New York Magazine
New York Magazine might very well recommend that a New Yorker take a break periodically from the fast paced life of the Big Apple. Indeed, even the model Manhattanite must get out of the city occasionally, if only to better understand what it means to be an urban dweller by the immediate contrast of rural living.
In this light, we too advise that you rejuvenate your perspective on Manhattan by taking New York travel upstate to East Fishkill in Dutchess County where quaint restaurants, old-world historic sites and the Hudson River atmosphere may change your ideas of a true New Yorker.
Perhaps New York Magazine would also suggest that you visit the hamlets outside of East Fishkill, New York such as Hopewell Junction to take in rustic splendor and upstate New York values. Who knows...you may even find yourself wishing to wind down and join this charming lifestyle of tightly weaved community, school and family.
