The beauty in the PNW is just magical

How fortunate I am to live in the beautiful PNW.  We have it all in Washington.  Green forests, beaches, cruise ships, Seattle, and the perfect place for a family vacation.  Flying into Seattle is easy and there are so many places to go once you get here.  


The Pacific Northwest refers to the northwestern portion of the USA bordered by the Pacific Ocean and Cascade Mountains, primarily the states of Washington and Oregon, but more broadly including parts of California, Idaho and Alaska. This lush region is known for its dramatic coastline, snow-capped mountains and lush forests, as well as unique and independent towns and cities with locals that prize outdoor adventure and local cuisine. A road trip is an ideal way to catch all of the sights this region is famous for. In the span of just a few days, you can experience everything from wine tasting and whale watching to coffee culture and coastal views – all without getting on a plane!


In addition to being surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, the Emerald City is home to famed Pike Place Market where you can take in the quintessential Pacific Northwest experience.
