Last year, we stayed in Brooklyn and rode bikes around New York City for a week. We had no car. It was awesome.
I want to do a similar thing in Chicago this year. What are your vacation ideas? Not so much "the dream vacation that I want to do someday but can't", what do you want that you might do soon?

Switzerland, Norway, Italy, England, Scotland, New Zealand. Mostly Switzerland.

I feel like it would do wonders for my state of mind to go see the natural beauty the world has to offer.

I live just over the border from Switzerland and I can promise you, the vast majority of it is pretty flat and boring, and the price of everything is extremely off-putting after a while

That said, the two most surprising things about the Swiss is their fantastic wines and amazing coffee beans. Some of the vineyards near Geneva have been around since the Romans

The internet lied to me, I thought there would be fields and waterfalls, haha. The cost is indeed off-putting, I'm many many years off being able to afford the other places let alone Switzerland.

Colour me surprised about the coffee and wine though, I'll have to stick those on my bucket list.
