Itineraries are a great way to know where we went, but I think videos are a better way to get to know the people behind these itineraries. Although we may travel on the same trip, see the same sights, eat the same food, and laugh at the same jokes, what is memorable to one person might be completely different to the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of SYDE Road&#8217;s goal is to allow us to see a trip from multiple angles, different authors, and different photographers. With this in mind,&nbsp;Angelo and I made not one, but <strong>TWO<\/strong> video summaries of our road trip from Toronto to&nbsp;Chicago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a fun challenge to see what kind of videos we could come up with at the end of the trip. &nbsp;Armed with a couple dozen 1-minute footage clips, we each cobbled two different narratives for you to enjoy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"#video-1\">Dancing around Chicago&#8217;s backdrop<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#video-2\">What we actually do as tourists<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for more of our experience around Chicago?
