Do you live in a big city? What do you like/dislike about it?
Love Seattle, been a couple of times. Live in LA, talk about big cities, expensive food and traffic 🥵
I live just down south in Tacoma... it’s like a tiny seattle lol
I live in Chicago. It is a beautiful city, but I agree with you. It is extremely expensive. Chicago has the highest sales tax in the country, it is crazy high at 10.25%. It has excellent food and sites but actually looking into a slower pace city and a city with better weather year round. Chicago is my hometown, but change is good. Love your video Allison! Cheers 💕
I live in Fort Wayne, the second largest city in Indiana. One thing I've actually learned to love about the Midwest as I've grown up here is getting four seasons in one day. Our city is constantly buzzing, and it's surprisingly entertaining for younger people.
Love Seattle ♥️ I live in Houston and love all the variety in the city. So many great places! Since transitioning to working from home, I’m considering moving to the ‘burbs to save a little money and get a change of scenery since commuting is no longer a major consideration. P.S. your ‘mouse’ comment made me lol... that’s so me 🐭’s or 🐭 🐭 🧐
I know Seattle (and my city, Vancouver) get a bad rep sometimes for being so rainy in the cooler months, but I love the green, misty look of Pacific Northwest winters.
And as I tell my siblings, who live in central BC, we don't have to shovel rain!
I couldn't agree more on what she feels about Seattle. I am from Canton, China, and I have been living in Seattle for 6 years. I just love here. Every time I drove back from Portland or came down from North, when I see the City of Seattle, I feel like I am back at home. This city is just amazing amazing amazing. Love it and want to live here forever.
You bring in life, and the vibes of the places to your videos every time! Fan from India since your Alaska video. Cheers!
Seattle is my city too. Maybe you have to be a native to really love the ferries but I do too. All you posted is exactly what I miss about Seattle. I do love the rainy, windy beaches and miss the coffee. There is truly no place like home. Enjoy your time. I will subscribe so I can keep up with you.
Moved from San Diego for college to Seattle with my (now fiancée) boyfriend and wow. Loved Seattle so much but i learned that I am not bred for nearly 9 solid months of cold. We lasted two years and came back to the Bay Area. miss so much about Seattle but... it’s sunny in November here so i’m happy to be home 😝
Going downtown just breaks my heart now. The city is so empty! I miss all the hustle.
From Bay Area and LA and every time I visit Seattle, I fall a little more in love with it. I don't mind the gloomy weather and cold so Seattle is almost perfect.
those ferry boat and establishing shots in the beginning be giving me Grey's Anatomy vibes
Same. Derek’s vibe on the ferry 😂
I'm from Bainbridge Island! Its so weird seeing it in all this fancy cinematography when its just the streets I used to walk through everyday. Pro tip about the ferry: in the summer the view is best if you go upstairs (ps not to self promote but I do make lots of videos about living in Washington if you want to see them)
I’m glad you shared your channel. I’m thinking of moving to Washington from LA, but not sure if I’m brave enough.
Its a great place to be! It is hard to make friends with covid though so that would be my one hesitation if I were you. But I love the culture and its so beautiful!
@@AshleyLoraAnderson I’m actually not concerned so much with that. I have my group of friends and they’re all living in different cities already. My husband and I are really introverted and we’re past our mid 30’s now. Love to hear that you’ve had a great experience.
How has no one commented on your intro about the ferry being the best view? That was a total Derek shepherd throwback from greys!!
You're totally in my neighborhood! (Belltown/Pike Place area.) Can confirm that Seattle OWNS coffee and sushi. Can also confirm that parking sucks (and is insanely expensive). Happy to have found your TH-cam.
Used to live on Pudget Sound. It’s unbelievably beautiful there. Thank you for showing the city from your perspective 🧡.
I miss Seattle so bad! I´m Spanish but I worked in Vashon Island for two years and I love the area!
I would love to see more like this! I may never see Seattle in real life but would love to see through your eyes in your amazing videography 💛💛
I named my dog Puget💙. He was a pug. I got him shortly after my brother died who worked at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton. 10 yrs later, after Puget died, I took my first trip back to Seattle. I stayed at The Edgewater, I booked a room on the first floor with a balcony over the water. I wanted to be as close as possible to Puget Sound. I sat on that balcony for hours everyday, taking in all the salty air. I also took the ferry to Bremerton and visited the Navy museum. There is something eerily beautiful about that Sound. It still has my heart.🖤
I love my home town so much! The ferry ride to Bainbridge is so beautiful. I honestly feel so lucky having grown up on Bainbridge! It is just so beautiful
This really spiked my memories of seattle! Thank you for this video! We are swiss and moved home this year but we were in Chicago for four years and had spent some time in Seattle as a get away trip-I instantly fell in Love with the city and the nature around it! We will for sure be back some day!
Wow, this is so nostalgic... I left Seattle about two years ago to move back to Japan. I agree that every coffee shop in Seattle has to be good to stay in business. Ah miss cherry street... I love their Milky Way. Everything you mentioned about Seattle in this video made me miss Seattle so bad!
Sea , Cold wind, Rain and Clouds i love it
Love this. I grew up there and I’m in San Diego now. I miss the puget sound so much. So many great memories on and around it. 🤍
As somebody who just visited over Thanksgiving break, I am having MAJOR SEATTLE FOMO! I miss it already 😔
This is a very charming city and easy to get to, I hope I can return to visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
Loved it! I got all in my feels when you were on the island talking about $15 sandwiches , but the mist and the view and the PNW-ness of it all. I actually said "Fifteen Dollars" right before you did! 😁 Thanks for showing off the good stuff :)
I’m from Seattle and just moved to New York! I used to take the ferry to Bainbridge island all the time and it’s so beautiful. So cool to see someone else from Seattle :)
Greetings from Saudi Arabia
I lived in Seattle from 2013-2015, a lot of great memories in this beautiful city with many people in the UW, downtown, Northgate, lake city, and more
Hope to come back someday ❤️
I live in Kitsap, best of both worlds. Slow speeds, easy living and just at ferry to the city.
Seattle was my first solo trip! It's a beautiful place.
Loved that a new video was posted! Never miss one of yours!
Your videos are amazing... I love how your content has changed. Im thinking about buying my first digital camera aaah. And I love camping and coffee
Love how you showed off how beautiful Seattle is even in the winter... people think it’s so crappy and rainy here. Hopefully you visit Tacoma sometime!
You are the BEST. this video was so beautiful. Makes me miss Seattle
I’m here in Seattle downtown during covid and this video gives me some ideas on spots to check out. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing Allison
I was actually supposed to be in Seattle to visit my boyfriend's family for Thanksgiving weekend but we ended up having to cancel because of COVID! So cool that I still get to see the city through this video, thank you for sharing Allison 😊
Hi Allison! Thank you for sharing this video.
i used to watch your videos when i was in high school, but just recently rediscovered your channel and i’m so glad i did!! i grew up on Bainbridge Island but moved to Queen Anne this summer after graduating college. i prefer living in the city cause there’s much more to do and things are more accessible for me, but i go to Bainbridge on the weekends a lot to visit my family. i love your seattle videos!! :)
We visited Seattle from FL a couple of years ago in the spring. The ferry was awesome.
Loved this video. Reminded me of my trip to Seattle 2 years ago. It was my first time on a plane and I was super nervous, but the city was such a treat overall. Parking, like you say, is HORRIBLE and the meter/payment system is a pain in the a**. Thankfully, Pike Place Market, the Sound, cute little places with live music, and Piroshky Piroshky made the trip worth it!
Love this! I live in the Midwest and Seattle is high on my bucket list of places to visit!
I love Seattle. This video is a great tour for people who wants to visit Seattle. Kudos!
My last vacation was actually flying to Seattle and taking the Amtrak train to and from Vancouver (in February). The flights were super cheap so it was kind of a last-minute decision and ended up being the last bit of "normal" life before everything changed. We stayed in both Belltown and Pioneer Square and it was so much fun! But it's sad to see that a bunch of the restaurants and places we visited are permanently closed. I had wanted to go to the Cinerama and it was being renovated at the time...who knows if/when it will reopen, ugh. I'm from Chicago so Seattle actually feels cozier than a "big city" to me, but it's all relative :)
We used to come down for weekends, but haven't been down for 4 years. We are so looking forward to coming to Seattle once there's a vaccine.
I have such a pull to the Pacific Northwest and this is just amplifying!!!!! Gosh looks lovely
So glad I found your channel!!! Love finding youtubers who are based in my city ❤️
love this ! Thank you
I moved from Ohio to Seattle in September. It’s sooooo beautiful here but with COVID restrictions I haven’t gotten out much but I’m really excited to see all the things, I hope. It wasn’t too cold for me this winter.
I lived on Mercer Island, right next to Seattle, for a year and half. I left 5 years ago, and to this day it is still by far my favorite city in the world. The views are just breath taking. This city holds some really special memories for me (including meeting the love of my life), I can't wait to make it back ! We live in France now so it's little tricky at the moment... But we hope to visit when the COVID madness will be over !
Seattle is one of my top bucket list cities! Looks beautiful! xxx
The « face covering » speaker announcement on the ferry made it feel like some type of dystopian movie but....that’s the reality we live in now! 🙊
No, that’s the reality YOU live in.
Red states are going to bars, shopping, going to work and having a good time.
Freedom is a wonderful thing.
Great coffee and chocolate chip banana bread. Yes, we can absolutely agree on that!
I LOVE Seattle! This makes me want to go back lol ❤️
This is lovely! I've lived a ferry ride away from Seattle my whole life in a small town called Port Orchard! It's a luxury being so close to enjoy but not having to pay to live in the city! Love your videos, cheers!
I miss Seattle so badly. Thanks for this video!
dang it this video makes me miss travel soo much. seattle looks like such a cool city.
Dude, I love Seattle!!! It's so pretty
Totally forgot the Orange Julius and Cinnabon. :) Last year my wife and I watched the fireworks on Lake Union. It was so surreal, 4 & 5 million dollar yachts for sale, the pier with fireworks... If your ever in the area, there is a little pub / outdoor restaurant just east of the Park and harbor, about a 10 minute walk from the Space Needle. Totally recommend it. I don't think I ever knew the name of the spot, but it was AWESOME!
And please tell the Pentatonix to sing at the George Amphitheater next time there here. Traffic in Tacoma was CrAzY! almost 2 hours driving down main street. And George is just off the interstate. Bring an umbrella though for the sun.
I miss Cherry Street Coffee too and also Monorail Espresso!
Hi Allison, could you do a video about the pros & cons of living in Seattle? Am thinking about relocating to Seattle and would love more insight into it!
Just moved to Bainbridge Island. Glad you love our little Nantucket of the West!
Yay! I want to visit so badly!
omg umi has the BEST sushi happy hour!!!!
What an amazing life in Seattle. Enjoying coffee and the best chocolate banana chip cookie combination in city. Especially your travel and blog life. Go for it!
I miss living in Seattle so much
I live in Toronto and I do love living here but man, the rent is willdddddddd
I've heard that about Toronto. Never been but would love to visit!
@@allisonanderson hi allison how are you
Awesome place!
I recently moved to Tacoma from Seattle for some of those cons you listed. But Seattle will always be such a special place to me. Feels so great to visit for the day and soak in all my favorite things! Thank you for the tip on the banana chocolate bread. And shoutout to Umi, love that sushi spot! :)
For anyone who is worried about sunshine and rain, I am in Eastern Washington and it's high desert 90's all summer so a 2 hour drive over I-90 or the other pass highway 2 from Everett gets you dried out and sunburned any weekend trip
Agree about the Bluetooth headphones and the voice sync issue - good video
We loved our time in Seattle. We’d pack up and move our family there in a heartbeat. Also, it would help if it wasn’t so expensive. 😁
I’m in Seattle nooooow from Chicago n I really love it !!!!
I'm jealous of your rain! I'm tired of SoCal sun haha
I love Seattle! ❤️
I can't wait to visit the city..fan from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Always love your videos! I'm actually following my parents to Washington in a couple years, I figure I'll be in Seattle - but is there any other area outside the city you'd recommend for living? Taking note of your comments on parking and sandwich prices!
AHHHH this is pulling on all of my heartstrings. I'm prepping to leave Seattle for at least 6 months in the new year and I ALREADY miss Seattle haha. Man I LOVE this city! x
Also... can confirm that this city turns you into a coffee snob & the fact that parking garages are v tiny here haha
Seattle is cute. I've been there once when i was 16💙
I live in Seattle and have a love/hate relationship with all the same things you mentioned, haha. But this was such a lovely vlog, your photography/video is always stunning. I can't wait to be able to safely explore the city again.
Hello Allison we hope all is well . We love seeing places from all over the world as we are a travel channel . thank you for sharing this wonderful city with us . Take care Stay safe Love and Light Sarah and Glenn
Your beanie is adorable
What a cool mouse 😊
Los Angeles born and raised in the center of the city (West Adams/Midcity). But currently living in the desert. I definitely miss all of the conveniences that the city offers..like if i want a pastrami sandwich at 2am I can totally make it happen. Entirely do not miss the parking situation or traffic. Its like a bad joke.."you know youre from LA when" someone invites you out and your decision on going is entirely based on the parking situation. Would love to visit Seattle one day!
For your headphones, if you get the app for the brand that you have, you can make it to where it won’t lag.
I live there so cool every thing you showed me I saw before
You left Seattle meanwhile I am thinking of moving into the area around Seattle - mainly because I love mountains and nature!
You make me wana move to Seattle even though a sandwich costs $15! 🙈
Bullshit. I'm Only a 42year resident of Seattle, so what do I know? MORE than you.
If you ever make your way back to Vancouver, please also check out Gibsons and the Sunshine Coast!! It sounds similar to Bainbridge and I think you'd really enjoy!
I loved this vlog. I love living in Seattle but equally hate the parking and construction. :(
And im thinking I need a logitech mouse now. Also your tech gift guide was amazing btw
Great video - hoping to visit again soon after pandemic. Love the opening music cue - what is it?
Is this the renew down long puffer? I love the color! Is it comfy? How’s the fit?
Wasn't bainbridge island where you got married too? it looks so beautiful! I live in NYC and love all the food options, variety of people and cultures, walking in the city, central park, and much more but I have decided to leave next year to pursue a new career and part of that reason is also that the I want to live somewhere with way less people, less noise, more nature, more peace, just somewhere calmer and nyc is not exactly calm. Also living expenses here are something else lol..it will however always have a place in my heart
Just 1advice to your Seattle tour, I loved the fish ladder when I lived there. :)
I'm visiting Seattle 10 25 to 10 31 I'm excited definitely enjoyed your video. How's the weather there late October ?
I moved away from Seattle a year ago. The two things I miss the most are 1. natural beauty, and 2. the FOOD!
Now I wanna try some bamna bread from the place you mentioned
Don’t ask me why, but the brief detour to Google the plural of computer mouse cracked me up 😅
I remember back in the day when you didn't drink coffee, but you love the smell of coffee beans
That banana bread!
You can’t go wrong living in the PNW
If you don’t mind me asking, how do you make enough as an influencer to have an apartment directly in the city? I’d love to find a passion project that would allow me to be creative and live in a city
