I love Chicago. It has so much to offer. It is a vibrant, beautiful city with so much culture and history and different groups of people and attractions and a fantastic public transportation system. And, of course, I love the Cubs. And the pizza! And Italian beef sandwiches! ❤️

It really is a melting pot. It's what this country is supposed to be about. How lucky you are to live there!
