Any Spotify people here? Noticed there’s an AM role going at the moment in the UK but not sure what experience level it is. For reference I’ve got 6 years in ad sales experience with 3 years management (both in music industry). Would this be comfortable or is it worth holding out for AD?

If you’re in seaport taking a ferry out to the harbor islands is awesome - a super accessible national park
Fairly regular schedule https://www.bostonharborislands.org/ferryschedule/
Eventide is a great seafood / oyster spot near Fenway - definitely go when you see the Sox! They are known for their oysters and lobster roll.
If you enjoy riding bikes, look into getting a pass for blue bike. It’s a great way to explore the city. Boston is pretty small and biking is a quick and easy way to get around. You’re going to find standstill traffic in Seaport during rush hour.
I personally would never recommend the harbor islands unless that’s what you’re into. I would say walk the esplanade (picnics there are great), stroll the commons/public garden, and maybe Newbury street if you like stores
I’ve lived in Boston (actually Boston - not a surrounding town) my entire life and never once felt the need to go to the islands. And I’ve never heard anyone suggest it. You do you
Also - if you’re into Italian food definitely check out the North End! If weather is good (or honestly - even if it’s not) a walk along the harbor walk is awesome
You might get some people who say some are better than others but those are their personal favorites. I think they’re all awesome. Personally, I eat at whichever restaurant has the shortest line
MFA, ICA, Gardner Museum, Harvard museums, BSO, Pops, walk the Freedom Trail. Historic sites in near western suburbs - Lexington, Concord as well as in the North End. I also agree about the Harbor Islands if you want to spend time outdoors. Lots of hiking and kayaking/canoeing opportunities close by. Duck boats if you just want to ride.
OP - Boston and surrounding towns have much to offer but you didn’t tell us anything about what interests you. Fenway is fun, but can be miserable if the weather and the Sox are bad.
This is really just brushing the surface, we are small in geography but there is a lot going on in the various universities and beyond. Let us know what to narrow in on and we can be more helpful.
Really up for anything. Pretty varied interest.
Mainly looking for an experience that's uniquely Boston.
