I quit my job writing/debugging code for a SMS/WAP gateway at a generic telecoms company in Ireland back in 2001. My plan was to head towards Asia, and come back via Eastern Europe.
I had a friend in NYC who said "well, naturally if you are doing that you should come to NYC first" which made zero sense, but I did it anyway. I arrived the week after 9/11.
I have been here twenty years and I'd argue I'm still getting to know NYC.
IMHO I'd recommend 20 years per city/country to get a good taste for it.
