🇺🇸【Chicago Travel Guide】What is Chicago really like?
In this video, I share my first-ever trip to Chicago, including iconic attractions, local food, cafés, public transportation, and the total cost of a 4-day trip.
Chicago is often known for its stunning architecture, deep-dish pizza, and vibrant city atmosphere, but many travelers also wonder about the cost of visiting, safety, and whether it's easy to explore without a car.
