If you had a 3-day weekend, I hope you enjoyed it! If not, I still hope you found some time to enjoy this absolutely BEAUTIFUL fall weather. Every year I wait around for summer, but I think it’s finally time to be true to myself… Early fall is my favorite season here in the PNW.

Let’s start off today with a reaaaally good giveaway!

SHOW OFF SEATTLE TO YOUR OUT-OF-TOWN PARENTS

My parents recently came to visit Seattle, and since they’ve already done most of the touristy stuff, I decided it was my time to shine as their personal tour guide. I wanted to show them all the things Seattle is famous for, like amazing coffee, fresh seafood, and our grungy music history, but without the tourist traps.

Think neighborhood gems, local favorites, and spots that give you the full Seattle experience without feeling like you're on a sightseeing tour. And I’m sharing all my spots to impress with YOU! Show off Seattle in a local’s way with this guide.
