Fenway Park
@lauradolcitravels
Whether you are a baseball fan or not, a visit to the Fenway Park is a must. The Fenway Park is the home of the beloved Red Sox, and is the oldest stadium in the Major League Baseball. One of the best things about attending a baseball game, should you have time or be able to, is singing "Sweet Caroline" at the top of your lungs and sharing that with 37,000+ people. You can get a guided ballpark tour, which I linked in this guide. Make sure to book your tickets asap as it quickly sells out!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi there! My name is Laura Dolci and I am a travel blogger and travel content creator (Laura Dolci Travels). I've grown up traveling and moving around often, and due to that, I have several places I call home. Here is my story and all the places I am an expert in.☺️👇 I am originally from the beautiful city of Turin, Italy. During my years of growing up in Italy, I frequently visited Rome for family purposes, and the Liguria region for the summer. At the end of my 2nd Grade, I moved to Modena, Italy, and lived there for a few years. After my years in Modena, my family and I moved to the state of Maine and began our American adventures. Maine is a large state, but one that is quick to get to know. I can help with several locations, one being the gorgeous city of Portland. After some years in Maine, I moved to Boston for university - one of my favorite cities ever. During my time here, I've visited every corner there is and I'm ready to share everything about it. My last home is my current one: Granada, Spain. Similarly to Boston, I have walked this city an endless amount of time and know every corner. I've traveled throughout many Andalusian cities and towns and can offer my expertise on them as well. If you're coming to Andalusia, I'm your girl! A reason why I became a travel blogger is my passion for helping fellow travelers and travel lovers in having the best and most authentic experiences abroad. My specialty is in Hidden Gems, Gluten Free Restaurants, and De-Influencing - meaning I will protect you from touristy traps (if you want me to 😉). Having lived in so many different places, I have so many local insights and knowledge to offer - and I can't wait to share it all with you. On a final note, I have two 2 bonus destinations I can help with: Florence and Cinque Terre.
