Positano has spoiled me. This city looks hideous. I'm actually quite shocked. Seattle is in a beautiful part of the world. I really expected it to look different, better. The nature is great, but what the humans have done, the architecture, the layout, the overall ergonomics and look of the place, is just not nice. It's not inviting. Not like European cities. So unfortunate. But great work, and thanks for posting it.
спасибо получила истинное удовольствие посмотреть места которые воочию никогда не увидишь всегда смотрю вас особенно природа и архитектура парки и тому подобное❤
I came here to see the beautiful Seattle, Wa. Thank you for sharing this. My son lives in Seattle, and I have not seen him in over ten years. I have not heard from him, I am concerned. I hope he is well. He told me where he was working last, hope he is happy. No word from him this Mother's Day. I keep him in my prayers.
That happened to me and my mom. I was just terribly sad and withdrawn and the longer i went without talking to my family the harder it became this huge obstacle. We're back in contact now and I'm doing much better. I hope you can contact him. ❤
Lovely day there. You need to be cognizant of the street rules, though. You almost got broadsided by that truck (‘cause it was his turn to go…). Seattle is a beautiful city (but so expensive…).
What a cute and educational video on this beautiful city. I was amazed at how beautiful University of Washington is and how massive it is. Seattle is packed in history and is a place i would love to visit again in detail. Not sure what bike you were using but the battery life in that thing is amazing lol.
Hey, glad you enjoyed it. I'll be going back to UW soon to film a walk around the campus. The bike did great. I filmed the video on two different days though.
Great video !! First time seeing Seattle ! Whenever I thought of Seattle I would think RAIN, but your video showed an incredible day. How often do you get days like that ?? Btw-really appreciate the “close-captioning”. Makes the video a viewing and learning experience.
Seattle has great weather from then end of May until the end of October. Washington is really beautiful. ...but now, it is dreary and dark. :) I'm glad I got the bike ride filmed when I did. I'll be posting up a Seattle walking tour in a couple weeks that I filmed in August. Glad you enjoyed this video and the captions. Seattle is my old stomping grounds.
Hey Isaac! Been watching since the pandemic, when your videos helped keep me sane! I'm mostly interested in European content, but checked out this video since I lived in Seattle during college. Fun to find out you're a fellow Falcon (mid-90s for me)! I'd like to see some Canadian content and some general PacNW stuff as well. I have a vague recollection that you did a Vancouver video already. Maybe another one would do well since you've got an expanded audience now? Victoria? Would a Puget Sound ferry ride video get any views? Ferry up to Alaska? Leavenworth? San Juan Islands bike rides? Hwy 2/20 drive? Lake Chelan ferry/hike combined with a visit to Holden Village? Segment hike of the Pacific Crest Trail? Columbia River Gorge? I'd watch all of that. But maybe only because I'm already familiar with the area and am currently stuck in the midwest.
Hey, glad you're enjoying the walks. Yeah, I was thinking I'd film a new Vancouver walk this summer. I've wanted to film the ferry to Bremerton too but just haven't had a chance. Those are all good suggestions. Just need to wait for some better weather. I just flew out of SeaTac on Tuesday and am in Tokyo right now. A few of my cousins went to SPU in the mid90s as well, btw.
Thank you for making my indoor ride bearable (even enjoyable). It's dark, cold, wet and windy here outside (in the Netherlands), so "riding" on a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon through Seattle was nice.. informative as well.
Thanks for showing us your home town and sharing snippets of your life. It sounds like your life in Seattle was good. I really enjoyed this video particularly the tree lined streets with the trees in their fall colors, the waterside areas and the university grounds. My first knowledge of Seattle arose watching Frasier on TV and seeing the skyline at the start of the show with the Space Needle. At the end of the show Frasier says "Goodnight Seattle! Frasier has left the building" I still love the show with it's quirky humor no matter how many reruns I see. Seattle also came up in my reading of the Twilight series with Bella's visit to the city to shop for prom dresses and buy an Indian book. Safe travels to you and your family, Donna
Hi Donna, I never did watch Frasier. I've heard from a lot of people that it's good. I'll have to check it out. Seattle is a great city. We went there every other weekend almost when I was a kid. I'll be posting up a Seattle walking tour next week...but first will be a new Capri evening walk. I hope all is going well on your end. Thanks again for your support!
I moved here for work and stayed here because it is the most beautiful city I have visited. Great city for cycling, especially the hills. P.S. Microsoft's home is Redmond and the 30 mile ride from Seattle to Redmond on the Burke-Gilman and Sammamish trail is also worth recording.
So far, a great tour for me, and looking foreward to watching the rest and then rewatching.. I also graduated from SPU with math degree. (1980's) Nice that you went by Otto Miller. Lived all over Seattle during my college years (took 8 for my undergrad) including Queen Anne, University District, Fremont, and Ballard. used to run a little and walk mostly through the neighborhoods, and spent lots of time at many of the highlight places on your route. your history about the troll is interesting to me.. I remember at some point finding the troll, (I left Seattle in 1991) and wondering why I had never noticed it before. Now I know. At the time, the troll really had no popularity, can't remember ever seeing other people there.
On Ravenna Boulevard - it is an Olmstead Parkway! It was I believe completed by his heirs, but he proposed it as a way to get from UDistrict to Green Lake quickly by car surrounded by serene nature.
Really enjoy the bike tours especially. Feels like we're along for the ride. If you are considering any more US tours, some national parks could be pretty cool?
Thank you for this! I'm traveling to Seattle in January 2025 as a present to myself for my 50th Birthday. On a hockey and grunge pilgrimage. Nice to see how Seattle looks in warm sunny weather, because the weather won't be quite the attraction in January 😂 More like home in Trondheim, Norway... Anyway, you should comment that "Key Arena" is now home to the NHL franchise the Seattle Kraken and was rebuilt to a state-of-the-art professional arena while keeping the Key Arena trademark roof. Quite an engineering feat! They dug out and lowered the bowl while keeping the roof suspended. Anyhow, great work with this and your later walk of Seattle's sights! Norwegian thanks! 🇳🇴🐙🎸
so you mean to tell me that unfortunately you were not able to see Nirvana BUT saw Lisa Loeb, Pearl Jam, Bad Religion, the Pixies, and Rancid?!?!? Apart from a great taste in travel you also have a great taste in music! Thank you for letting us travel with you 🚲
Back in the late 80's-early 90's. Seattle had the most amazing music scene in the world. I was lucky enough to be living there at the time. Saw Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden at the Ballard Firehouse (at various times..not all at once. Although that would have been EPIC)
So beautiful! Hope to visit someday. Seattle is spiritually close to my heart. Thank you so much for sharing! It has always looked beautiful in pictures, but your tour brings it so much to life! Even more beautiful than imagined. Take care.
Towards the end, I was impressed that the bike was still going. I didn't know they had that kind of range! Anyway, my girlfriend and I visited her brother in Seattle about two years ago. It was one of those weeks where it was sunny every day, so I don't think I got the full Seattle experience. We took and underground city tour, and it was a lot of fun. The fire was a tragedy and all, but the way it was detailed sounded like a hilarious, Simpsons-esque cascade of bad decisions culminating into one of the world's biggest "lessons learned". Lastly, I'm not a Sounders fan, but you completely ignored them. I hope no one from the team sends you hate comments.
I rode all over Seattle myself since I grew up by Dick's on 45th. I went to Latona/Hamilton/Lincoln. I was glued to the screen the whole time. Is it played real time, or sped up? I was afraid of crashing at the speed it seemed we were going but I thoroughly enjoyed it all!
I went from a Bologna tour to this. Dear god, but, there is some charme to be found. But not a lot yet. No skip the last remark, its horrible. These outskirts :O
All of the above. I actually live on the east side of the state. But I have visited Seattle several times over the years. I’m waiting for all the work on the waterfront to get done and than I’m coming back over for an extended visit to see the new waterfront
I almost never wing it. I had this entire route planned out but I had to change it while I was riding because I was planning to walk through the Ballard Locks and start riding again on the other side to Fisherman's Terminal, but I could not walk my bike and film at the same time, so I rode down 15th and across the Ballard Bridge again. Everything else was preplanned.
