going to the east coast

[das_t]

i'm going to new york next month and I was thinking about visiting at least one other city while I'm out there. Any suggestions for a second or third city? I need a reasonably cheap place to sleep too.

Northampton, Mass. is definitely a good one - LGBT capitol of the northeast. Boston is too if you can afford it.

I'm thinking about boston. i'm not sure if I can afford it though. I'd probably just stay for a couple of days and if I can find a hostel or maybe somehow find somebody i know in that town, then I'll be ok.

Are you driving?

Philadelphia is nice. Oo, oo, how about RICHMOND??? lol

Fill me in more on the plans, the route you're taking and all that stuff, and I can think better.

How's everything else going?

I'm going to fly, so I have a lot of options. Since my original post, I've decided to go to Philadelphia for sure. I might go to boston after that. I have to figure out how much it's going to cost me to go to nyc and philly before I decide if I'm going to do a third city.

i've been ok otherwise. I'm so glad that this semester is nearly over.

hey, if you go to philly, depending on the dates...you could probably crash with tito...he lives there....just bring him a pot and some mail for me....roar!!

I've got a place to stay, but I can drop off stuff for you.

You can always stay with me and my bf :D we have plenty of room! In boston of course :D

[teljanin]

Actually, I'm sure raymond would be able to put you up as well! Come visit your old college friends... I'm way more lame and lazy, but I know the city really well!

Thanks. What's Raymond's email?

hey... if you end up in boston or maine and need places to stay let me know, also, my friend from ireland will be in nyc around that time and you could probably crash with her :) oh yeah, so your doom (me moving in) ahahhaahaha um. yeah. i start work on the 21st, and am going to a wedding on the 20th, and i'll be in town on 16th, so in theory i'll be moving in sometime between the 16th and 20th... and if you know anyone with a truck who might want to help me bring over my matress....? awsome :)

again, you've got a place in Philly.

Northampton is wonderful, of course, and I'm going to be there for my ten-year reunion next week. Northampton is a lot closer to NYC than Boston: it's about halfway between. I actually went to NY more in college than Boston.
