Traveling around Boston

Hi everyone!

I hope you are doing great. After finishing the Problem Sets due to the last week, I decided to travel to Boston for the weekend and visit one of my best friends there. Some people would say that studying in Europe has it certain advantages, because you can travel around from country to country. However, this is also true for those who want to pursue studies in the US. Such a big country offers hundreds of possibilities to travel, including beautiful national parks and several of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world (like New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, etc).

This time, we travel to Boston and get to know a beautiful city full of universities and with a vibrant life. We went to Harvard University and eat seafood in the waterfront of Boston!

So if you get to manage efficiently your time, don't stay there and go travel around! These are one of the best quality-price cheap ways to travel within the US (some of them also travel internationally):

• JetBlue (by plane)
• Southwest Airlines (by plane)
• US Airways (offers wonderful prices if you're looking with sufficient time in advance)
• Greyhound (by bus)
• Peterpan (by bus)
• Megabus (by bus)
• Amtrak (by train, check for the local train services in every city)

If you're planning to come to the US for your graduate studies, don't miss Boston if you want to learn more about the american history and culture.
