Hey yall, I'm leaving the homeland for six months and shippin up to Boston to work/drink. No reasons really bar inspirational films (the Departed, Gone Baby Gone and Good will Hunting) and the Dropkick Murphy's. So cue questions galore:
Place to stay: I hear Harvard Av is a nice spot and Dorchester is full of Irish but slightly dodgy, other than that I haven't got a clue where to even look for a place. I meeting 2 lads over there but they're not the organised types and won't have anything sorted. Also I will have a bike so transport isn't an issue although the less travel needed the better.
Recommendations?
Work~: The plan is work construction for 2 months and earn enough cash to nearly cover accom for the rest of my stay, then get part time job in a bar or something, then once i know my way around work as a courier. Haven't got any connections there at all or contacts, anyone know anyone there?
Play: Bike polo? hot spots for outdoor drinks, knacker drinking etc.
Bike: Got two frames at home was thinking of bringing one over with me and fixing it over there, cos the dollars so shit I'd save myself a lot. They're only an old peugot and triumph frame so I was thinkin would I be better of picking up a frame over there or wha?
Inspirational stuff
