“Four chances to start anew”

"I really love the seasons in New England. We don’t have them in San Diego and it’s beautiful here when the leaves turn or snow is falling. My favorite fall event is the Pumpkin Fest at City Hall. They have 1,000’s of lit jack-o-lanterns on display in the plaza around Halloween. It’s really cool to see.."

“History comes alive in the city”

"I chose Boston because it’s the birthplace of our nation and, being a history guy, I really like that. The Freedom Trail is really amazing because it takes you to so many historic sites that are integrated into the fabric of busy city life."

“We mix it up”

"Boston is such a college town...when we have events on our campus there are always kids from at least four to five other schools. Students mix socially all the time which makes it fun."
