What images come to your mind when you think of Detroit?

I recently explored Detroit for the first time this January 2018.

Detroit had been on my bucket list for a while… and I had heard a lot of things.

I had no clue what to expect.

But no one prepared me for Detroit to be like this.

DETROIT IS FUCKING GORGEOUS.

I never knew that Detroit had such a plethora of stunning historical buildings to explore!

They used to call Detroit the “Paris of the West” for its architecture and now I know why.

I immediately fell in love with the strong city vibes, met so many cool and kind people, and really enjoyed learning about the legendary Detroit history.

The city is rich in history, with a comeback grind and energy that not many places can compete with.

Is this what you thought of when you pictured Detroit?

I recommend that you check the city out for yourself, and let me know what you think!

Full Transparency: I partnered with Visit Detroit for my weekend in the city; they sponsored my hotel stay, museum passes, and one lunch I had with them— I covered everything else.

I reached out to them because I had been wanting to explore Detroit for a while, I’m on a mission to get to all 50 States, and since I’m moving to London I wanted to get there sooner than later! The opinions I have expressed are completely my own; I love you, I love traveling, and I would never waste your precious time bullshitting and recommending something I didn’t fully love or believe in.
