But back to the topic, I like New York City but I love Chicago. The pace is not as fast as New York City (which I like), cleaner than NYC (comparable with Singapore). When u walk along the streets at night, u dun feel as nervous and scared as u are in NYC.
They have beautiful skyline and nice people. But one thing bad is the tax is super high! 10% of the total receipt sale!! So gotta think before spending.. Ok.. I think I really owe u peeps the photos for ages..
Presenting to u..
