“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."

“I feel safe in Boston”

"I’m not a city girl, but it¹s really easy to get around on the subway. The “T” is right outside of our dorm and we take it all the time. The other night it was late and we walked home through the city and it was lit up with lots of people around. I feel safe here."

“There's always something interesting to do”

Boston is a manageable city but it still has tons of culture and so much going on. The other day I was walking through a neighborhood and there was some random street festival with people dancing and music. There are concerts and great museums. I just have to go out in the city to find something fun to do.
