WOW! What a great video. I'm moving to Seattle soon so came here expecting another generic video about the city's pros and cons. Instead, I got to watch a beautiful story :) Thank you for sharing your reality so wonderfully!
Seattle is a better place for having you in our midst. You guys remind me of us when we got here oh those 50 years ago Welcome to your new home and may your future be as bright as your expectations and I'm sure they will. Mike Kirwan - Kenmore, WA
the amount of joy the little clip of your dog running through the pink field at 7:55 has made me feel! i love your energy & your editing, all the best wishes and all the love to you, your partner and your dog! ♡
I grew up in Puget Sound area and have lived in Seattle for about 20 years. You fulfilled both my recommendations for people who want to relocate to Seattle. I always tell people to move here if: 1. You really love nature and hiking and want to spend your weekends in the mountains. 2. You are coupled and don't need to date. (or you're single and happy that way) For people who meet these recommendations, Seattle will feel like a great move. I'm actually trying to do the opposite and move to SoCal;)
@@ammanuelroberts5965 they have a term called the Seattle freeze & since it rains for half the year people usually stay home & read a book instead of going out to date. If you’re trying to date California is way better. I try to date in the summers cause in winters I’d rather stay a homebody or go back south to hometown California. This video clearly explained it at 5:28
@@ricecakeboii94 Seattle doesn’t rain as much as people think, but is often times overcast, putting people in gloomy moods. It’s not easy to date, but possible if you put yourself out there and take initiative.
@@ammanuelroberts5965 that’s why I date only in the summer. I’d rather stay inside & work on myself over the winters. Dealing with a modern day women in the rain is asking for a bad night.
This was such a sweet and well-made video! My bo and I are moving from SoCal to Seattle in a couple of months and I've been feeling anxious to move to the big city. Glad I stumbled upon your video!
I visited Seattle last year and fell in love. Moving to the PNW is such a huge dream of mine and watching your video made me tear up! I’ve lived in SoCal my whole life and I envision the next chapter of my life moving to Seattle. Thank you for sharing your journey and experience! I’m manifesting this dream into the universe. :’)
Honestly I can keep rewatching your video and never get tired of it. It makes me so happy about your move, puppy and seeing how happy you both are being there!! Towards the end it does make me get emotional 😭 ♥️
"These will be the new 'good ole days'" That's real! Keep enjoying your time up there. It's amazing how videos can capture those strong feelings and looking back in the future becomes much more surreal. Much love!
Im moving to Seattle within about 6 months, and have been searching for videos just to learn more and see about other people's experiences there. This was really beautiful. Not only did you make me fall more in love with Seattle, but it felt like a vulnerable look inside your life before and now in the PNW. Def subscribe and now I need to fall down a TH-cam home lol... kbye lol
This is such an amazing, special video! Me and my husband are currently planning to literally follow your steps - move from LA to Seattle and get a dog - and this video totally convinced us how awesome it could be. Your life in Seattle feels like such a dream :)
i just found your channel, and i am literally obsessed with you and your family. this video definitely gave me my reassurance of moving to Washington.. i’ve been wanting to move there for the past four years but always was scared too.
I’m also a southern california native, I made the move up to portland last spring and I really do love it!! the nature here in the PNW makes my heart complete, I relate to getting to fully experience the seasons like you mentioned🌿 I’m considering making the move up to seattle later this year and seeing you adopt your pup made me so happy bc that’s what I’m envisioning for myself once I’m there
Congrats Kelly! Thanks for sharing your job hunting experience, I had similar experiences like you, and now I've been working in the greater Seattle area for one year and a half! Cheers!
I'm going to be moving out the Seattle in 2022! I'm an almost second semester junior in college and the day I move away from my home state is ever slowly creeping up on me and I cannot wait. Your video really got me pumped for the future! Thanks for posting! :D
Thank you so much for showing tjis video, for not only showing the great sides of things but the down sides that some people may not know about until it happens
Nice video, Kelly! I do have to say though, that as someone that lived in Portland for 15 years, the PNW doesn't get that cold. Coming from Southern California I can understand why you feel that way, but because of the Pacific Ocean the PNW has mild weather compared to the Midwest, especially around the Great Lakes, and also the NE, both of which get way colder. Not to mention some of the those places have snow on the ground 6 months out of the year. I'm in FL in the Tampa Bay area, & it rains twice as much here as it does in the PNW. It can drizzle for days sometimes or it can just be cloudy, but hopefully you'll get used to it & will start going places in the winter. Since there is so much to do in both Seattle & Portland people don't stay home all the time. Maybe next year the winter will be a little bit easier for you. Enjoy the beautiful summer up there! You cannot beat PNW summers once the weather does improve. :)
Thank you for sharing this! I totally agree with you and think I'll be more prepared for next winter now that I know what to expect :) And you're soooo right - PNW summers are the BEST 💛 Clear skies, greenery EVERYWHERE, not too hot, and all of the hikes/lakes are just... MWAH *chefs kiss*
This is such an amazing video!! My husband and I have watched countless videos all on moving to Washington. Our minds are already set on moving but we like to watch them just incase we’re missing out on any cons that might come from it. Your story is beautiful and it’s sort of how we pictured ourselves too, so this video just confirmed the move lol. Of course here in Virginia we’re surrounded by family but we are looking forward to being on our own and finding our place and our ‘good old days’ - thank you for this video and I love how you organized everything and talked about the move to Seattle!
Welcome to beautiful Seattle my fellow Amazonian! I lived in Tacoma but also loved Seattle. I miss that magical part of the country. Lived there for 10 years. Only left due to the high cost of living and to be closer to my aging parents. All the best to you!
Great video! I stumbled across this & love that you’re enjoying Seattle, and your rescue pup! I live here & have 2 rescues. Hope you’re well & still loving it here even though Covid took over!
I just happened upon your channel, while looking for a TH-cam video along the theme of "The best of Seattle" (your "The Ultimate Seattle Travel Guide - 40+ things..." to do - is awesome). This is a great video, too. Joy is in the ear that hears.
Found your channel through this video in my recommended (thanks YT) and have binged ALL your video within about a week. Left my heart in Seattle a few years ago and this has inspired me to go back!
I love your spirit. I think that makes the video even more beautiful than it already is! Thank you for sharing your journey. I'm considering Seattle for grad school!
Such good quality content. Literally I'm watching your vids back to back. Movjng to Seattle in two weeks by way of a seven day road trip 😅 Great content and thank you for the information!
Kudos on making the move to Seattle. I've been wanting to move there since 2010 but just been chicken on making such a big move from Arkansas. I was just up there this past week (1/26/21-1/31/21) and it was still such a blast being up in my favorite city even during these times. Glad the move worked out for you and your family.
Love this video! So what I needed. I’m from South OC and my partner and I are thinking of moving to Seattle. Love your perspective coming from OC! Thank you so much for this!❤️
I am brand new to your channel and just got a job in Seattle. I was watching your video and was simply in awe of your storytelling. I was assuming you had MILLIONS of subscribers and was shocked when you didn't. I wanted to say that your video allowed me to live in your life for a little bit and I felt so welcomed. Thank you for this video, it is so so special.
Just came across this video as I'm in the last few round of interviews for a job in Seattle! This video is so well done, I watched the whole thing and loved it. Subscribed!
Wow this is so beautiful. I'm from NYC and I've been trying to move to the west coast for almost 3 years (basically trying to get a job over there). It was only this week that I explored the idea of moving to Seattle after applying to a job there, so now after watching your video, it makes me think about how beautiful it is over there !
Glad you got a job I’m scared but moving there this coming year! I’m so excited thank you for your story hope to meet you both! I’m from hawaii so starting off with no friends
This video is awesome! Thank you for showing all of the things that are around the area too! Hoping to move to seattle soon once im finished with school and this has definately solidified my decision!!!!
I love the feel of this video, Kelly!! Congratulations on your move - I can't wait to see more of your Seattle experience, I've always wanted to move there!
this just made me tear up! i'm moving to seattle from norcal next month and nervous as i am this video assured me that while I'll probably always think of california as home, i've got some great memories to make up in the PNW :,)
Wholesome couples content, quality dog loves AND an office reference?? I'm in the right place, and I know I'm moving to a city that has some of the coolest people in it
This was cool. I have no idea who you are but the structure of this video is so good. You have a unique ability to invoke emotion using your own personal experiences, not a lot of people can do that.
Manny watching Piper was the cuuuutest!! 🥺😍😭Loved this video, Kelly!!! Happy to see the wonderful life you and Anthony created for yourselves in Seattle 💖
Congrats on this great milestone. You’ve definitely made the right decision to let SF slide and move to Seattle. I moved from LA to SF back in 2013 and looking back I think I should have done better.
Hi there, I'm Wendy, nice to meet you. I also came across your video randomly and I watched all of it. I really enjoy it and even if I don't know you personally, I felt happy for you and how glad you are with your life in Seattle. I will subscribe and hope to see similar content from you, In witch you spread that joy! I leave near by since November and I haven't gone out as much (specially now) so I'll keep an eye of things you recommend to do in the Seattle area :D Have a nice day!
New subscriber here. 2nd comment edit as I mistakenly typed out a different name hehe… Kelly this was such a beautiful story you shared. Thanks for being so open. Can’t wait to know you and your family more! ❤️
You gotta keep making vids, looking at this comment section I think your channel will grow in time. The shots and snappy editing is something that we don't see to often. Anyway just wanted to show some support, love your channel and the personality that you show. Stay safe in this trying times and keep on what you doing
She seems like the kind of person that could move anywhere and fit right in. Her energy is contagious.
