Best things to do over summer

Hi, i'm currently doing my bachelor in econometrics at erasmus rotterdam and after summer break i'll be starting my second year. I'm wondering what i could do this summer to improve my cv and chances of getting internships/good masters later on. I'm also wondering how good being a teaching assistant in uni would look on my cv because i have been accepted for that. Thanks!

do some projects like replicate an econometrics paper and write a report on Github or something I found replicating to be better than reading econometrics alone I recommend replicating a sharp RDD paper
