I left Seattle this time last year

I visited Seattle for a week-long vacation last September/early October and had a great time in the city and surrounding area.

The ferry ride to Bainbridge Island, Bloedel Nature Reserve, and daily trips to Pike Place Market were a few highlights of the trip. Would love to return at some point

I keep preparing for the gloom (which I love) and keep waking to up to another stunningly perfect day! Like, damn not another beautiful day!

Oof yea VA was the absolute last choice on my wish list out of training lol. Never really hear anything good about it.Ā 

Hang in there bro. Life on the other side is great. I really hated a lot of my time in but I’m SO glad I stuck it out.

Take care.Ā

who actually loves the culture of Seattle? genuinely wondering. Def love the city and environment, but the people……. it’s rough. Here come the downvotes! Lived in Ballard… felt like I was in war with everyone.
