    Denver is my dream place to live! Currently 17, turning 18 years old soon as I'm writing this! I'd love nothing more than to escape the humidity and heat of Texas and live in a place surrounded by mountains, national parks, and world class ski resorts! I'll try my best to work as hard as I can to make my dream a reality! GO DENVER!

      I hope you make it here, Braxton! I’ve lived in a lot of places over the years, but Denver is my favorite and a place I love to call home. I firmly believe you can plan your life to get to where you want to be if you work hard at it, and I hope you make it here!

      @@davechung Aw, thanks for responding to me, and so soon after I wrote a comment, dude! I checked out some more of your videos and you seem like a really great guy who really goes into detail about what life in Denver is like, and I really respected you for being honest in one of your videos about the stuff people usually don't mention, like the cracked windshields in winter. So refreshing to be able to evaluate the good and bad in a video and consider them both constructively. You've definitely earned a subscriber from me!

    Dave!
    I'm going on my first ever vacation with a significant other only. Without the trail of Asian family.
    So happy I found your channel just in time. I have 1 week to binge watch and research Denver. But I love your take. Very thorough and anticipated questions and commentary.
    After 30 years of friendship. Me and my long time bro became a couple. All the guys+me have been friends since middle school. I was always their wingman save never did anyone think this would have happened with any of the dudes. We've been together for 2+ years and this will be my 41st birthday getaway. Kids & pups will be at home.
    I wish you & your wife were our actual friends so we could thank you in person for all your knowledge. I'm binge watching the rest of these and taking notes before our trip on the 10th. This was perfect cuz we're only stay for 3 days.
    I'm a tomboy sci Fi & comic, nerd, ABC Chinese, art lover & work as graphic designer. I love dogs & all animals. Mainly going as a form of physical/mental therapy for my struggles with fibromyalgia. Brian is Lao/Thai & is obsessed with all things paranormal + horror. In fact we watch a scary movie every night as we eat dinner & before bed. He is a major foodie but doesn't eat seafood or enjoy fruits/veggies. Also loves anything spicy. Loves trying new things. And it's athletic, morning person who enjoys coffee and the outdoors. Though he is quite the introvert and a bit shy compared to me who suffers from anxiety yet is willing to help a stranger or go the extra mile. Must be because I'm a native Texan.
    We are both GenZ and looking forward to finally taking a vacation after the long list of traumatic events and emotional year. Looking for the brass tacks and cliff notes of Denver. It's kismet that YT recommended you and empath gravitation helped me trust in the one click.
    Thank you for this video & all the rest! It's a great POV for a person who is planning our life to see if it's somewhere we could move to as well. Feel like kindred souls just seeing the stuff you recommended with no fluff!
    Big thanks!

      @davechung  Год назад +1

      Awesome! I hope you have a great time at the game! If you really want to be in the mix with a city feel (and all that comes with that, good and bad 😀), you could stay around Union Station to have easy walking access to a lot of stuff. If you want to be a little further out, but still a quick ride to the game, RiNo and Lower Highlands (LoHi) are worth looking at too!

There was a problem with homeless people doing drugs under Union Station (near the bus area), but there was a big effort by the city to clean it up. I'm by Union Station all the time at night when I park for Nuggets games, and I think it feels much safer than it did a few months back.
