Champaign

I didn’t choose the Champaign life; the Champaign life chose me! Sure, it’s a world away from Chicago, but that’s part of its charm. There’s a unique culture here that’s all its own—not just a mini Chicago. And don’t worry, I’ve discovered some favorite spots that truly capture the essence of good ol' Champaign.
