Dear Seattleite Readers,
Welcome to the Seattleite Book Club – the only virtual book club that spotlights the Pacific Northwest’s own authors and publishers!
The fishing village where cool kids frolic among tall ships and craft beers.
A mere two hours from Seattle there is a village tucked inside of another town tucked inside of a country that is not our own. It’s called Steveston, British Columbia and it sits inside Richmond — otherwise known as Vancouver’s dim sum-dappled little sister.
The ultimate vacation experience — without leaving the city.
There’s no place like home — and for Seattleites and visitors alike, the Emerald City is host to an excellent array of local attractions. This summer, take the opportunity to live the high life at the city’s best hot spots — even if it’s only for one night!
This month, Seattleite will feature a series of articles by Jon Meyer, our official Food + Travel Aficionado. Mr. Meyer recently completed a most excellent excursion throughout British Columbia, and has returned to the United States with tales of fine cuisine, outdoor adventure and charming encounters. Without further ado, here is the first installment of Jon’s Adventures in Canada.
These handy travel references cover much more than just the main attractions.
World travelers know there is a shortlist of essential tourist activities — snapping a picture in front of the Eiffel Tower, for example, or riding a camel to the Pyramids of Giza. Globetrotters don’t need a guidebook to tell them about these must-dos.
Portable travel guides help tourists navigate two of the world’s most confusing cities.
Traveling to a foreign country, eating delicious food and visiting exotic hot spots is an exciting, pleasurable experience. A crash course in Chinese, on the other hand, is not. The biggest travel nightmare is getting lost and having no way to communicate for directions — and this can easily become a reality if you are unfamiliar with your destination’s strange alphabet.
Travel expert Jenn Schutte tells us where to go and what to see across the pond.
“Travel is in my blood,” Jenn Schutte says. With a father who owned a travel agency and a mother who grew up in Europe, Schutte recalls an upbringing that was imbued with a sense of respect and wonderment toward the multicultural world we inhabit.
Now you can party and help the Hutch fight cancer at the same time.
If you’re a true Seattleite, you instinctively want to help Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in any way possible. And if you’re a true wine enthusiast, this event will grab you by the palate.
They look casual and don’t fall apart — the perfect combo for summer shoes.
West Coasters are an earthy bunch. We like to play in the snow, sand and surf — and thus, require durable attire that can withstand the elements. Cushe Footwear, a UK-based brand founded in 2004, understands our needs — at least, as far as our lower extremities are concerned. The company’s past collections — such as Urban Safari, Universal Traveller and Coastal Supremacy — have specifically targeted the outdoorsy contingent, and the same is certainly true of their two new models.
