Hi online friends!
I’m riding a wave of increased inspiration and creativity these times and hope that it will deliver me back again to running a blog (on my very own blog) much more commonly. It goes without having stating that 2020 has thrown us all several curve balls – it’s been a very bumpy journey. But irrespective of every thing taking place around the earth, I am finding peace in our new location in Seattle. We’ve lived in Seattle a entire 6 months now — just after indicating farewell to Florida and embarking on a 15-working day trek throughout the place. Even though we’re even now incredibly much Seattle newbies, it feels like we’ve been in the PNW a lot more time than that (my guess is it has anything to do with the “continue to be at property” orders).

Following a trying 6-week home hunt in January and February, I’m extremely delighted with exactly where we landed — for now. An itty bitty 100-12 months-previous ouse in the Admiral District of West Seattle, I am embracing the pleasant neighborhood and group factor with all of my staying. I usually felt alone and isolated whilst dwelling in Florida, and so I’m building a powerful effort and hard work to foster friendships in our new town (COVID has designed a number of hurdles which I’m positive you can consider).
Every person claims summer is the very best Seattle season, and I’m below for it! With no vacation ideas on our calendar in the speedy long term, regrettably, I’m focusing on exploring all there is in and all over the metropolis. Largely all-around, simply because let’s be serious… going “into” the metropolis even now intimidates me, and I’ll take a journey to the mountains above the metropolis streets any day.
These days you can both discover me a) on line, or b) outside. I’ve been pouring huge quantities of time into both of those my Virtual Assistant and Beautycounter businesses. And when I’ve overdosed on display screen time, you’ll find me going for walks or operating close to my community, hiking a new attractive PNW trail, or dabbling in gardening (particularly observing Nick are inclined to our initial veggie garden).
I made a large batch of my mom’s tabouli that we savored at the beach front in excess of 4th of July weekend, but other than that, I haven’t been spending as well a lot time in the kitchen area. Although I’ll generally be a nutrition nut and foodie at coronary heart, my GI issues often discourage me from getting creative in the kitchen as I go on to get the job done with many practitioners to both determine out and mend my sad gut. I’ve generally considered wellbeing as a lot additional than the foods we set into our bodies and how substantially we move them, so in this summer months year, I’m leaning into the many other aspects of wellness – beyond come to feel superior meals and exercise.
In this article are some pictures from our initial summer in Seattle – and it’s just the commencing! You can locate me on Instagram sharing additional of our PNW adventures on the common. Will share a lot more below soon!
