What you should try in Boston if you are bored
I have customized a couple of lists of activity and date ideas for friends moving to boston. Reach out to me if you are interested.
This whole website is still a little bit of a work in progress, but here are some fun spots.

I would also like to point out that Harvard students get free access to the Museum of Fine arts https://www.mfa.org/ which it's just an amazing place.
I also want to bring attention to the fact that through the Harvard library you are able to book tickets to various interesting attractions around boston which are really expensive otherwise. You should goto your school library and ask the library about it.
If you have lived on campus for a while, you can also get access to some of the discounts available to boston residents and can even get access to some cool attractions for free.
This pass https://gocity.com/en/boston/passes/explorer?duration=2 and similar passes let you go to a bunch of cool places in boston for a discount. Here are some.
- New England Aquarium
- Museum of Science
- Franklin Park Zoo
- Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum
Many of the things include in the pass you can visit for free if you are able to prove you live in boston. (being a college student can count in some cases)
