Took the iconic Chicago ‘L’ (short for elevated) train to get to town today to first meet up with my ex-colleague before doing more sightseeing. The oldest sections of the ‘L’ started in 1892, so that explains why they’re not willing to give up the wooden boardwalk feel to the lines! We arrived at the...

Greetings From Chicago!
It’s my first time in Chicago and the main reason why I decided to go there was because I thought that it’s airport is the best to reach my aunt’s place in Wisconsin. However, I didn’t mind it because the last time I’ve ever been around Chicago was merely the airport. Once again, I booked...
