If there was one city that I had a choice to live in and where cold isn’t a factor, my first pick would be Boston. There is just something about the city that draws you in. Maybe it’s from the charming neighborhoods or that everyone there is so nice or maybe because they have public transportation and for most, they just walk. Whatever the case may be, for James & Ching, this is the place where James proposed to Ching, well, Harvard to be exact. These two live at Harvard, but are having their wedding in LA this summer, which I can’t wait for! I met James & Ching over Skype, which was the only way we could have all chatted face to face. Thank goodness for technology! During the session at Harvard, we had a great time learning about the campus and more importantly, walking the steps they walked, the places they studied at and ate at, which made this session even more special! James & Ching, thank you for being such great tour guides on our trip to Harvard and for treating us to some outstanding Afghanistan food!
Biking or riding the “T” is the only way to go!
These are the gates to enter Harvard.

Inside Harvards beautiful library.
No photos were allowed, but we were quiet.
This was the basement level to the library.


This was not a planned shot. Ching’s feet just hurt walking, so James just carried her around.
This is where they hold the graduations at Harvard and you can tell it was very windy that day.


This is the dining hall where they still eat everyday at.
When I think about brick buildings, I think about Boston.
We spent some time in the library where they studied many late hours in. 
I love how Ching always laughs and smiles around James. 
Boston.
This is the walk way at MIT that had the great view of the city.

The John W. Weeks Bridge is where James proposed to Ching. 

Amazing historic buildings and tippy toe kisses made this day perfect!
