My Chicago Story
On a Monday morning I flew from San Francisco to Chicago. The flight was 4 hours. Arrived in Chicago I took the train to the city. I ate pasta for lunch at Vapiano and then I checked out the city. I decided to buy a ticket for a Hopp on Hopp off tour, cause I didn’t have a lot of time to see the city, and this was the fastest way to explore everything that Chicago hast to offer. In the evening I took the train to my hostmum’s cousins home. She offered me to stay in her house, which was really nice of her. When I got out of the train it was raining, and I came to her house wet. She welcomed me so nicely. We talked about 2 hours and then she showed me my room. Her profession is a Real Estate Broker. She told me some interesting things about her job. She has two adorable kids and an Au Pair from Costa Rica. On the next day I ate breakfast with the kids and their Au Pair. After that I took the train to the city.
