Truth be told , this is the best Chicago series I have seen on YouTube considering I am a native myself. Born and raised in the hood. Keep up the great work Luis ✌️.
From the U.K. but have family that lived in Chicago suburb of Aurora for 20 years ,I’ve been over 3 times in 1992 ,95 and 98 each time we went to the city and I loved it .
Awesome video here. I’d like to check these places out, never been to any.
you're so local
I would love to visit one day especially in winter ❄️🥶 I know I know lol 😆 but I love winter 🥶❄️
Yes, it is expensive, but it cost a lot less than Los Angeles, believe me Luis.
I was thinking of going thanksgiving weeks is that a bad time to visit?
Wow man! Thanks for this guide . Will be traveling to Chicago Next week for the first time and have been looking into your videos ! Btw. Your gf or co host looks just like Twaydabae lol another YouTuber . Keep it up guys ! Thanks
I saw this place, but I didn't go in
One additional free place to go in Chicago has to be the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts & Culture (NMPRAC), the only Puerto Rican museum outside of the Caribbean island. Opens Tuesdays through Saturdays. Also features a gift shop to support the smallish museum that's inside an historic two-floor house (sadly I don't remember the name) in Humboldt Park. Worthy of a visit.
Noel miller?
As a native some places I knew about, some I didn't- they're also great ideas for dates! The building that Lagunitas brewery is in used to be occupied by Ryerson Steel factory, not crazy about the brewery itself but I do like their cozy sitting areas. If you plan on visiting the Mexican Fine Arts museum, parking is limited, you'll have better luck taking an UBER. I'll need to stop in some of these spots and enjoy my city, good to see somebody from Chi-town on YouTube, good luck with your channel!#Subscribed
@Ronald Ronquillo…You are so right, I'm native born Chicagoan and Luis is amazing!! We're coming home this March and I'm making a ton of notes. Thank you Luis and your lovely girlfriend!!!
Love the videos! Keep them coming! Maybe a little more info on the locations of some of the sights you are showing. Love it!
I want a part 2
I’ve been bingeing all of your Chicago vids. As a Chicagoan, I can’t believe how many things I wasn’t aware of. Anytime out of town guests ask me for travel tips, sending them to your vids is a no-brainer. Great resources!
Great video! Iam from chicago , but live in vegas now! I want to visit the brewery and the mexican museum when we visit next month! Cant wait! Good job!
The Oriental Institute is one of the least known but most impressive museums in the city and it's totally free. There are exhibits from prehistory, Babylonia, and Egypt.
I’ll add a 12th. The Oriental Institute
I am from the European Union, Romania, I have and I want to say that I like American cities the most, in fact, all of America, you have everything you need, here the relief forms are magnificent
I greatly appreciate your videos! My husband and I plan to move to Chicago, were nervous but your videos really help sooth us by educating us on Chicago!
Great videos man
Hi Luis! I simply love your videos and suggestions! Travelling to Chicago this coming july, which is for u an ideal area to stay? We are a family of 5 from Argentina. Thank u!!!!!
awesome guide! are you available for hire? if so how much? serious request
Really love your tone and passion for Chicago. Been here from L.A for 3 years and planning on doing your recommendations once things are back open. Thanks. Love your channel.
I love your channel Luis. I was born and raised in Little Village. I live in Florida now. What’s your nationality?
Awesome.But I am worrying if they works at this pandemic.I am at Chicago right now 😌😌😌
are all these places still open during the pandemic?! I'll be visiting on February.
Nice video! I live in Machesney Park, IL. I have spent a lot of time wandering the city exploring. About 5 years ago, I even joined the Chicago Architecture Foundation. For the last 10 years, about every few months, I give city tours for guest of the Company that I work at. Since a lot of them are from foreign countries, the language barrier can be difficult and lead to some funny stories. These are some other free places: The French Market at Ogilvie Transportation Center, Walk through area Chinatown, Money Museum at Federal Reserve Bank, The Chicago Temple (First United Methodist Church of Chicago), Bahai Temple, Union Station, Marshalls Fields Stained Glass Collection in the Pedway, The Pedway (good if it is cold or raining outside), OZ park. Also do not forget Grant Park With Buckingham Fountain, Agora and Queen's Landing.
I go to LUC and I have made the 40 minute trip to Harold Washington Library just to study in that Winter Garden! Absolutely stunning
I LOVE Chicago!
Terrific video. I wish I knew how you got the girlfriend for free, I always pay for mine 😓
in my backyard! love it!
Love your videos Luis!
