Hi! I'm Cheraya, a Minnesota girl, and I took a year off work brewing coffee to travel around the world. I love to explore and experience new to me destinations and places that are rich in culture and history. Even though my year of travel has ended I still want to see more of the world and explore things I have not seen before. To see what I get up to, (inbetween my not so 9-5 barista job) and maybe learn along with me, join me on this crazy, exciting adventure.
Welcome to my city!!! These are some of my favs!! Have you been to any of these places before? Is there anything that I missed?
Great video Cheraya! The closest I've gotten to these places was the Mall of America when I was visited a friend for thanksgiving a long time ago. Hopefully I can go on a little food tour for myself one day. Also the skyway system seems interesting...
@@Fireflyorange 😣. That hurts a Minneapolitan. That’s not the AP- that’s Bloomington. Hahaha I’m playing with you👊. But, if you comeback- come over south side. Distinct culture...I don’t have a Minnesota accent let’s just say that haha. North side- same thing. Just as beautiful. Theo Wirth, Minneapolis Ave, Matt’s (thas a must homie), or legit any restaurant. We got the best in the country straight up.
@@discowolf25 LOL. that sounds intersting. I will definitely have to check that out as well one day. thanks for the heads up bro !
@@Fireflyorange Always my bro🤝✊
I love Mpls! Born and raised in the burbs, graduated from the U, moved to Boston then Denver and have been back since '06. There are negative people living in every part of the country that think their city or town is the worst, most dangerous place. The Twin Cities have a great quality of life. I'm glad to be back!
Thank you fo such a positive, realistic post! I love this city, there is so much it has to offer, but I am not so naive to think its danger free. Like any city just be smart! Thank you again for watching!
Can’t wait to explore
I love my city! There are some amazing restaurants here!
I plan on going to Minneapolis next year for the summer and it does seem like a beautiful place to visit and hang out at. I love Minnesota ❤
Yay! There are many beautiful places to visit!
Purple Rain baby🤘. All 32 years in this earth I’ve lived here. I dunno about the rest of the state 😂. I hate when people claim Minnesota=Minneapolis...no. Not even close. We have our own culture.
Beautiful city.
Great info! Good job.
Great video! Moving to North Loop from Michigan. So excited!!
That is so awesome!!! Welcome!! The North Loop is a pretty cool area!!
Umm next time I wanna try those donuts! That Judy Lucy I can smell from the screen and I’m glad you took us on the same tour of Minneapolis you took me on! Thanks for sharing the best parts of your beloved city!
Yes!! Those doughnuts are incredible!!! Next time you come I’ll take you to more food places!!
@@CherayaMiyoko Yes please!!!!
Thank you for sharing your situation there. It's really costed you alot of efforts. I am really planning to come for tasting that city
Of course!! Yes please come for a visit!! We have amazing places to eat!!
That burger looks sooo gooood!!
It is UHmazing!!!!!!
I’ll be visiting Minneapolis and Duluth next week. I plan on living in Minneapolis by winter of next year and I can’t wait. By the way, Great video
Thats so awesome! Welcome! Whats bringing you to Minnesota
@@CherayaMiyoko the nature that Minnesota offers lol. I live in Houston and I hate it because of the climate and I love snow, so it’s kind of a win-win situation. Plus I’m planning on having a job at the Mayo Clinic.
@@jimmacready9369 lmao come to Texas first
@@mariothomas6766 That’s so awesome!! The snow is nice until January when it gets way below freezing 🥶 but I still love it here!
Thank you!!
Thank you for watching!!
queen 💖💖💖
Thank you so much!!🥰
Excellent video and a real idea of what it’s like there in my home town. I left for California in ‘72. You are amazing too! No I am not related to anyone there with that last name.
Thank you! I love my home too!
Last time i was in Minnesota it was so cold well into the negatives i didnt get to enjoy the area but still liked it alot would love to return in summer\fall season
Yes it can get pretty cold here😂 but definitely come back!! Fall is my absolute favorite here!!
I'm amazed you could find so many positives about Minneapolis. I've lived here most my life and have come to the conclusion that I hate it... and that feeling gets stronger by the day.
Minneapolis is so huge and there are a lot of great things that it has to offer! Its more than just one event that happened in a period of time.
@@CherayaMiyoko sure but the after affects are damaging, city will never repair itself, zero chance.
@@99cooking. Well, thats your opinion.
@@CherayaMiyoko I moved from Portland, OR to MN after 30 years. I love MN. People are so nice here. Beautiful culture. Nature and parks in abundance. Breathtaking lakes. Very spiritual place.
Gone yet?
Minneapolis Minnesota is a wonderful place to live. Lots of things to do. Beautiful change of the seasons. If you don’t live here, you have no clue.
I love it here, and I totally agree! You wouldn’t really know unless you lived here!
Two thumbs up! I’m from St. Paul but I love Minneapolis as well! Unfortunately, some people in the comments wants to bring negativity into a positive video.
Those Trump trolls just believe what they here from Fox News
Thank you so much for your kind words! I haven’t explored much of St Paul, but that is going to change this summer!
I love you channel and you accent ❤️
Thank you so much! I never thought I had an accent until recently!
@@CherayaMiyoko I want to join you in your trips lol
Matts is my ultimate favorite Jucy Lucy!
Agreed! It’s the best!!!
Gotta try a Juicy Lucy and Milk Jam Creamery!
Yes! they both are amazing!
Thank you so so much for sharing! I’m planning to visit in August 🤩 and this helped a looooot
Yay! Welcome!! What’s bringing you to Minnesota? There are so many places to eat and drink here it’s incredible!!
I’m visiting one of my best friends, she just had baby boy!
@@Jerusa04 wow that’s so awesome! Tell her congratulations!!
nice video but I feel I got more food spots then scenic spots ..you made me hungry and like you I get happy about food
Thank you! There is a lot to see and eat in Minneapolis! And so many great foodie spots! I just have to share!
i’m from manitoba and i’m definetly gonna come down here and check it out! cheraya, have you ever been to winnipeg? please come check it out!!!
+Aspectgaming Hi!! Yes please check it out! I actually have been to Winnipeg, about 5 years ago! It’s actually the only Canadian city I’ve visited!
@@CherayaMiyoko that’s so cool, did you like it, i know its a pretty eh city but Manitoba as a whole has so so much to offer. Do you think you will ever go and visit again or no?
Canada is so big and there are many places I’d like to visit there! But when the borders open, maybe Thunder Bay? It’s a tad bit closer for me than Winnipeg!:)
I’ve heard people talk about Minnesota ice and Minnesota nice. Honestly, it sounds like the Seattle freeze. I’m from WA state, and I was lucky to have never been met with hostility, and I assume it’s the same over in MN. This is advice I follow when it comes to moving anywhere, really- don’t be a dick, try to experience the local culture as much as you can and be open to suggestions. Never gone wrong with that so far.
Can you do a video of what people are wearing for business casual in Minneapolis? I have a business trip there in July and want to see what women are wearing. Coming from KC, MO. I just subscribed to learn a little about the city...
Hey!! That’s exciting! I’m sure it’s super similar, to your business casual where you live. Nice dark no torn jeans, and nice blouse are perfectly acceptable!
Might be going out to Minnesota for the summer and to be honest it looks really interesting! By the way out of curiosity what is your ethnicity? I am assuming from your name and how you look that you're Japanese-Peruvian but I could be wrong haha.
It is so diverse here, you’ll never get bored! You’re part right! I’m Hawaiian Japanese and German!
@@CherayaMiyoko Oooh that is so cool! I'm also a part of a diaspora as well but I'm Cuban-American!
@@Alaskan-Armadillo that’s awesome! I love being a mix of things!
Did you ever go to Rudolphs Barbecue?
Beautiful lady that really knows her stuff :)
Awww thank you so much! Have you ever visited Minneapolis before?
@@CherayaMiyoko Late reply but we make an annual trip!
@@Cupcak3Zombi3 that’s awesome!!!
I went to visit and oh my god it was beautiful. Kind of like a Portland or Austin vibe. Love the boujie hipster energy!
Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed yourself! What was your favorite part?
Would you recommend renting a car to explore Minneapolis or is it walkable or other transit ?
I honestly have never used public transport in Minneapolis, since I have a car already. But it depends on what you want to see, if you just want to stick to one neighborhood its fine, but if you want to see more, a car would be better to get around. Lyft and Uber are popular here too, if you only need a car once or twice!
#1 thing to do before all else is realize it’s very dangerous.
#2 don’t go near the guys sleeping on the benches in the park she’s at. They likely have serious mental problems and are armed with knives. When I was a teen we used to ride our bikes down the steps at Minnehaha Park. Now you can’t go there after dark. Don’t go to any park after dark.
3) keep your head down
Firstly, thank you for watching! And to address your concerns, like all major metropolitan cities there will be some amount of crime, however in 2020 Minneapolis didn’t even make the 100 most dangerous cities list. I also don’t know anyone who would go and wake up and bother someone who is sleeping. And it’s not really fair to assume that just because someone doesn’t have a home that they have mental issues, especially after covid. And I would never recommend exploring a new, poorly lit, secluded place, alone at night.
@@CherayaMiyoko well. I’ve seen first hand, several times, innocent people walking by a park bench at that park where a homeless person was sleeping. They didn’t intentionally wake them up but the guy jumps off the bench with a knife or acting crazy. It happens a lot there. I’m just giving people a heads up because if naive people just blindly go to where you recommend without knowing the area it could be very dangerous.
@@notsofast5495 that's a lie. I live out a few blocks off minnehaha park around 45th and 44th. I grew up in the neighborhood. If I do see homeless people around they certainly aren't trying to sleep on the park benches around the entrance to the falls in the middle of the day time lying in wait for unsuspecting visitors. Who would ever do that?
If you walk like 3 blocks east down towards the Mississippi and a block into the river road you'll find a house that's been there abandoned for like 80 years. That's where the homeless go to sleep in the daytime. That or down on the river around the dog park road (which used to be called Bear @$$ road).
Why lie?
Am I ok to walk around the parks and streets on my own or do you have a large homeless population, crime? I really don't have a clue what to expect....I will be working off Minnehaha area and staying at a hotel by the airport.
The homeless population has grown in the last two years, but you should be totally fine. Things are kinda spread out in the minnehaha area, so I’d suggest a car or Uber. And if you’re staying near the airport there is the light rail that will take t you to mall of America and a few other places in Minneapolis!
@@CherayaMiyoko Thank you for your advice - truly appreciated!!
Dear God💗❤️♥️💕💖💕❤️💞🙏in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus. I acknowledge to You that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the , life that I have lived; I need your forgiveness.
I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn from my sin.
You said in the bible that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved.
Right now I confess Jesus as my Lord. With my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my own personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved. Amen.
Ignore these Trump trolls in the comments, Minneapolis is a beautiful city.
They’d rather hide behind a screen and talk about what they hear from Fox News instead of doing something proactive about their miserable lives. It’s a good thing they don’t come here anyway. They’re better off staying in their boring little towns that have no superiority over Minneapolis.
Have lived in many cities but wow none have such dedicated haters as minneapolis. It is such a great city for it's size and not many cities in the us could compete. Sure the weather is rough but it makes up for it in livability!
#1. Avoid bullets
Bruh, they ruined the sculpture garden. I know that the storm in 13 screwed us a lot but like...cmon. This ain’t a big outdoor part though - Theo Wirth is. Biggest inner city park in the country. No one ever goes there. Minnehaha is saturated with people. Stay off the tourist track. A 💯.
My favorite things to do in Minneapolis:
#1. Follow signs for I-394 west
#2. Leave
It’s unfortunate you don’t like supporting all the amazing small businesses there.
Best thing to do when visiting Mpls is don’t visit Mpls.
The best thing to do is stay away
Best thing to do in Minneapolis: rent a u-haul and leave. It’s getting untenable there.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but Minneapolis is so large and there are so many good gems in the city!
Protest... Feed the homeless.... Carjack people... Am i getting warm...
No, those don't make the "top things to do" list, I'd actually highly dissuade any of those activities.
Nice try 🤣… Minneapolis?? 🙄No one is going there on purpose these days.
Minneapolis is my city, and there are many beautiful things about it. These small independent business owners deserve a shout out. And there are a lot of people interested in knowing the best things to do in Minneapolis.
Do you even live in Minnesota?

The Gospel of salvation of our souls: 💜💕💖✨💖❤️📖✝️🕎💡💡❤️❤️💞💕💖💕💕💜♥️❤️💕For what I received I passed on to you as of [first importance]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time,
