If you want to get somewhere, you should know where you are,
what your starting point is,
and that's how I like to call it:
Starting point!
Some people say departure point,
I don't!
Because we might run the risk of passing it by,
as if we were just somewhere we're eager to depart from, to leave.
Not my case,
I know where I am!
I'm in Los Angeles,
and I certainly want to enjoy it!
Los Angeles...
There's so many different nicknames for it.
Like, it means "the angels"
if you translate it directly from Spanish.
Or "The City of Angels," or "LA,"
or "La La Land"
if you believe that it's the city of dreams.
Some people call it
"The City of Eternal Sunshine and Flowers."
I think that those people think it never rains here,
which it absolutely does!
There's also a kind of an informal Hollywood name...
"Tinseltown."
I don't like that one, it makes me feel like
people think we only care about looks and glamour,
which is not true.
Oh! Some people call it "The Big Orange."
You know, like The Big Apple in New York, The Big Orange, Los Angeles.
You've probably never heard of that one!
Didn't really catch on that well...
But there are orange trees in our landscape.
In fact, I think that most nicknames for cities
probably come from the landscape, and the details,
and the way that the people feel about it.
What do I call LA?
What do I call it the most? I guess I call it LA, or Los Angeles...
Or, you know...
Honestly, if I look out here and I see all the beautiful traffic and the mountains...
LA is my home.
Yeah, it really is.
When I think of LA, I think of home,
it's really a magical place to live in.
I guess it's always felt like my home, I love this place, I really do.
I think it's time we get moving.
I feel it.
Are you ready?
Let's go!
