You should! You should! My schedule is flexible.

This will be my...mmm...4th or 5th time in Seattle...maybe more. The friends I stay with live in Ballard, one is closer to downtown, and I am familiar with the busses and taxis. I've tried to manage once a year since my move to Japan.

What atmosphere I'm looking for? Well this is my once a year trip to my homeland where I get to speak ENGLISH all day long. Tourist stuff doesn't really appeal to me. Just being in the country does the trick and veg friendly food...and mexican food...and being able to communicate. I talk a lot when I get back.

I also experience random reverse culture shock. When I arrive, my friends do enjoy taking me directly to a supermarket or this one dinner with 6 or 12 egg omelets just for the joy of watching my brain melt.
