It s going to be tough. Many people from the West Coast don t like New York no matter what you expose them to here and vice versa.Your best bet is to find a lot of places that you think will interest him...if he s into art, take him to museums, etc. Hopefully he s not all about surfing or you may be in trouble.
The Cloisters, Staten Island Ferry The Guggenheim Museum. But you can NEVER make someone love :( ! As the old jazz number goes, If love ain t there, it ain t there! Sad but TRUE, Alas :( !
