#GustoNation, it's time for a new chapter...

[@Ginger30161]

You ever thought of doing College campus tours?

[@duxtoilet]

Hello from New Zealand Luis. I have to admit that I absolutely love Chicago, particularly that area which encompasses Lake Shore Drive, Grant Park, Millennium Park, Michigan Avenue and the Riverside Walk. I found your videos extremely entertaining and, for me personally, they served as a shelter from the shit of everyday life. I felt as though I was transported to another part of the world that I find extremely appealing notwithstanding the cold winters. Even in winter time, Chicago has a certain appeal and charm. Thank you for your Chicago videos. Best wishes for the future and I hope you enjoy your time in NYC.

[@danielhoward6558]

Man, going to miss your in depth history sections but if your heart isn't in it and you feel that it's time to focus on telling more of our own story while working on your cinematography I wish you much success! When I fist moved to Chicago you became my unofficial tour guide and I learned so much about my own neighborhood as well as the surrounding areas. I learned so much from your channel I'm even able to make recommendations to people who have lived in the city years longer than I have! I'm excited for the new direction you're taking and I'm looking forward to learning more about the man behind the best city guides on youtube. Let's get it!

[@talleyrand9442]

It's not that his heart's not in it. It's that the audience hasn't cared to learn about it.

[@chaselathrop7189]

Your videos are what convinced me to move to Chicago all the way from Georgia. I just moved into my Lakeview apartment yesterday. Thank you

[@mosesmbemba3908]

do you regret your decision? or are you happy with the move?

[@chaselathrop7189]

⁠@@mosesmbemba3908 absolutely I was happy with the move. It was a big adjustment but the neighborhood is amazing and Chicago as a whole is great place to live

[@bigworm3886]

You scared me man. I thought you were calling it a day. Honestly your videos were part of the reason I moved from NYC to Chicago.

[@vaishx]

Bro you got me worried for a sec! I thought you were leaving Chicago for good or something. I 100% understand why you wanna take the new direction with the channel. I think you’re definitely one of the better ones when it comes to explaining history though I will be real. Also I did notice more views on your Chicago videos than others but that could just be because that’s how some people (including me lol) found and subscribed to your channel. At the end do what people love, BUT keep traveling everywhere cuz that’s what YOU want to do. I think many KZbinrs fail to find the balance whereas you currently are doing well at that. Listen to your heart and go where you feel is best! Good luck with the channel my man 👍🏾

[@coldkittn]

This was great. Your channel helped me with my move to Chicago. I'm looking forward to the new content you put out.

[@YonatanShamgar]

Same

[@BellaBellaElla]

I was so worried you were gonna give us really bad news! :) Very clever (albeit frustrating) way to get us to watch the entire video this time! I for one LOVE the history portions, hopefully you'll still include at least a little bit of it here and there even if toa lesser degree. Chicago is my favorite city in the world, and I am so glad we have you two here, as people who clearly love this amazing city too!!

[@Forevermiraj]

Loved your content about Chicago and all its history. I’m excited for your new direction of this channel & I will continue to enjoy your KZbin journey 🎉

[@LuisGustoComedy]

Appreciate it 😎

[@lizap3262]

I moved from Chicago 14 years ago and recently have become very nostalgic since covid has kept me away for years. Recently I found your videos and they have made me so happy. I definitely love the in-depth history, but as a Chicago history buff, a lot of it I already knew anyhow. I think whatever format you use moving forward, you are still going to find that viewers are going to learn something they didn't know and possibly be inspired to go out and do the research themselves. I will watch your videos regardless of format change and I look forward to seeing what's on the horizon. Best of luck!

[@talleyrand9442]

These are the best Chicago vlogs. Love you both.

[@parttimelarry]

Thanks for everything you do, we visited Chicago last year and this channel really helped us make the most of our trip.

[@kjoseph9051]

It was my first time in Chicago earlier this Month. I did Lincoln park, Hyde park, lakeview east etc. I appreciate your insight and dope content. 💯

[@codyconnell3311]

I have watched your videos for the past few years. Thank you for sharing your creativity and knowledge with the world, Luis! ☺️

[@lilypad342]

I truly appreciated all the hard work you put into researching the history!!! I loved learning so many new things! But whatever you guys do, I’m here for it!! Looking forward to the new chapter and more cinematic masterpieces!!! Blessings to both of you!🙏

[@VoNKoZ]

I'm planning on moving to Chicago soon and your videos have been super helpful in validating that decision. So, I'm happy you're sticking with it even in a different format.

[@katpyss]

I’ve always enjoyed all your content, and glad to hear you are taking steps to bring your channel into its next phase. Keep up the great work!

[@billyyandle1947]

Luis, love the videos! Looking forward to the next venture!!!

[@stevenm6453]

I'm from Chicago and you've been places i havent been in the city lol

[@jollyraider]

Luis your videos were so helpful for me leading up to my move to Chicago. It was a long distance move for me during the pandemic and I was pretty freaked out about it but the way you laid out the details about handling winter, apartments, and just the day to day how to live in the city prepared me like nothing else. The way you incorporated the city's history and architecture had me finessing that like button but if it wasn't paying off, do what you gotta do. Thanks man

[@shelitasears4306]

I really appreciate the channel and how the videos were laid out. Luis your videos absolutely helped me and my sis on our trip to Chicago and we are dying to go back and see more. I am a history lover and appreciated the historical gems you were dropping. But as an aspiring KZbin content creator myself, I understand the complexity of having to make engaging content and doing your passion. I thank you for creating this channel and can’t wait to see what else you have in store.

[@TBAAvenger]

Your videos have helped me learn about Chicago, and not to mention where to go, and even how to get there… thanks to your “Chicago by L” video… for what it’s worth, I love your videos. And appreciate the effort you put out there, to educate us, and show us these neighborhoods, and cities.

[@thilbert17]

Excited about the new format. Was scared you were going to say you were moving away from Chicago, glad to hear you’ll still be making videos here 😊

[@voguekisses]

Thank you for teaching us everything about Chicago! Excited to see whats next

[@rabskoo]

Great Chanel a must watch when your new to the city and are looking for interesting cool places to visit. can't wait to see more of the new format

[@MrPariso]

Can’t wait to see more of your story. You are one of the KZbinrs who inspired me to create my Chicago vlogs. Keep up the great work Luis!

[@mattjames1138]

You know how to do it! These videos are masterpieces, no lie. I’ll definitely be watching.

[@guspadilla9191]

Looking forward to the new format! keep up the Good Work!!

[@Camaral24]

Yooo LOVE the format of this video. Super engaging both visually and story-wise. Kept me interested and entertained the whole time. Excited to see more!

[@miketorres7268]

Very dope I do enjoy the live streams from the loop.

[@paulhavelka4403]

LOVE you guys! No matter the format! Cheers!

[@dylanisblue]

Thank you for all the videos you've made about the neighborhoods of Chicago. As someone who lives here now but didn't grow up in Chicago, I've learned an incredible amount and have loved all the recommendations. What you two have done is an amazing resource to the community, even if it isn't seen as much as we all would hope. I live up in Edgewater and loved getting more insight into the community that I live in now. It's a history I probably wouldn't find anywhere else other than your channel. Because of your video on Pilsen, I went down and explored. I talked to a really nice dude sitting next to me in a bar who told me about how Pilsen has an incredible latin punk scene history and got me into Los Crudos - a whole new amazing rabbit hole to venture down. Your videos have always told the story of a diverse Chicago, and that's something to be very proud of, because a lot of history can be lost in the sands of time. I look forward to the new direction your channel will take, and thank you for all the knowledge you have shared so far.

[@kristofferryan2902]

digging the new cinematic look..

[@LuisGustoComedy]

Thank you bro 🙏

[@kelseydorian4466]

found your channel just this year. my family is going to move to or near Chicago within the next couple of years and your content really helps it feel less intimidating and helps us have a bit more of an idea for where we want to go since Chicago has so many neighborhoods! I hope you keep creating awesome informative content like this for a long time! best travel info Channel out there!

[@carolrios2660]

Thanks for the great content! Do what makes you happy! We will still follow!

[@IchiNiSean]

Watching your videos definitely help me and my gf have the time of our lives in Chicago a couple of weeks ago. It’s a beautiful city and really appreciate all the work you do to show it off!

[@GnomeChomsky9999]

Luis, you helped me decide to give Chicago a try and move back to the Midwest. Was a great decision. Thanks!

[@ecaldwell9]

Where are you coming from?

[@konakuaiwa9286]

Hey Luis, I’m moving to Chicago in two weeks and your videos made me feel so comfortable with my decision of neighborhood. You have no idea how much help you gave me! (I landed on Logan Square)

[@LostRams]

Enjoy logan square! It's also a very nice neighborhood.

[@lunabombay]

Love it looking forward to the next videos I would love to see you guys Atlanta Georgia, or Tokyo, Japan 🗾 one day. Sending blessings and positivity towards your channel 🙌🏼

[@Smart_Think]

Great to hear your story Luis, definitely like the natural talk along with the scripted convo, love the mix up and seeing some more of your personalities! Im watching regardless of where you take the channel!

[@jeremystewart6552]

I have to say I’m gonna miss the old format you did a great job explaining things but I’m sure the new direction will be just as good or better so can’t wait to see it!

[@bradderousse3440]

I was just thinking and I remembered when you did the livestream neighborhood tours. I would normally catch them during my lunch break, I think. I'm looking forward to see the direction you take the channel. It seems like you've got a good pulse on your channel, and you aren't afraid to change things up as you see fit.

[@dgriffin5932]

Your channel was key in my first visit to Chicago in 2021. I was able to check out a few areas based on your videos. Thanks & continued growth & success of the channel!

[@autismworldtravel]

This is such a nice channel. You and your gf seem so kind and genuine. Keep up the great work, I certainly appreciate it.

[@josias.torres]

If this is the new format you’re going with for your films KEEP THEM COMING!! Great job man, definitely can’t wait to see more!

[@LuisGustoComedy]

Appreciate you bro 🇵🇷

[@mariannakump8857]

I'm looking forward to the next chapter!

[@nildaivelissesoto3723]

You should try and i cover all of the 77 neighborhoods Chicago has to offer.

[@samueltexeira2734]

Man! Thanks for all you did. I followed your channel at the beginning of the pandemic when I knew I was relocating to Chicago and it helped me fall in love with this beautiful dynamic city. I also ran into you at Valois in Hyde Park and introduced myself. So grateful for all of the teaching you've done.

[@ML-hd3md]

We found your channel after we visited Chicago this summer. Because of your channel, we plan to visit the city again next year. No matter what direction you decide to go, we look forward to seeing your next story.

[@SantosChronicles]

Have been following you for the past year. We love Lincoln Park also. Your story telling is so good. Something we are working more on our channel. You cover so much in one video. We are just waiting to run into you guys out in the wild. Good luck with your channel as you evolve more.

[@Lesliemfit]

Wow good for you!!!

[@Trickyricky293]

Brotha, loved the history aspect of the channel, but I also understand the decision. I plan to keep watching regardless. I found you awhile back before a trip to Chicago and have been watching ever since. Keep doing your thing man.

[@ecaldwell9]

Awesome Gusto! I like this new strategic plan better. Good idea. Nice to hear that we’re not loosening your cuteness. - Bronzeville

[@djdeniroatx]

Man we just came back from visiting Chicago and your videos helped us move around the city

[@englishedge1988]

Glad that you're continuing doing your channel, for a second I thought you was quitting all together. Do what makes you happy Luis! Your channel is great and I will keep watching my friend.

[@ChicagoGuyLivingLife]

I always enjoy how you integrate Chicago's history and architecture into your videos. However, I respect that all things transition and change. So, I look forward to watching your new content. Keep up the good work. Peace and blessings!

[@ElectrickSoundz]

Thanks!

[@simplelife4577]

Edgewater I love it there

[@Rosafit620]

Mr. Gusto…..change is good. Congratulations to you and Narisa. Do what you do best …I’ll always be watching and supporting. Love you both! 💕

[@xx_theartfuldodger_xx1105]

You gotta do Lincoln Square!!

[@Taylormadeehere]

I moved to Chicago 2 months ago and your videos have been so helpful learning the city and all that comes with it. Thank you for your knowledge and time

[@gelatomadman8787]

Siiiick 🔥🔥

[@bsan89]

I'm glad I met both you and your wife in person by chance when I visited Chicago. I saw so much in my weekend there thanks to your video. Can't wait to see what you do in the future. Best Wishes.

[@btfields89]

Good luck with the new direction. NGL the effort of your content is what keeps me watching. Real information vs just "influencer aesthetic vibe" shots of food and saying it tastes good.

[@drtydozn]

Damn bro! I got so much Chicago Knowledge from your channel! My friends visited last month and they were impressed I knew so much Chicago history. Lots of it was thanks to your videos! Look forward to the new stuff too tho!

[@nflegal49]

Good luck with the new direction you're taking. You have the best videos about Chicago. BTW, your walking tour videos helped me survive the pandemic lockdown. 🙂💯

[@kaylar.5018]

Your videos just got my partner and I through a Chicago trip last week! We loved walking and staying in the Lincoln Park area. ❤

[@essentialcassie]

I’m Oak Park! Right down the street and every now and then I gotta grab my coffee from the best eateries in Lincoln Park.

[@hunnibunniyadi]

I must say, as a fellow Chicagoan that loves your videos, I actually enjoyed the history sections. A lot of it gets forgotten. However I understand the need for change and to appeal to the general crowd. Glad you’re not leaving YT, looking forward to the new content. 😊

[@fredricardo3272]

Luis, I’ve been part of your channel since the early days. I moved to Chicago 11 years ago, but your channel taught me a lot about the city’s history. You know your metrics so I understand your decision and look forward to the new format.

[@KevinK4411]

Luis, gotta say thank you. My wife and I wanted to take our two kids on a trip this summer to a city we’d never been before and Chicago was the first that came to mind. Your videos were instrumental in us finding cool things to do and see when we were in your great city. We appreciate you and your wife’s hard work and we always make sure to “finesse” that like button!!

[@XXCobraCommanderXX]

I like the new direction. It is smart looking at what your viewers gravitate towards. I personally liked watching the livestream walking tours. Living in another state, they were a nice escape to see what was going on in Chicago.

[@TreyMitchell]

Considering moving to chicago and your videos are so helpful

[@scottvermillion1426]

LOVE your channel! Hope the channels take it in the direction that keeps you engaged, your current audience engaged (people like me), and helps you expand your audience. Good luck!

[@coachgioo6272]

Excited to see the next chapter! 🎉 For a min I thought you were moving 😭😭

[@rebeccagarcia152]

I never really knew the history of my city Chicago. I thought it was awesome that you shared the history of our beautiful city. However I totally respect your decision. Thank you for sharing!

[@gabrielszakaly6232]

Good luck with the new format! Turned out really well in this! You should check out the Beverly/Mt. Greenwood/Morgan Park area on the SW side!

[@giovannagonzalez6247]

I thought you were announcing a move to nyc! Happy to support the new direction keep up the good work!

[@missadventure3397]

Wow, that croissant! Gotta try that on my next visit to Chicago!

[@williamadornetto2850]

It is always a joy to watch you guys. We left Chicago 17 years ago and are settled out here in Washington state, but you always remind us of how special Chicago is and will always be to our hearts. What next?-- maybe Brighton Park or something a little more Southwest. Thanks so much!!

[@geprapanut1029]

Like the change. We had to stop the vlog after you guys got boba to do a boba run lol. Miss Chicago. Fans from Vegas.

[@arhumz1573]

Best of luck, Luis!

[@JoseFlores-kl6jm]

Hey Luis I just want you to know that I respect your decision, and I have loved all your videos. I will be looking forward to the new changes your channel brings.

[@realliving7340]

Love the channel however you guys do it!!! Could you do Oaklawn, Il

[@jmleigh3]

I’m in. I think y’all make great content. I found y’all based on the Chicago videos because we are traveling there for Thanksgiving week. I will continue to watch because I enjoy travel and both the personalities as they are shown. Good luck. I would love Thanksgiving week ideas if you have any different from any other week.

[@savi7j]

Love the Chicago neighborhood guides you've been doing! you guys should go check out philly sometime :)

[@Drourecito]

I´ll miss the history bits, but ultimately it is what it is, a time consuming task where you´re not seeing the return on in while trying to make you room in this algorithm, so it´s totally understanable, keep up the good work !

[@the.alexander]

Hola Gusto! Such a good and inspirational video to me. De hecho tienes razón, nosotros tenemos una historia. Mis mejores deseos con el nuevo estilo. Saludos :)

[@simonemyheart]

Hey Luis. Found your channel just over a month ago as I was researching Chicago before a potential move, actually taking the wife to Chicago next week to see if she can see her self moving there, ive been quite a few times with work and it reminds me of Glasgow from back home in Scotland. I have learned so much of Chicago's history from your channel and got to be honest a bit sad its going to end. However, I understand with limited time and resources you have to target where the market is, so I get it. My wife's biggest fear about moving is the winter. We currently live in Tampa and have so for around 10 years, but after spending a month in the UK to visit family we both realized we missed being able to travel on foot and using public transport, so in my mind its a safe trade to swap 9 months of the year where it is too hot to do much outside (except beach and pool) for 3 months where it is freezing. Anyway keep up the good work.

[@questionresearch8721]

Up here trying to scare us. Hey happy for the change 🙂.

[@ChiSoul]

Sometimes it's necessary to change directions. As a new Chicago transplant I love your videos. I look forward to the new content. 🤟🏾🙌🏾

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Looking very nice...

[@tonebadazz50]

As a Chicago Native, you have helped in showing me around my own city. Thanks for all the videos!

[@cucumberbreezee]

I like this format a lot! Lol “just. A ton. Of ferns!!”

[@marylupapada4601]

Do enjoy your channel 😊

[@judyt.5702]

I will miss the history part of the channel. Going back for a couple of days for the Prince experience. I haven't been home in over 40 years. I can't wait. I will be watching while I am there thank you Luis so much.But I will miss the historic format though.☹️

[@legerdemain]

I loved the history and architecture, but I've got faith in y'all so I'm not worried. Looking forward to the new stuff.

[@kiaranhartnett2762]

We’d love an Andersonville, lakeview and Lincoln square tour!

[@linzeeb4]

The history and architecture were my favorite parts. Hopefully you can still instill bits and pieces of it in future videos even if it has to be less to reduce the research burden and not its own section for those not into it to skip.

[@beakay8700]

The new direction sounds great! I was worried you were going to tell us no more Chicago videos. I don’t think I’d recover from that! 😅

[@denisejenkins9353]

I have loved watching ur channel including the history of some of chicago neighborhoods...but do understand. Hope you can check out neighborhoods like West Ridge and Rogers Park. Thanks
