I’m like 4 restaurants in and you’ve already earned a Super Thanks. I’m now psyched to visit! Random question for you: I’m mainly interested in getting a feel for the culture and social climates in the state. What are a couple cities/towns you’d recommend visiting? (Anywhere in CO, distance isn’t an issue.)
@davechung Жыл бұрын
Thank you so much, AN! Such a great question. I think many people would immediately say Boulder and Colorado Springs, just because they’re so different on the social climate front (and they are!). Outside of the ski towns, it might also be interesting for you to check out some towns that people road trip to, like Steamboat Springs and Telluride to see if that type of getaway fits your lifestyle. You probably saw that a lot of the restaurants in this video are in Aurora, which is the most diverse city in Colorado.

Bookmarked this video and subscribing for more read-up's for a January trip to Fort Collins. Would you happen to have another video on weather tips from someone coming from Hawaii? My son goes to school in Fort Collins and this is my first time visiting Denver/FC in January. Mahalo! Our flight will touch down late morning, your recommendation of one of the Korea hotpot places sounds very promising.
@davechung Жыл бұрын
Awesome! It’ll be a very big weather and altitude change for sure. I don’t have one specific to Hawaii visitors, but I do have a lot of videos for “Things to know before visiting Denver” and “6 big mistakes people make when visiting Denver for the first time” that I think will help a lot! I’d consider taking the first day a little easy to give yourself a little time to adjust to the altitude (big difference), but I really hope you have a great time here!

Hey Dave! There is a new place down in Highlands Ranch near Colorado/Highlands Ranch Parkway and University. It is called Crepes and Dreams and has a REALLY cool owner with a fascinating story. If you would be willing to check it out, I will be happy to introduce you. Crepes and Dreams. Delicious and I am excited to watch it flourish.
