the past year has been filled with ups and downs, as any year in life does. but i am so excited for what my second year in seattle will hold...

i love my emerald city (it took me a while) but i can't see myself living any where else at this point in my life. i am glad the couple times i almost gave up and moved back, people talked me out of it.

i love about seattle, here are some reasons why

fremont
capital hill (i have spent a lot more time up there latley)

What is Trabant Chai?
I drive a Trabant myself, its an old Soviet car that is made of plastic- but i've never heard of the tea!

Trabant Chai is a chai lounge. i don't think they actually have a drink called the "trabant" but they do have lots of tasty drinks.

therefore if you are ever in the Seattle area, definitely make that one of your stops!
