Postcard from Chicago

“Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men’s blood.” — Daniel Burnham

It’s true what they say, Chicago is filled with genuine friendliness and polite straightforwardness. It’s a different city. Its a place where urban grit is intertwined with neighborly atmosphere. Here, street credit is made from winning a game of curling or best-out-of-three in table fussball. It’s my kind of city.

I know, I know. the locals swear on the deep dish pizza. But not me. I’m having pastry that reminds me of home, bar food at the underground tiki bar, and American-inspired New Nordic. My cravings for tree-bark and toasted ants are finally met.

My time in the Midwest does not end here.

Sincerely,

Christoffer
