Coming Soon: new businesses opening up, growth & development

This post is to share my excitement for progress and advancement in my hometown, Bellevue, and also my other favorite city, the neighboring Seattle. There is a lot of construction going on in both cities. New, modern, and innovative buildings are being built for offices, retail, and apartments in both cities. 

Slowly but steadily, popular international retailers are finally opening stores in the Puget Sound such as Zara and Uniqlo. Talks of Aesop the renowned Australian skincare brand and Dutch clothing line, G Star Raw, are also planning on setting up shop sometime soon in Seattle. Local and new restaurants, boutiques, and housing are popping up everywhere. There truly is always room for growth.
  
According to the downtown Bellevue news network, years down the road a station for the monorail will be built in downtown Bellevue connecting to Seattle and making it easier for people to travel from the East side to Seattle. 

 The economic expansion and business growth in the Puget Sound is exciting to spectate. I can't wait to see the improvement and change. I hope for the same improvement and change to keep on happening with my own personal life. I'll make sure to update you guys in what's going on with me and some of my future goals. I will also write a post on why this blog even exists. Until next time then my friends! 

Keep in touch!

Post #2- These were the outfits I wore on my road trip! The weather was windier in San Fran and the warmest in Arizona. LA was decently warm and humid. The further inland and south I went on the coast, the warmer it got which meant less layers. 

This week I'll post a couple of old pics of outfit pictures I took from awhile back that I haven't yet shared. Also, I will upload a post on new businesses that are opening up around the Seattle and Bellevue area from what I've heard or speculated. I'll explain more in detail about the sources in the post. 

I hope you guys are having a great week! The weather is getting hotter and sunnier each day with less consecutive days of rain, yay! 

Anyways, I'll catch you guys up soon and keep you guys posted! Meanwhile, stay in the loop through my IG! From my pic of the dam I visited on Sunday to what I ate for breakfast yesterday- and soon what I'm gonna eat for lunch today, you can see what I'm doing instantly while i'm on the go! 

To give you guys a little tidbit of personal info, I'll definitely have a post about me showing my cousin around town since he will be visiting this week. Also, my grandma will be visiting my family and I from the motherland, overseas. But  by next week, I will have a mini city guide or tourist guide post from all the adventures I will have around the Puget Sound area with my cuz. Keep checking the blog for new posts and stories!

I'll see you guys soon.
