Kacy Cunningham: Response #2



I came to Boston from rural New Hampshire and to say it was a change and a shock would be an understatement. At home it takes at least thirty minutes to get to the closest store and here everything you need is within grasp.  At first the city overwhelmed me with its options, buildings, people, and noise. In New Hampshire if I got turned around I’d look to the landscape to find my way home. Here I do the same thing except architecture is now the landscape.  Instead of orientating myself around the mountains and the lake I use unique buildings and historical landmarks. Eventually I learned if I could see the Prudential, the MassArt tower, or Fenway I was fine and could make my way home.
