By far the most well-known New York City neighbourhood outside of Manhattan, and one that really emerged into the NYC scene in recent years is Williamsburg. After moving to Brooklyn a year ago, I started spending a lot of my time in Williamsburg and got to know the...
Visiting the amazing New England Aquarium in Boston
If you're looking for something fun to do on a cold or rainy day in Boston, look no further than the New England Aquarium! Since I grew up near Boston, I visited the aquarium a few times when I was younger with my family and school, but since that was so long ago, I...

Finding A Job That Doesn’t Feel Like A Job
