Riding a train in my home country for the first time 🇺🇸 🚂

My FIRST EVER train ride in my own home country! ...Actually 3 train rides, and 2 transfers, 30 hours in total 😂 This was possibly the longest and most inconvenient train expedition I have ever gone on, but it was definitely memorable. Can't say I RECOMMEND these night trains, but I would do it again... on a different route with more interesting scenery, that is 🚞 #amtrak This video is part of my "visiting the US" mini series! China videos will be back mid-November.
