Croatia and Slovenia
Dobrodošli natrag and Dobrodošli nazaj. I have just returned to Cambridge after travelling to Croatia and Slovenia with Embark Inclusive Travel. Although it was not a formal Threshold trip, we had a great time with many alumni. We had a small group (15 people, including the staff) and I got a twin/single room for theContinue reading “Croatia and Slovenia”
Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl, New York, Dragon Boat Festival
After my volunteer job on Thursday, we attended the Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl in Government Center. It is an all-you-can-eat ice cream festival and a nice way to beat the heat. Neither Mia nor I had never been but it was supporting a cancer institute and we had both encountered family losses to cancer soContinue reading “Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl, New York, Dragon Boat Festival”
New York Day Trip
On Sunday, I participated in a day trip in New York City with Threshold students and alumni, which was a lot of fun.

Kiowa Island
On Saturday, I returned to Boston from Kiowa Island. Although the flight was smooth logistically and I gate-checked, the transport from Logan was hectic because there was no connection in the ride-share lot so my parents ordered an Uber for me. They messed up the terminal but it worked out in the end. It wasContinue reading “Kiowa Island”

Quadfest, CCV, Bowling, Red Sox Game
Another busy week here at Threshold. On Saturday, we attended the Quadfest event, which is sponsored by Lesley University. It was a lot of fun and there was even a fake pool that was the photo booth. They had a lot of the same activities as the Senior Week beach party at South Campus lastContinue reading “Quadfest, CCV, Bowling, Red Sox Game”

Martha’s Vineyard (with beach, bike, Outermost, Atria, Jet-Boating, Ice Cream)
We just finished the end-of-summer part of our vacation, which was to Martha’s Vineyard and it was a great closure before move in. Unfortunately, the remarks of various hurricanes were moving through Massachusetts this past week, so the weather was not what I would dream about for a beach vacation. Highlights of the trip
