The first and foremost reason why Washington is the best? It hosts the incredible city of Seattle. There is so much culture to see and mostly everyone you meet is friendly. Check out the Space Needle for amazing views of the city!
I’m referring to the Experience Music Project Museum. Feel like checking out “that big ass coat” Macklemore was wearing from the Thrift Shop? It’s on display for the world to see at this museum.
A secret place that my family showed us the first time I was in Washington was Snoqualmie Falls. Take a very short walk to the bottom, bring a tube and float down the river, or grab a snack at the beautiful overlook.
That’s right the OG Starbucks location is in Washington at the infamous Pike Place Market. Plus, there’s tons of other things like fresh cut flowers, the fish toss and so much more!
Besides the Seahawks, Mariners, and Sounders FC; you have plenty of college teams to follow, like Washington State.
There are so many scenic places to hike and views of mountains literally everywhere you go. Not to mention snowboarding – name a mountain and you’ve got one heck of a ride ahead of you.
There are a ton of breweries around to keep you busy for 150 days. Visit all 150 breweries in Washington, I’m sure you won’t get bored!
If you would prefer checking out something that’s not Seattle (and why would you ever want to do that…), Spokane is just as alluring!
Washington is the best in regards to anything to do with snowboarding, I will direct you to number 6 again! It is so fantastic to get out and play in the snow.
Belleview is the perfect place to spend some time throwing your money away 😉
Quick history lesson – Mount St. Helen’s erupted back in 1980. Now there is a gorgeous national monument that is definitely worth paying respect to.
Another thing that makes Washington the best is the diversity of the terrain. From the mountains to the volcanoes to the beaches – it’s got it all! Head on over to the coast and explore Ocean Shores.
Boating, fishing, local ice cream parlors; this town has it all.
Plus the CEO and Aquarium president gave a Ted talk on why aquariums matter…so that means something, right?
I mean, they have a new baby gorilla….and baby animals are amazing!
Ever wanted to try indoor skydiving? iFly in Seattle can give you that experience! Or if you are feeling like being more connected, Vertical World is the perfect climbing experience.
For those of you afraid of heights, don’t worry, there are plenty of land and sea activities too. Sign up for the Seattle Cycling tour, Alki Kayak tours, Evergreen Escapes, or Ballard Kayak, just to name a few.
Washington is the best place to go for seafood (okay, maybe I’m biased), but you’ve got to give a shot! Plus, I will take you back to number 4, Washington has the original Starbucks – that includes the bakery.
When it comes to food trucks, I’d have to go ahead and say it again: Washington is the best. Go on an empty stomach and eat as much as possible, with no regrets!
From booze to nature, and everything in between, Washington has so many possibilities, just what any student or young professional needs in life!
