Here is 5 Mag wrier Kev Obrien‘s adieu mix to his beloved home of New York City.
“It’s all about gratitude at this stage,” he says. “I’m still standing and still making a living somehow doing what I love. That’s what this mix is about. Gratitude. All the amazing years I had in New York, all the amazing friends I made, everything I learned and all the while somehow managing to survive the duration of that time doing things on my terms. As crazy and blind-siding as my exit may have been… it was a true New York experience and wouldn’t have been without that final reminder.”
