As a native Seattleite, I have lived in Seattle almost all my life. In fact, I actually live in the same zip code I was born in, which is pretty phenomenal given there are 60 zip codes! What I love about Seattle is that it has so many amenities. It has a great downtown, it’s on the water and it’s only an hour away from great skiing, hiking and many other popular destinations. There are also lots of diverse neighborhoods in Seattle. I’ve had the pleasure of living in nine different neighborhoods and working downtown. Having attended the University of Washington, I also got to experience one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. Seattle has also earned a reputation for its culinary delights! There are so many good restaurants. Despite its reputation for rain, Seattle doesn’t average that much rainfall, but does have a lot of overcast days.
Notes: the highlighted neighborhoods are all places where I've lived or worked.
