Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
We live in a quiet residential street close to public transportation. Our children are 25 and 16 years old. We also have a 30 year old daughter who may or may not travel with us.
Chicago is an amazing city, with great museums, shopping, incredible cultural diversity, beautiful buildings, a fantastic lake front with great sailing and fishing and an incredible arts community. Chicago is one of America's most picturesque cities, with its beloved skyline curving along the bright blue green waters of Lake Michigan, its hyper-color river weaving its way beside some of America's most iconic buildings, its train yards bustling with commerce and history, and its world-famous theater and shopping and dining. While you're here, you will have access to world-class museums of art and science, miles of sandy beaches, huge parks and public art, and perhaps the finest collection of modern architecture in the world.
Great places to visit include the Sears Tower, Brookfield Zoo, Chicago Bears, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Art Institute of Chicago, Michigan Avenue, Adler Planetarium, The Field Museum, Hancock Observatory, Chicago Trolleys, Millenium Park, Museum of Contemporary Art, Ravinia Festival, Shedd Acquarium.
