Smile New York City

July 10th, 2012

Hi, I would like to invite you to support my personal project entitled "Smile New York"
It's a non-profit project and promise you NO MARKETING or whatsoever. I just want to share my aim to show the world that New Yorkers can smile too! Before I moved here to NYC from CA my friends and family warned me about how peopl can be rude here, but I believe NYC people are nice too.

Like my project here: https://www.facebook.com/smilenewyorkcity

Here's my first photo which I also posted here in 365

Hope you support me :D

The last time I was in New York the guy who stole my wallet had a BIG smile on his face. I would have taken his picture, but he stole my camera too.

@cromwell I'm sorry to hear that. I know that somehow NYC has a bad image, personality wise. But this is what I'm trying to prove that they are nice too

I found that New Yorkers were really friendly. Great idea

@josephpadiernos -- Awww, I was just kidding. He really only stole my socks and underwear. The joke was on him. I didn't wash 'em.

PS: I'm an ex-New Yorker. I think this is a great idea. Wishing you much success!

I've lived in NY my whole life and when you got 8 million people living together you're gonna get a few bad apples. But I see acts of kindness and friendship everyday here - and when the chips are down NYers readily give a stranger a hand. So not quite sure where you're coming from? And from my experience here on 365 over almost a year - people from all over the world love NY!
