Oh Chicago.
I love you so much, yet you’re such a rollercoaster when it comes to these things.
Big points for the lakefront, the biking culture, public transportation, and lots of daily walking.
Minus points for high rates of depression and other associated problems.
I need to find a long lost rich relative who wants to fund my winters in Puerto Vallerta so I can summer here, winter there like the elite.
