On housing and hospitality….

Embedded Travel

Destination Inspiration

Chicago grabs you. People come to this city saying to themselves, “They don’t call it the Second City fer nothin’, HA! Third coast, right?” But she’s not bothered. She opens her arms and smiles. The wise cracks are silenced; the tourist is humbled. But we don’t want you humbled! We want you HUNGRY – for flavors and experiences and memories and snapshots the mind’s eye can’t un-see (and you’ll want it that way).

What’s so great about old-fashioned housing shares?

Remember the first time someone said, “Let me show you to your room”? Were you tired? Anxious? Eager to hit the streets? Bursting with joy? Maybe you were nursing a headache. Maybe the occasion wasn’t a happy one. You needed a clean bed and a solid door. For some, a generic hotel room is the only way to go. For my travelers, the evidence of personal effects and the presence of other people is grounding.
