A poem to a city that has quickly become my home. Seattle, you are wonderful.
This is very different from my usual video blogs, but I wanted to show you all the beautiful city I live in from my own perspective.

Dear Seattle,
I've lived in you for two and a half years now, and I still quite haven't gotten over the fact that when I look up at your skyscrapers, it makes me realize how small I really am.
I have never been a huge fan of your consistent rain and what must be endless overcast, but as soon as the dew finally evaporates off of the grass I tend to forget about all of your clouds and any other worry that now seems as far gone as winter.
The aroma of coffee brings me to your streets daily. On bike or by foot your trees pass swiftly by me just like the ferries floating near Pike Market or the small boats that linger past the great blue Fremont Bridge.
And when I sit on the hill at Gas Works Park or the edge of Queen Anne looking over the Space Needle, the view makes the walk seem worth it. I love how the day's light sinks below the Olympics and your new city lights shine into my sight, every night.
Your citizens are like no one I've ever encountered. With their funny shaped glasses, flannel shirts or anything that can be found in a thrift shop for that matter, they contain a style unlike anywhere else.
You'd think that I would've fit in too with my plain T-shirt and blue-jeans, but I've come to realize that the idea of self-expression in Seattle is much more than trying to mesh into the majority. Without the immense diversity between these buildings, the street art wouldn't be nearly as interesting.
From the cafes of Capitol Hill to the streets of Wallingford, your alleyways and underground locations are full of surprises.
There is never a dull day living in you, Seattle.
Growing and constantly changing; though you are vivid and full of life. Your culture is your own and I can't wait to see what you have in store for me tomorrow.
Love, 
a very happy citizen.
