      I've been there a few times. The most recent time I went was in March, and ever since, I've been binging Chicago apartment tours and vlogs and stuff cause I want to move there soooo bad. I have never been in a city as beautiful. I've never been somewhere and cried when I had to leave like I did with Chicago. I'm only 15, but I plan on moving there in my early twenties and I'm gonna save up a lot lmao. Like it's serious, if I'm not living in Chicago, what's even the point? I sound like such a silly tourist but I felt such a sense of home when I went and I have some relatives there so it isn't fully unjustified.

    Allison, I am a long time subscriber and am ecstatic that you visited my hometown. My husband and I moved to TX about 15 years ago and unfortunately we haven’t been home since. Your trip to Chicago made us homesick. Lol You did a fabulous job showcasing all our fav places. The science museum, which is in the neighborhood we grew up in. It was one of our favorite places as kids to visit and it became a frequently visited place when we had kids…. Lincoln park…so many fun memories there. The food, shopping. It was as if I guided you through all our favorite places. Thank you so much for sharing this special trip. We may have to go home next year.

    I was so excited for this video! I live in the suburbs, but both of our adult kids lived in Lincoln Park. Our daughter moved to Dallas, but our son now lives downtown close to where you stayed! He is able to walk to his office from his beautiful sky rise. You went to all of my favorite spots. Even though we live so close to Chicago, we don't visit nearly enough. You've inspired me to do a weekend trip soon and stay at The London House. It looks amazing! I love all your vlogs so much, but this one felt like home!!!💕

    What an amazing travel vlog Alison! We went to Chicago just for the day at the beginning of November and it was so beautiful. I can't wait to go back and experience more of the city and perhaps stay at the hotel you stayed at, it looked like a wonderful trip - thank you for sharing and for all the great ideas of things to do and places to go! Xx
