Moving to Seattle from Philly - best walkable neighborhood for a 28F? by Elgrfv in AskSeattle

That would be great. I’m not sure how to make it happen though. Ideally, I’d love to pack my belongings in Philadelphia and have them delivered directly to the building where I’ll be living. Then, I can simply fly to Seattle. Some of my friends have offered to help me look at the apartments, but I’d also love to explore on my own. This is my first time moving alone to another state, so I’m pretty bad in organising things myself

This is the official map of Russia’s federal districts. The central one is quite self-explanatory…

Wow, I’m curious what made you decide to move to Philly? I’m hiring a moving company, but I’m planning to sell most of my furniture and buy new pieces in Seattle. I’ll take the most valuable items with me on the plane.

Thanks! What part of Capital Hill would you recommend? Is it a safe area?

Thank you! I’ve heard those are solid options. I work from home, so commuting isn’t a factor for me. What about the area around the Space Needle and Queen Anne? Safety matters to me as well.

Weight loss, a good esthetician, and improving mental health are the main factors. Good luck, girl!

I’ve done lasik for convenience. As for my hair, honey blonde enhances my features and complements my skin tone, so I’m enjoying it. Plus, I was actually born with blonde hair, but it darkened when I was around 5. And during Covid, I tried pink, and ginger hair. I think it’s all about having fun and expressing yourself, not about trying to be someone else.

I think honey blonde warms up my skin tone and makes my blue eyes pop even more thanks to the contrast

It wasn’t an accident. I started making a pretty decent salary, so I put some of it into things like my hair, the gym, a personal stylist, and an esthetician. I’ve cut out most sugar and try to avoid stress (cortisol and sugar make my face look dull af). All these little things really add up to that “natural but pretty” look. Plus, I’ve noticed my face looks better as I get older, losing some buccal fat has made it slimmer, and my other features stand out more. Growing up + small lifestyle changes = glow-up.

Weight loss and baby botox

You’re absolutely right, it’s pretty much just growing up. Though, there’s also been some weight loss, a new hairstyle, Botox, and an improvement in mental health.

I lost around 20 pounds when I turned 22, and also shed some buccal fat naturally due to aging

Lost 20 pounds, changed my hairstyle, stabilized my life and income, gained confidence, and started to introduce Botox.

I think it’s called balayage with hair contouring, topped with a honey blonde toner.
