Boston

Boston is considered to be the cradle of the North American nation and known to be one of the oldest and wealthiest cities in the US. This cosmopolitan city, on America’s East coast, is especially interesting for culture vultures as it offers a modern and at the same time old-English atmosphere.
This city inspires learning, research and reasoning. In the numerous bars and clubs, meet the students already planning and programming the new Googles, Facebooks and Youtubes.
Known as the European City in America, London is the inspiration for the many well-kept parks, red brick houses and cobbled stones here, although the American skyscrapers still fill the skies, even if they are not as high as those found in the rest of the USA. You will also find green parks for relaxation.

Boston has a great number of students, studying at Harvard University and at other various colleges and universities around the town, and Massachussets Institute for Technology, or MIT, is found in the Cambridge district. It has a lively cultural scene with some very interesting museums and galleries, as well as a copy of the legendary Mayflower ship in Plymouth, which was the first to bring Europeans across to America. The Atlantic coast and the metropolis of New York are ideal for weekend excursions as they are within a comfortable distance.
