ChelseaCallahan]

That is so exciting, Christianna!! It's incredible that you had a feeling like that, and are doing something about it (I had the same thing happen to me)! The city will be lucky to have you 🙂✨

[@Seattlebutnot]

I just watched your video of putting furniture together and you mentioned seeking something at Pike Place, you’re from or lived in Seattle! Me too! Such a happy surprise!

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Loooove Seattle! I used to live there in early 2010’s. Happy surprise indeed ❤️

[@MaddieCassidy]

i have no intention of moving to nyc but i seriously love your videos about it for some reason 🤪 my best friend has lived in brooklyn for the past 4 years and i LOVE visiting her...hopefully will be able to again this summer !! 💌

[@ChelseaCallahan]

girl you are the sweetest!! You gotta promise me that if you visit this summer that you will let me know so we can grab a drink or something!! ☀️

[@MaddieCassidy]

@@ChelseaCallahan omg YES PLEASE how fun would that be!!!! YES

[@cheergirl433]

Thank you for making this!! I’m 24 and am doing grad school in NYC online right now and am planning on moving there eventually! ☺️ I’ve been there a lot because I live on Long Island, and know people there but it’s totally different living there

[@ChelseaCallahan]

Congrats on grad school!! Thank you for watching, and best of luck to you for whenever you make your way over here 🙂

[@truthhurts7045]

I love love your videos. It is so hard to find people on YT who are authentic and don’t put on this perfect facade I can’t stand it …. you give me hope. I’m moving to NY with 2 teenage daughters and 2 dogs I saved up 20K I’m looking for apartments. I just filed for bankruptcy because of a divorce and my ex wife trying to take everything. I feel like this is as good as a time as any with rent prices down but I at least have to try. 💪🏽

[@ChelseaCallahan]

I’m so glad my videos resonate with you! I’m rooting for you and your fresh start! ❤️ thanks for watching
