During her four months at MU, Mikhaila spent her weekends traveling to different cities on the East Coast. She visited New York City, Washington D.C, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and also spent time in New Jersey.
Since Maria has family in Puerto Rico, living in Boston provided great opportunities to visit the island more often, which she did for various Thanksgivings and even got to bring friends with her during her sophomore year spring break.
Depending on her class schedule or long weekends, she also could make short trips to New York City, Connecticut, Las Vegas, and also Miami, where her younger sister was studying.
