Yes, Boston.. What a lovely city..
To be honest, I heard it is one of the most racist city in States but the thing I saw they are so happy, friendly, helpful, etc..
Isn't that ironic that we hear something but experience the other. For example, I heard a lot of cold things about British people, they are cold, not friendly, not helpful; and when I went to London, or met some British people in NY, I really appreciated how they are: serious, not over - friendly acts, in a great balance of warm, & kindness..
Let's talk about beautiful Boston..

Let's talk about beautiful Boston..
Typical view of Boston, bikers and ducks |
- In New York, people generally don't use trashes, they just throw their trash to street. Normally I warn people who do that in Turkey, but in NY so many of these kind of ignorant annoying people, so I don't warn, and also it's scary, because people are crazy in the city! I don't want any trouble with them..
- Boston is extremely clean, that's something really makes you happy, relax, and calm..
- Streets are wide & huge but most important I really like the architecture: its like a European city. Although I like to take photos with living creatures, I took so many of the house photos, because they are pretty.
- I visited so many cities before, I never took city tour. In my opinion the best way to know a city is bicycling or walking, especially the not touristy areas: getting lost, talking with locals, etc. However, Boston have world famous city tour with their ducks; vehicles half boat and half truck. They were ship shaped. That reminded me Riga Engineering Competition I participated years ago which we got different tasks to work on. One of them was designing and building a vehicle which goes on the road and also water. Those were the times..
- Shortly, Boston Duck Tours are great, although I didn't understand our guide very well, to see Boston on the land also on the dirtiest river was absolutely worthwhile.
- In Boston I met with a beautiful - smart girl who didn't date much before because of her parents and now she is 27 can't describe her feelings cause never had them, doubting maybe she likes girls which her parents can never learn..
- I met a cute couple and joined their barbecue. The husband loves to cook and make his own drinks and cocktails. I've drunk the best fresh cucumber drink in their lovely house, yummy..
- I met with a plastic surgery esthetician woman, we talked about botox and it's dirty secret facts..
- A ha! Did you know with just around $200 you can have a DNA test of your father and mother side to learn your ancestors? If it was in the past nobody can be sure what really happened, right? However, our DNA sequences tell some facts about your roots. The question: Would you really want to know that actually you're not Italian, French, Turkish, etc? I'm wondering Hitlers test result, and what his reaction would have been. And also these kind of people who are obsessed with their race.
- And. My favorite TV show Ally Mcbeal was also filmed in Boston.. Ha!
Think, think, think.. |
Flags, everywhere.. |
It's like Velib system in Paris, but this is better! Lovely.. |
Port, with great live street music. It was magical.. |
They were singing & giving me poses.. |
You better bring your passport, cause in Boston you can't drink alcohol with your international ID. |
They asked this architect to build something in this square and he said "what am I gonna do, they are so beautiful structures." And he ended with this design reflect the others! Isn't it hilarious? |
Sailing in the Charles River: dirties river |
Okay, that's a Starbucks picture, but interesting part is: did you know in this small city Boston, there is more than 100 Dunkin Donuts? |
Trinity Church, John Hancock Tower, Duck, Copley Square and Boston |
Well, these plants are at so many places |
Another view of Boston |
In Harvard University: I think this door looks pretty magical, and there is no photoshop. |
Barbecue, and spinach-strawberry salad :) |
And good-bye Boston with a great salsa dance party with almost professional dancers! |
Classical Boston Houses? |
Charles River and Kayaking |
