NYC stay from October till January – all advice appreciated

Help appreciated! 

Someone´s got an advice where to a stay in New York for a PHD Student (my girlfriend – she works on performance studies) and a travelling networker, (thats me – I´m organizing game developer conferences and love all kinds af digital and nondigital culture :))? We simply wanted to try Social Media before spending our room budget (yes there is one) entirely on nuts or AirBnB. ? 

We´re planning to stay in NYC from beginning of November until end of January, and are looking for a place to live and work on our projects from, ideally nearby a metro line connecting to NY Public Library directly. I´m planning to do networking and my GF PHD research, so we´re also happy to get to know a host of people.

So maybe someone knows someone who knows someone who might have heard something – please get in touch!

And maybe someone needs even and flat in Germany, wheras we can provide a nice place in Cologne in exchange …

So, please get in touch – and please contact me under:
