Making Chicago Home
http://www.makingchicagohome.com
If Home is where the Heart is, then our Home was in Chicago long before we even saw the city for the first time.
Before we knew what Chicago had to offer and before meeting each other, Ileana and myself were already dedicated to exploring the intimate side of Chicago. Not willing to settle for the paradoxical lonely existence in a city that is already home to almost three million people, or to only befriend a small group of people that eventually become the only group of people we hang out with, we decided to start this blog to discover how one can make Chicago and its diverse residents, Home.
Forget being bored and lonely in such a huge city. Welcome to intimate Chicago living. Welcome home.
