Thank you so much to everyone who has enjoyed this video! I have created a Boston playlist so hopefully I will make more content in the future! As of now, I just released a video regarding the costs of Boston here: th-cam.com/video/j98kstyi-To/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Hadel-LynnLeyco Feel free to check out my playlist and my channel for more content!
I am from Boston, Southie actually, and your skin getting that dry and cracking is a regular thing around here. Gold Bond ultimate healing hand cream will be your best friend. I use that stuff, it's the only thing that has worked for me.
I’m moving over from L.A. seeing a sister out in Boston brings me a lot of comfort. I’m Mexican, have you had the impression there’s a thriving Mexican community in Boston?
Also, as far as movie sets go, quite a few movies that are supposed to be set in the pacific northwest or Alaska were filmed in MA(cheaper to film in Ma). The topography of New England looks a lot like those areas. The movie "The Proposal" with Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock, was set in Alaska but was filmed in Rockport, Ma. Looks EXACTLY like Alaska/pacific northwest up there.
I just moved to boston (technically Natick for work) and this video is quite helpful. BTW, I really like your sense of humor and your energy in general! will be checking out your other vids!
Love it! Welcome to the East side! I live about 30 min from Boston in the city of Lowell. I loved hearing all about your move and new experiences. Thanks!
Love the video.!! Can you do one talking about the utilities and rent. How much is the general cost of living. And doing grocery. I’m planning to move to boston and I need all the info
No surprised people are moving here in Boston, we have the best health care, best hospitals, best doctors, I live in Framingham but go to Boston a lot for events at the TD Garden, not only do they film a lot in Boston but here in Framingham as well, I’m waiting for my section 8 so I can get out of the Ham and move into the city life. Boston is so fun to walk around and love the subways. If you ever come to Framingham come to my chick fil A, and the only thing I still hear from bostonians is wicked lol. Welcome to Massachusetts 🥰
Your fellow Pinoys here living in Quincy. 😊 Take a quick trip here on a weekend and go to Kam Man and Sure Pinoy grocery store get that food craving fix - and you’ll feel right at home again. 💙
I'm from Boston and live here i ride my bicycle everywhere. I've never met a Filipino person before you should just buy a bicycle it's cheaper than riding the T
I've considered getting a bike sometime! For me the T is free because the place I work at covers the costs of a monthly pass so I'm really trying to take advantage of that
Ahhh your mom is the best for making you chicken adobo 🤧 You killed me at “….there’s no seafood city” Lol I’m only half Filipino but I totally feel you. Also, thank you much for this video. It’s much appreciated as where I am trying to figure out where I wanna move!!
I'm a Filipino and will be moving to Boston Feb 2022 from PH. Your videos are very helpful. If anybody could recommend where I should look for a place to stay, that will be much appreciated. I will most probably take the T for work.
This really depends on whether you prioritize proximity to work, price, and/or location. Relatively cheap places tend to be near the end of the T lines so I would start there since the commute is a bit longer
I just moved to Boston this past November and I guess the TH-cam algorithm finally figured it out :D Great vid! I hope you're enjoying the city as much as I have so far!!!
We Bostonians learned to not have an accent by hanging out with people who don't have accents. Because we got tired of being told by people not from Boston that we have the accent.
@@HadelLynnLeyco I'm being silly on the point. In fact, in 1968, I met and talked with people from all over the planet, while remaining in Boston. Then one day I met some people from California, who -- a first -- said that I had an accent. I coolly but politely pointed out that "I'm FROM HERE," and THEY were the visitors, so if anyone had an accent it was the "foreigner". Otherwise, people with accents tend to "adapt" to the local "accent" once the novelty of being challenged for having an accent from somewhere else wears off. The latter is, of course, speculation, because I don't have an accent. :]
Thanks for the video hun. I live in Orlando FL. Wish i could live there but man this reminds me of why it's so touch. Walking on foot,expensive prices and the cold. It's a lot of physical work. Rent for a studio is $1400 here now. Millions of people live here now. I might do a video too
I want to live in Boston because originally I wanted to move to Japan but it’s too far and I wouldn’t be as close to my family as I would want to and also ITS SO EXPENSIVE LIVING IN TOKYO!! So I thought Boston would be closer to where I currently live
Boston's water is hard. So when you take a shower you need to lotion up after. That also contributed to dryness. Get Shea butter of Amazon. It's way more moisturizing
Yeah, a ton of movie production out here. There were some sizable tax breaks given out about 20-25 years ago and productions have been moved out here for years. I now live in Worcester and many residents will say they have seen many famous actors out here.
I will move there with my kids next year, before that i didn't visit to come here yet as Covid-19. So the video clip is very useful for me. Looking forward to have more information about Boston. Thank you.
Thank you for your videos about Boston! I'm coming to visit soon and I'm wondering if you have any recommendations on what I should bring in terms of coats and clothes for early February weather?
Have you visited the wax museum? I didnt get to see that. I loved the train ride to wonderland. Big indoor market. Not sure of they still have it. Years ago they had sand castle making in boston some where but I cannot remember where i saw the amazing sculpture people made.
Thanks for addressing the accent thing. If I have one more person say, “pahk yah cah in hahvad yard,” when I say I’m from Boston... I’ll slap them. (Also, funny I loved to california from Boston)
Personally, I hate using lotion. I hate any greasy, slippery feeling on my hands and seeing residue on anything I touch. To lessen the need to use lotion, I always have thin fleece gloves for anytime I'm outside, even if it's not particularly cold. Under 50 degrees. Honestly, it's the wind that will dry your skin more than the cold...
I'm wearing underwear + jeans, t-shirt + down jacket, a knit hat. It's 15F today. No need for layers. If you live in Boston long enough you will get used to the cold. Or probably my body fat keeps me warm.
Hey, I am a tech entrepreneur, 36yo I am between Austin and Boston, I like the Austin vibe however, I do not want to own a car and I don't like the weather, in the other hand, I like Boston and the fact that is a walkable city, but what I don't like is the cost of living what should I do?
I have no experience in Austin life. For Boston, I would recommend doing research on what neighborhoods that will be in your budget and what quality of life you want in Boston. Due to COVID, there are still many places that have lowered their prices due to less people moving so take advantage of those deals. I will be releasing a video soon about the cost of Boston so stay tuned!
I just released a new video regarding the cost of living if that may help you further decide if you haven't already. Feel free to check it out on my channel!
TH-cam recommended your video to me!! Later this year, I’m moving to Boston… I’m currently looking up videos to acclimate myself once I get there slowly mentally. I'm from the Napa/SF Bay Area… so I’m sure the switch-up will be an adjustment… and no Filipino food!? ANSABI!?
There is one Filipino restaurant but it is a combined Jamaican-Filipino place called Bright Light. It's small but they make delicious fresh lechon! Unfortunately, they are a pretty far commute.
@@HadelLynnLeyco Summers are glorious, though. Not as hot or humid as NYC or DC, and the town empties out which is great. No Pinoy food? No big loss...Who needs Filipino food when you've got Thai and Viet? Sorry...:) Don't flame - I live in SEAsia...Now, I do love the Filipino tocino and the Filipino breakfast (garlic fried rice, fried eggs on top and a side of Tocino).
You know when you watch movies like Good Will Hunting and they all have that Boston accent? Yeah, not real. It's maddening as a lifelong MA resident to hear these movies and shows with over the top accents. I've personally done work for a lot of Boston's top actors and their on-screen accents are far stronger than their real accents. Most MA residents hate Boston based movies because of this. Now, as for accents, each locale in and around Boston can have much different accents. Those in Southie used to be strong, true. But much of Southie is now very gentrified. Boston has gotten so expensive, many former lower class places are full of high end condos. Anyways, other places with strong accents are towns close to Boston such as Everett and Revere. But most of the Boston area doesn't have those strong accents, as a whole.
Great video, Hadel-Lynn, you are so natural in front of the camera. In my channel it's all about real estate but I am sure many people appreciate your candor.
Bostonia Condita 1630 Welcome to our elegant city. The subway system is the first in the country 1897 Also Boston Police department first in the country1630. And its Lobstah not Lobster and Chowdah not Chowder best seafood anywhere from cold New England Waters
All I know is that in Quincy there is a small Filipino mart. Unfortunately the restaurant there closed down as well. There is also one in Somerville but that looks a tad pricey so I haven't tried it yet.
Informative , I’m Not Philippines but would love to try your food 🥘, can you tell us more about the rents and prices etc , your apartment looks nice bright and spacious
I feel kinda bad for you because of covid you don't get the full Boston experience there's always things to do and so many free events in the summer the pride parade the Puerto rican festival clubs they do Shakespeare in the park for free in the commons every summer the firework show from the Boston esplanade i can go on but you get what I'm saying
The reason you don't hear the accent as much is because most of the working class neighborhoods have gone through gentrification. They have mostly entirely new populations
I would say Boston has very great schools! In terms of diversity, I still am used to being the only Filipino in the room and it can still be considered relatively white depending on where you are. From my experience, it tends to be closer to the universities that there are more diverse populations as well as East Boston.
@@HadelLynnLeyco There were two C-Marts -- one in downtown Chinatown, and one across the highway in the South End. The latter is apparently being replaced with high-rise expensive housing. They had significant sections of various Asian foods. I believe the one in Chinatown does the same, but haven't been there in some time. There is also "Ming's" in the S. End, but that is most likely Chinese-focused.
Omg you moved here from San Diego???? Guuuurl I wanna move to San Diego, I am very done with the winters in Boston it's so depressing lol. Moving to FL soon 😍😍😍
@Chanel555 Addict -- how bad are the winters in Boston? -- significantly worse than New York or about the same? I'm asking because I live in NY, but don't like it much and have been considering Boston for quite some time now.
Im 41 amd single . Should I move to Boston? How is the job market. Does it feel unsafe nowadays like NYC. Are there high cases on asian attacks over there?
I for sure feel a lot safer being around Boston than in NYC. In terms of Asian attacks, I personally haven't experienced any and the amount I've been hearing about is very small. It really depends on what your job is
I would say when it was a little tough due to COVID. I work where half the time I'm in the office and half the time I'm not so I didn't get as much interaction. I feel like with things reopening there's more chances to meet people
Make friends with the bartenders and servers FIRST. Then they will vouch for you, know where all the good parties are after 2am. TIP HEAVY, they make shit for wages. Allston Comm Ave and Harvard Ave bars, Middle East, and Brighton. All T accesible plus good dive bars everywhere.
Boston has five million unwritten social rules. You fuck up the least little bit ppl look at you like youre a psycho. People take a while to get to know you, trust is Huge up there. Think Goodfellas, you want people to say youre a good shit. Get ready for sarcastic smartasses give it right back to em

What made you leave San Diego for Boston? -- school, work, family?
Work!
@@HadelLynnLeyco - is Boston as expensive as SD in your opinion?
Depending on where in San Diego you live yes
I am from Boston, Southie actually, and your skin getting that dry and cracking is a regular thing around here. Gold Bond ultimate healing hand cream will be your best friend. I use that stuff, it's the only thing that has worked for me.
Wonderful to have a down-to-earth review of a new resident. I love “I am riding on a piece of history”
I've lived in the Boston area my whole life. Glad you're enjoying it so far!
Thank you! I'm really enjoying it here 😊
I’m moving over from L.A. seeing a sister out in Boston brings me a lot of comfort. I’m Mexican, have you had the impression there’s a thriving Mexican community in Boston?
I would say hit up East Boston 😊
I know a lot of Mexicans in Chelsea.
Not really, at most there is between 10% in Massachusetts or New England overall.
Great tips! Moving to Boston from the Philippines next month! Will definitely bring dry ingredients and spices for Filipino dishes! Thanks!
Also, as far as movie sets go, quite a few movies that are supposed to be set in the pacific northwest or Alaska were filmed in MA(cheaper to film in Ma). The topography of New England looks a lot like those areas. The movie "The Proposal" with Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock, was set in Alaska but was filmed in Rockport, Ma.

Quincy Borders Boston

Boston’s my favorite city I hope you’re enjoying it 🔥 I love it here I pray I never move
Great video! We may be planning a trip up to Boston in June, so this was all great information!
Why thank you!
I just moved to Boston this past November and I guess the TH-cam algorithm finally figured it out :D
Great vid! I hope you're enjoying the city as much as I have so far!!!
I have lived in the Boston area almost all my life. 50 years! I have noticed a steep decline in the accent.
Wow that is very interesting to hear! I'm glad to know that it's not just me seeing it from an outside perspective
I grew up in Brockton , have accent . Most people live in suburbs that have accents
Hi, fellow PH here. I lived in RI and I travel alot in Boston. There’s a filipino store and a restaurant in Quincy. I hope that helps!
We Bostonians learned to not have an accent by hanging out with people who don't have accents. Because we got tired of being told by people not from Boston that we have the accent.
Ahhh ok makes sense

Such a great video! I am also from San Diego and moving to Boston in three months :)
Well happy early welcome to Boston!
Don't want to steal attention from Hadel-Lynn, If you need a real estate help, let me know
Thanks for the video hun. I live in Orlando FL. Wish i could live there but man this reminds me of why it's so touch. Walking on foot,expensive prices and the cold. It's a lot of physical work. Rent for a studio is $1400 here now. Millions of people live here now. I might do a video too
As a Texan who's seen snow twice in there life and im pretty sure 98% of that "snow" was ice im rethinking moving to boston
I want to live in Boston because originally I wanted to move to Japan but it’s too far and I wouldn’t be as close to my family as I would want to and also ITS SO EXPENSIVE LIVING IN TOKYO!! So I thought Boston would be closer to where I currently live
I've actually lived in Japan but not Tokyo!
Wow cool!
Hi, we're moving to Boston in July from Europe and we liked your video. Thanks for the information! We're preparing the layers ;-)
Wow thank you so much! I'm glad this was helpful for you!
Moving from where? Why!
Layers indeed
Love this video, can't wait for more! thank you!
Thank you so much!
I used to frequent Boston quite often in the 90's. I found the people to be politely blunt...
My favorite city!
I love this video so much! Thank you for the information & you’ve definitely got yourself a new subscriber 🙌🏽💯
Boston's water is hard. So when you take a shower you need to lotion up after. That also contributed to dryness. Get Shea butter of Amazon. It's way more moisturizing
I'll try that thanks for the suggestion!
Shit you need that just to survive the winter
I love boston :) Hope you're loving your stay in my city
Yes I absolutely love it here!
Yeah, a ton of movie production out here. There were some sizable tax breaks given out about 20-25 years ago and productions have been moved out here for years. I now live in Worcester and many residents will say they have seen many famous actors out here.
I don't mean to diminish anything you shared here because it's great content -- but you are beautiful!
I will move there with my kids next year, before that i didn't visit to come here yet as Covid-19. So the video clip is very useful for me. Looking forward to have more information about Boston. Thank you.
You're welcome! I'm glad that this video was helpful!
Hi Mon Yeung, I live in Boston and am in real estate, in case you need an agent when you move
Mabuhay! Been living here for 2 years. Originally from Az. Love it here. Thanks for sharing this video
Thank you for watching!
I remember when the bridge behind you -- in your still-photo opening -- was still working.
Hello From Boston! Actually Chelsea. Kamusta na po? God Bless.
Hello! I'm doing well thank you!
You’re definitely going to have to visit Quincey. Apart from a couple of restaurants, there is Sure Pinoy Food Mart. Have you heard of it?
Yes I have recently! It's actually pretty good!
Thank you for your videos about Boston! I'm coming to visit soon and I'm wondering if you have any recommendations on what I should bring in terms of coats and clothes for early February weather?
Be prepared for the cold. Its started to snow a bit and it can go into March. It may not show while there but layers are important
Have you visited the wax museum? I didnt get to see that. I loved the train ride to wonderland. Big indoor market. Not sure of they still have it. Years ago they had sand castle making in boston some where but I cannot remember where i saw the amazing sculpture people made.
No I haven't but I will look into it!
Thanks for addressing the accent thing. If I have one more person say, “pahk yah cah in hahvad yard,” when I say I’m from Boston... I’ll slap them. (Also, funny I loved to california from Boston)
Of course! Always love breaking stereotypes and being honest with viewers
Personally, I hate using lotion. I hate any greasy, slippery feeling on my hands and seeing residue on anything I touch. To lessen the need to use lotion, I always have thin fleece gloves for anytime I'm outside, even if it's not particularly cold. Under 50 degrees.

I'm wearing underwear + jeans, t-shirt + down jacket, a knit hat. It's 15F today. No need for layers. If you live in Boston long enough you will get used to the cold. Or probably my body fat keeps me warm.
Charlestown also , we have the thick Boston accent 😁
Glad to hear there's some fellow realest accent havers still in C-Town☘🤜💥🤛🍀!

Yeah, it's really walkable those three months of the year when it's not bitter cold freezing.😁
That is a very fair point! The cold hits you differently!
@@HadelLynnLeyco Summers are glorious, though. Not as hot or humid as NYC or DC, and the town empties out which is great.

Neither. It's moderate. Summers are short but beautiful.
A drop of fingernail glue in small fingertip cracks is safe and seals it for several days.
Take a year and run the Boston Marathon for charity. I did in 2000. You'll be glad you did.
Bostonia Condita 1630 Welcome to our elegant city. The subway system is the first in the country 1897 Also Boston Police department first in the country1630. And its Lobstah not Lobster and Chowdah not Chowder best seafood anywhere from cold New England Waters
Am I the only one having audio problems on this video?
Good content--I just had to turn on captions.
WOW!
You forget the ferries.
Facts, I’ve yet to meet a person in Boston with a Boston accent 😅😂
Filipino moving to Boston-- great informative video! Any news on the Filipino food front there? Or is it still a desert?
All I know is that in Quincy there is a small Filipino mart. Unfortunately the restaurant there closed down as well. There is also one in Somerville but that looks a tad pricey so I haven't tried it yet.
Informative , I’m
Not Philippines but would love to try your food 🥘, can you tell us more about the rents and prices etc , your apartment looks nice bright and spacious
I will be talking about rent and prices in my next video so stay tuned!
Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I just released a new video about this topic, so please feel free to watch it on my channel!
I feel kinda bad for you because of covid you don't get the full Boston experience there's always things to do and so many free events in the summer the pride parade the Puerto rican festival clubs they do Shakespeare in the park for free in the commons every summer the firework show from the Boston esplanade i can go on but you get what I'm saying
Hopefully I can stay around long enough to enjoy those activities!
Boston has a lot of one way streets.
Yes I noticed that too!
The reason you don't hear the accent as much is because most of the working class neighborhoods have gone through gentrification. They have mostly entirely new populations
Looking for the best state to raise a family and Boston Massachusetts came as number 1. My question is how diverse is it?
I would say Boston has very great schools! In terms of diversity, I still am used to being the only Filipino in the room and it can still be considered relatively white depending on where you are. From my experience, it tends to be closer to the universities that there are more diverse populations as well as East Boston.
Try Shaw's, behind Lord & Taylor, for Asian foods.
And C-Mart.
Thanks for the recommendations! I hope to do an updated video in the future about more places and things I've learned about Boston!
@@HadelLynnLeyco There were two C-Marts -- one in downtown Chinatown, and one across the highway in the South End. The latter is apparently being replaced with high-rise expensive housing. They had significant sections of various Asian foods. I believe the one in Chinatown does the same, but haven't been there in some time.
There is also "Ming's" in the S. End, but that is most likely Chinese-focused.
Thanks for letting me know! I'll look into those
Omg you moved here from San Diego???? Guuuurl I wanna move to San Diego, I am very done with the winters in Boston it's so depressing lol. Moving to FL soon 😍😍😍
Congrats on moving to FL! As a San Diegan, I was excited to move out here because snow is non-existent haha.
Wear gloves and you hands will never be dry

I for sure feel a lot safer being around Boston than in NYC. In terms of Asian attacks, I personally haven't experienced any and the amount I've been hearing about is very small. It really depends on what your job is
It’s an evolving city . I film the city on my channel .
I just moved to Boston! If you have any tips on making friends let me know !
I'm currently still trying to figure that out but I have been a big fan of Meetup that can be a great first start!
@@HadelLynnLeyco I’m going to have to try that! Thank you!
For a girl bars and high heels. Back Bay bars especially, Bell In Hand is a good one. Brighton as well
Where do you shop? Groceries? Household supplies?
It varies. It can range from Target, Star Market, farmers market, Trader Joe's and H mart based on my needs
@@HadelLynnLeyco Thank you.
@@HadelLynnLeyco My cousin is moving there soon and we are trying to learn everything. Keep the videos coming! LoL
no jollibee? oh no.. I am here for 3 weeks..can we collab for lunch or dinner? Im from california too
How about the people? Is commonly said that people in Boston are rude, and cold to talk to
Luckily I have not had that issue here in Boston! I hope it stays that way 😊
TH-camrs in Boston that want to get together and film in the city ?
Dis you have difficult time making friends out there? Planning to get a job out there in the future.
I would say when it was a little tough due to COVID. I work where half the time I'm in the office and half the time I'm not so I didn't get as much interaction. I feel like with things reopening there's more chances to meet people
Make friends with the bartenders and servers FIRST. Then they will vouch for you, know where all the good parties are after 2am. TIP HEAVY, they make shit for wages. Allston Comm Ave and Harvard Ave bars, Middle East, and Brighton. All T accesible plus good dive bars everywhere.
Boston has five million unwritten social rules. You fuck up the least little bit ppl look at you like youre a psycho. People take a while to get to know you, trust is Huge up there. Think Goodfellas, you want people to say youre a good shit. Get ready for sarcastic smartasses give it right back to em
moving tip dont pay for the T the employees dont care tbh
You moved from San Diego to Boston? You should check your head. The Doctors here are pretty good. They will know what's wrong with you!
