I remember back when I made my first trip to Boston back in 1992. It was a trip made on a lark. My plans for a trip to Maine had fallen through and I had a roundtrip ticket from Fargo to Boston and a week off from work and I didn’t want to waste either of them. It proved to be a very wild vacation.

I arrived at Logan Airport late at night. I had no idea where to go, but I did have the phone number of a friend of a friend and she told me to call her when I got in so I did. I gave her a call and she told me to meet up with her at a T station in some far flung suburb. I was riding the T late at night and had no idea where I was going or what I was doing. I was kind of taking a series of sightseeing tours under Boston.

Finally, I met this girl from Colombia who only spoke Spanish. Lucky for me that I speak Spanish. She started directing me around but then she said she was going to a club so I said, why not. I had no idea about things to do in Boston and I really didn’t want to meet up with the friend of a friend when I had a beautiful Colombian guide. Off to the club we went.

I ended up spending a week getting to know a lot of things about Colombia, Latin America, and Boston. It was a great trip and a total adventure, but now that I am married, I prefer to the kind of tours that Trusted Tours and Attractions provides. They’ll help you find things to do in New York City and many other cities.
