i'm going back to NYC.

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] word and drive at the same time this will be my first trip back to New York City since we moved to California two and a half months ago [Music] [Applause] this whole thing that is leaving California and going back to New York where California is my home in New York's not it all feels very strange I really am losing my touch I just realized I didn't bring my wallet or my passport I mean it's not the end of the world I have my like driver's license and a credit card on the back of my phone but how do you forget to be wallet [Music] to know where the local time is 4:03 p.m. please they feed it all back [Music] one thing I don't miss is the weather thank you it is just pouring rain and cold outside are going to Tribeca well that's yellow better uh well first of all I'm gonna hotel room which feels really strange especially because I can almost see my old apartment out of the window but I guess it's good to be back you know what it kind of feels like it's like when you break up with a lover a girlfriend or a boyfriend or whatever and then you go and you see that person again and you only have all your old memories of what your relationship with that person was like so your expectations are based on it's the same and you're the same person it's the same city but it feels different because it's not it's not like I don't it's good to be back but it it feels it feels weird I feel like a tourist in my own town [Music] do you remember this place are you doing I literally don't have any keys to my own office I remember my old studio still work-in-progress getting there getting there wall hanging not that huh no it's great I don't remember the code ah it's so good to be back I had to uh I had to text my old assistant to get the key code to get into my own office it's good to be back package from YouTube they sent this to me before I move I didn't get it we hope you're moved from east to west is as smooth as it can be of your friends at YouTube it's a framed screenshot of New York City from one of my videos it's one of those disposable like coffee cups but it's ceramic thanks YouTube so what's it like to be back in here well for starters I don't think I ever realize how cool this space is by gosh incredible in here but more seriously a friend of mine who moved from New York to California same move we did said you don't you miss New York City you don't miss being in New York City and I think that's true it's dark and cold and rainy and there's trash everywhere it's like a harsh place to be this city but it's amazing and the idea of it and what the city represents and what this city is is something that I romanticized and I missed and I I like I long for it in California but being back here reminds me that like this city just like everything else in life has its virtues that make it great and then they have the things about it that are kind of tough it was those things those there's the parts of this city that make it so harsh that motivated us to move our family 3,000 miles away and even being back here for like 12 hours really brings that into light [Music] it's 5:00 a.m. in New York City 5 a.m. [Music] [Music] so this is the work thing that I came back to New York City for hey there Casey back in Los Angeles here this is an ad a sponsor for this video from Nord VPN Nord VPN is a VPN that I use and I used before they became a sponsor of my channel and they do a number of things that I find incredibly useful more it has thousands of servers in 61 countries so one of the things that I do when travelling abroad is I connect to a server back here in the United States of America so when I go to Netflix or other sites like that that work differently in other countries they work just the way they did when I'm here in Los Angeles this is especially useful in places like China that have a firewall that prevent you from going to YouTube useful in countries that don't give you access to Netflix also when I connect to the internet like in that hotel I'm staying in New York when I go through Nord that hotel cannot monitor my Internet traffic and Nord VPN does not log my data or any of its users data which means they're not keeping track of the sites you're going to and for a limited time you get 70% off a three-year plan Nord VPN comm / Casey the special offer means that your

Spoiler: He goes back for a business trip. The video is a VPN ad.

Everything about Sam is a ripoff from Casey. Even the small things like the key fob on his wrist.

[u/Axle-f]

Nothing of substance here. Great editing and soundtrack as usual, but it feels like a daily vlog when that medium is kinda dead now.

[u/adventureiscalling]

peep the NYS license @0:55. Casey can't give up NY completely!

[u/flyingkiwi9]

Expect midlife crisis Casey in 6 months...

I don't think he wants to be in Cali at all. Just his girls are more important than NYC.

dont remember him pausing a video in the middle for an add before
