How much i like Seattle.

More than two years ago I woke up with the word Seattle on my lips. Out of context. Just one word. Why Seattle? Where is it ? What's it like? All these questions ran through my mind. I even didn't look it up on the map to make sure if it exists and where it exists. I simply forgot about it. The answer came a few months  later when  my friend had come to Moscow. It was winter just before Christmas. We met on the skating rink. After skating in the beautiful Gorkii park, we went to the nearby restaurant to have a nice dinner. There in the restaurant my friend told me that he lived in Seattle. I thought that was the answer. It was the end of 2005. Now it's 2008. I came to Seattle in March, 23.  And that's the real answer.

When the plane was landing I was surprised to see the roads free of traffic. It was my first positive impression. Since my arrival I have seen many other fabulous things. First of all it's beautiful nature  with its wide ocean and the mountains covered with snow. Huge forests and big lakes surround Seattle. And which is the most impressive, in all this beauty a wonderful city appears. It's quiet and busy at the same time, so it can meet any needs. 
People... They make me happy with their politeness. The fashion style is very different. Unique. 
 I can't help being happy  to be here.
