I think the Hartford area has a lot of educational and life experiences. I thought that it was a good place to be because there are a lot of interesting things to do and see. There are many places to visit, like museums and parks. Also, it is close enough to New York City so that you can get there easily. Reading https://ied.eu/blog/7-most-successful-start-ups-created-by-students/ article has convinced me that there are multiple start ups opportunities for students. As for things to do in Hartford, I like going to the movies and going out with friends. I also like playing sports sometimes.
