On the whole I'd rather be in Philadelphia

by Phillylawyer_19107 - last update: Jul 15, 2003

Introduction

When I moved to Philadelphia in 1998 to start my LL.M. studies at Temple University, I didn't really know much about this city except that it was somewhere between New York and Washington and that the Declaration of Independence was written here. Over the year that I lived there, I grew to love this wonderful city. It wasn't love at first sight, I think, Philadelphia reveals its beauty gradually. I could write about this my dear Philly all day, but unfortunately, my time is very limited and so I will do updates once in a while whenever I have the chance. Be patient with me and I promise to do my best to share as much information and photos as possible over the next weeks.

 Great tips! I love Philly too. By the way, Lord and Taylor has just become Macy's!

 I'm another Temple graduate... way before your time. I grew up in Philly and your photos are lovely. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay in the States!
