Seattle: The Emerald City

tags: ,

Introduction

After having spent a whole meaningless day on a fitting title, I decided to run with the most generic title one could possibly imagineーthe nickname. A couple candidates came and left, such as Seattle Trip, Trip to Seattle, Visiting Seattle, etc. However, these all managed to grab my attention just as well as a documentary at 3 a.m. would (I love certain documentaries, but there's a lot more exciting activities I'd rather be doing, sleeping being a great example). Besides, I didn't think any of the bland titles gave credit to just how much fun I had during my time in Seattle (Thank you, dear sister of mine).

After graduation, I had the opportunity to visit Seattle, where my sister was working as a product manager for a large tech company. She was generous enough to fly me from Michigan to Washington round-trip, so I decided to take upon her offer despite the trip back being a red-eye flight. I didn't know what to expect, as I had kind of left the scheduling to her. Little did I know that I would enjoy almost all of it, except for all the walking that I had to do. (a minor price to pay) I felt that the least I could do to repay the favor is to write a detailed post about my experiences.
