Returning to Bradley Beach

After nine months in Asbury Park, I finally made my way back to Bradley Beach, a change I was truly happy with. I spent time searching for the right apartment, and when I found one I couldn’t pass up, I took a leap of faith. Now that I’m here, I can say with certainty—it was the right move.

This new place has the space, the accessibility, and the cleanliness I was looking for. I have a good relationship with my landlord, and for the first time in a while, I can envision myself staying long-term. It’s a bit more expensive than my last place, but I know the value of that price, and it’s absolutely worth it.

One of the biggest additions is an extra room, which I’ve turned into an office. Having a dedicated space for work and creativity allows me to separate it from my resting time, making this setup feel even more like home.

Just short walks away from the beach and Asbury Park, I can still appreciate and be part of all the action when I want to, while stepping away whenever I need to.
