Escape Lax Life – Now Riding a Train to Chicago’s Hidden Gems Why bounce out of the daily grind in Los Angeles and saddle up for a transformative journey along America’s railroad to Chicago’s hidden gems? Enter Escape Lax Life—a bold new travel movement redefining urban exploration by trading endless coffee runs and screen time for authentic encounters, hidden history, and soulful discovery on the long national rail ride to the Windy City. ### The Lax Life: Stuck in a Cycle That Drains You Los Angeles offers culture, beauty, and endless energy—but its fast-paced rhythm often traps travelers and locals alike in a loop of stress and superficial sightseeing. From endless traffic to homogenized tourist spots, the Lax lifestyle can feel like a never-ending escape rather than an embrace of real adventure.
