Seattle is very Veg*n friendly. Lots of ethnic restaurants and veg places, too. We have a lot of athletic events here (Mariners (baseball), Seahawks (football), Storm (women's basketball)). It's bicycle friendly and a lot of places to walk. There's a lot of well educated people here, and a lot of institutions of higher learning (University of Washington, Seattle University, City University, along with extentions of Higher learning places (Eastern Washington Univeristy, Washington State University) and community colleges (Highline, Green River, South Seattle, Seattle Central, North Seattle, etc.) There's a lot of bookstores, both chain and independent, although Bailey/Coy books is shutting down *sob*
. There's also a lot of movie theatres here, as well, and, in February, the Seattle International Film Festival happens....Let's see...in the summertime Seafair goes on, with parades in different neighborhoods every week. In December there's Christmas ship parades, there's the lighting of the star on Macy's and the carousel in Westlake...Holy ootchclaw this is long.
