I woke up to a rooster this morning. No, I am not staying on a farm. I am in Redmond, Wash. which is just outside of Seattle where I arise in the morning to the sound of "urban chickens."
I feel like I have gone to another world where everything is backwards. Kind of like Japan.
Seattle is beautiful and full of interesting people. I thought I would stand out here as the stranger looking to escape his problems by running away to Seattle. It turns out that it is made up of people like me.
My accommodations have been wonderful. Jessica's parents were delighted to meet me. All of my unspoken and unanswered questions about her personality quirks were solved by 10 minutes of conversation with her family. When I arrived at my temporary home, the lady of the house taught me how to give a proper hug, gave me a tour and left for Japan the next day.
In conclusion, Washington is full of Starbucks, hipsters and trees.
It is wonderful.
