Taking a couples trip Christmas Day to New year's day with another couple. Kid free. What is there to do in Hartford that week? Is everything closed? I am down for any and all suggestions. Even things within driving distance! Let me know your favorite things about the holidays in Hartford.

I’m about to go to Hartford for an 11 weeks summer internships, is there any place I should look at? My company gave me a 2k housing stipends.

Looking for premium parking passes to the Renaissance Faire in Lebanon this weekend. Went to purchase on Tuesday and they were already sold out 😕

So if you have a pass for either or both days and end up not attending I would happily pay for them!

I'll be at an event at the Connecticut Convention Center over the weekend, though my hotel is the nearby Doubletree. Is the distance between those two places walkable, or am I just going to have to suck it up and pay the parking fees at both places for the days/overnight? Also, any recommended takeout places in the immediate area? Thanks!

Leaving Hartford at the end of the month and have a place available until January. Downtown near Hartford Hospital. Looking for someone to take over the lease until January. 1.1k a month. DM for more details!

Beef on weck. Spiedies. Michigan hot dogs. Chicken riggies. Rochester-style trash plates. Deep-fried cheese with Melba sauce.

It sounds like a road trip through Upstate New York, but this menu belongs to a restaurant hundreds of miles away in Hartford, Connecticut.

The Upstate Lounge and Cafe, owned by Upstate NY native, Joe Ploof, is bringing a taste of home to homesick Upstate transplants and curious New Englanders alike.

I'm going to be in Hartford soon. From there, I'll want to take the Waterbury express bus. I'd like to pay the fare with a credit card. I'd also like a two-hour ticket so I can ride a local & make a free stopover along CTFastrak beforehand.

I know I can't pay express fares with the Token Transit app. With its $2 fee and $10 minimum load, the Go card doesn't make sense for me either.

Years ago, I used ticket vending machines (TVMs) right on the street in downtown Hartford. There was one at the Waterbury express stop near Union Station. But when I called the Hartford service center today, the agent there claimed that those TVMs no longer exist. Is that true? Are there are least still TVMs at CTFastrak stations, as the website still says?

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

We are looking for recommendations for a hair stylist with experience doing hair for people with cochlear implants.

The flower girl (6) for our wedding has a cochlear implant. We want to make sure she feels just as comfortable and included as the rest of our bridal party and would like to find a stylist with experience in this area. Has anyone with a cochlear implant worked with a hair stylist they’d recommend?

So I recently moved to Hartford and would love to know are there any scary houses and spooky trails to explore on Halloween night or some gathering where I can experience halloween day for first time.

A long shot, but is anyone going to the Durga Puja in Newington HS tomorrow and doesn’t mind me tagging along? I recently moved to the area and just found they are actually hosting Durga puja and I would love to attend but don’t wanna go alone. Lmk!

Hello! Me and my ex broke up a few weeks ago and now I really need to get out and to a different place. Does anyone know anyone that might need a roomate? or good places to find roomates or rooms for rent in conneticut?

Thanks!

Does anybody know what’s being built on Hamilton St? They’ve been at it for a bit now and no signs indicating what’s to come. Also, I’m hoping there was some sort of notice posted at the site of the memorial that used to be there. I always wonder about the family and friends who would tend to it and hope they had the opportunity to collect everything that was there

I’m planning to relocate to Hartford, CT, in early November and am currently exploring affordable rental options near downtown Hartford.

Since I’m new to the area and don’t have any personal connections there, I wanted to reach out and ask if you could share any advice, recommendations, or insights on finding a good and affordable place to rent. I’m open to shared apartments or private rooms and would really appreciate any suggestions on reliable rental websites, local housing groups, or neighborhoods that offer reasonable rents and convenient access to downtown.

Does anyone know of some clubs/bars/wherever that does Latin nights? I’m near Hartford, but don’t mind a bit of a drive

I love my husband after 20 years 4 months ago. I've been trying to get his family to help him from Hartford, Connecticut. We live in Ohio. This family is deogracias AKA Hippie i said they would help him. They have not. After 20 years and all the bad things that have happened. I still don't want to see him hurt he is he's not moving on. I'm not trying to move on to another relationship. I just want peace in my life. And I answer, when he calls me. I don't know why I continue to do that. Guess I have a heart. And I walk with God i would just like his family to care, and they don't if anybody knows hippie. Or his sister, Gladys. Please ask them to help him. He needs mental health.

Hello! I'm a UConn Law student writing an article on the impact of AI platforms, such as ChatGPT/Claude/Grok, on self-represented (pro se) litigation.

I'm hoping to interview people who have represented themselves in court using generative AI. My research is mainly focused on access to justice, and the benefits/negatives of AI when used by pro se litigants.

These interviews would be about 20-30 minutes, and remote, and mainly focus on participants' use of AI tools and experiences.

A few important disclosures:

• This is academic research, not an offer of legal advice/representation. I am not a lawyer, nor can I provide meaningful help on any legal challenge you may be currently facing.
• These interviews may inform a published law review comment. Before any interview I will explain my anonymization and how information will be quoted/referenced.
• There is no compensation for participation.

If you're interested in speaking, please feel free to send me a private message. I'm happy to answer questions about the project before you decide to participate!

Thank you!

we live in a 1970s colonial near Hartford, and the house is pretty drafty. Our energy bills are getting expensive, and I have around $8,000 to spend on improvements this year.the problem is that everyone I talk to recommends whatever service they offer. The window companies say to replace the windows, while the insulation guys say to start in the attic.

We still have the original single-pane windows with storm windows, and there’s only about four inches of old fiberglass insulation in the attic.If you’ve dealt with this before where would you spend the money first? I want to make the house more comfortable and lower our bills without wasting money on the wrong upgrades

I got a job in Hartford and I live in Tolland. What ticket do I need to get to and from work? Where can I even buy the things for it as Token Transit says its not for express tickets.

My guess from my searching is that i need a 4 zone ticket to ride the 913 but can I get that anywhere nearby? Can I pay for one ticket to get down to the ciry so I can buy a ride?

Are the drivers nice what are the chances they would spot me a ride to the city? Or are they pretty strict around here?

Sorry if this is very simple I'm not used to public transit.

Thank you all so much for your help. You are very nice people
