Seattle.

So it took me almost three years, but I finally made the trip to visit my brother in Seattle. This was my first time in the city and I immediately fell in love. What a vibrant, clean, exciting place - it's hard to not imagine living there. I actually was reminded quite a bit of Scotland, and not just because of the rain. The houses in the residential neighborhoods are northern European inspired and there is a familiar bustle in Seattle that also exists across the pond. I can't wait to go back, though maybe next time I won't go in winter.
