Dear Life

Snaps from one of the things I was most excited to do in Chicago, visiting Willis Tower.....🏙️

I’ve known for years that Fazlur Rahman Khan, a Bangladeshi-American engineer, was the genius behind the original Sears Tower.... So standing there in person felt a little extra special....

One of those moments that makes you feel proud and amazed at the same time. 🇧🇩🤍

The day was spent walking around downtown and exploring its attractions....

Watching Argentina play today brought back one of my favorite memories...... 🥰🥰

In 2024, I had the chance to watch Argentina’s Copa América quarterfinal match from the stadium.... The atmosphere, the chants, the sea of blue and white, and seeing everything happen right in front of my eyes is something I’ll never forget... ☺️☺️

Today, I’m watching from the living room with family, and that’s special in its own way....
But some moments only happen once, and being there that day will always be one of those lifetime experiences I’ll carry with me forever.... 🇦🇷⚽💙

Started the day a little late.., but we knew exactly where we wanted to go first… food.......... 😂

So we headed to Devon Avenue, where it felt like we had somehow landed back in a deshi neighborhood....
So many halal options.., familiar faces.., and familiar vibes everywhere 🥰

Spent the afternoon trying some famous spots and exploring the area before heading to Des Plaines to meet a friend.... ☺️

And because apparently we don’t know how to end a day early, we finished the night exploring downtown Chicago at midnight 🌃

That’s how we wrapped up Day 2 in Chicago 😇😇

🌸 See you in the next post for Day 3 ✌️✌️

Chinatown strolls, peaceful moments at Ping Tom Memorial Park, and our first taste at the famous Molly Tea Cafe 🍵✨

The first day set the tone for an unforgettable trip.. 🥰

And since one post could never do Chicago justice.., I’ll be sharing our entire stay day by day....❤️

Stay tuned for Day 2! ✌️✌️
