Hi there Seattle friends, quick break from Jimothy-ing to ask- are there any film photobooths in Seattle?

Like this: https://www.instagram.com/p/DOd8asaCImu/?igsh=dmF6bWYwNmM0c2l5

Ideally one without any branding.

Thanks so much!

EDIT: found someone who documented a bunch of photo booths around Seattle- absolutely iconic.

My grandmother passed away recently, leaving her house in North Seattle. It's still filled with all of her stuff, which is a lot. I do not live in Washington and it would probably take me over a month to do everything on my own.

Are there any services in the North Seattle area that can help with house clean-outs? This includes all furniture, clothing, etc. I'd love to donate stuff if possible but just need help actually getting it out of the house and finding somewhere for it.

can somebody recommend an apartment complex that has mfte and/or not more than $1650 studio/ 1br.

open to recommendations for neighborhoods to look into. i'm currently in shoreline and im unsure about renewing my lease; i'd love to move a bit into the city.

priority: safety & garage parking. would be nice to have elevator and w/d but i can live without. easy access to light rail is also a plus!

My husband, myself and my mom (who I take care of) are relocating here from Tampa Bay, FL. He will be working at the airport. Looking to rent for the first year and need at least 3bed/2bath place to rent. The highest our budget would allow is $3000. Does not need to be furnished and we will have pets. We are used to driving and a 35-45 minute commute. Also, if anyone can speak to using the ferry or light rail with the commute, that would help us too as we are not used to having any type of public transportation being from Tampa. What would be the best neighborhoods to look at? My only priority is somewhere safe.

Edit: He does shift-work so he would be traveling at non-conventional times. I’m currently a LPN who will be working towards my RN so I’m not concerned about my commutes as I’m used to driving and dealing with heavy traffic at peak times.

I am 41M without dependents currently going through a crazy abusive situation and I need to find freedom soon. Maybe Seattle is next?

I am from Georigia and thought about using a once in a lifetime opportunity to start a new life in Washington. In Seattle in particular since i have a family friend that lives there. I spoke to administrators at Washington state university for career building opportunities back in 2020.

The family friend and I together in the south and have always remained in contact. For years He said, all I have to worry about is getting there and he has a room for me. I thought it was nice gesture but it may soon become a reality.

It will give me an opportunity for a fresh start and explore something different.

I tried restarting in Georgia after living in Wisconsin for 9 years. I had to deal with the pandemic, divorce, job less, car repo. I decided to move back down to Atlanta with my mother to rebuild with her permission.

However, hand dealing with her demonic behavior. She has been doing everything to sabotage my success and it is wearing me down after these past 6 months. Out of the blue she wants $800 a month for a room or wants me out. She current is trying to illegally evict me and blocked the internet, doing laundry, assaulted me many times. I could press charges, but I am ready to go.

I reached out to some nearby resources. I told the case workers my story and they are willing to put me either in an extended stay for a week or purchase a one way flight to the family friend in Seattle. Another option was to stay at a nearby shelter for up to 30-days. Some considered looking to pad split.

For income,I've been only donating plasma for income and used the EBT for food. A few friends have donated money for the cause.

So let's say I transition to Seattle.

A friend of my suggest that would be a great idea considering how much hell I've gone through since being her. My greatest concern is finding a housing or shelter and the job market. I bring housing just in case its not ideal to live with a friend.

I have over 15+ years experience IT, teaching, soccer coaching, and served in AmeriCorps. I also taught ESL in South Korea. I have a bachelors in MIS and masters in administrative leadership - adult, continuing, and higher education administration. My goal was to work in international higher education, and/or ed tech.

I love living by a large body of water, asian, mexican food. Fishing, hiking, soccer, and going to the theatre, reading a good book. I thrive in a diverse environment. The only thing I was told is that it can get cold there and it rains a lot. My goal is not to make Seattle my permanent home but It could my new anchor.

There are many universities there but I am hoping it is not challenging to find a position out there.

I just need peace and safe environment to move forward but I do not have any clue about Seattle and resources I could use to get back on track with my life.

Help a man out that is down on his luck!

Thank you

Hi all! I’m making a kind of last min trip to Seattle to see Mt Rainer on August 13th. It’s been our dream to see Mt Rainier and all its sights. I felt like it’d be the perfect place to do a surprise proposal.

The special day is August 13th so it’s coming up soon. Does anyone have any suggestions or referrals? I’ve tried to reach out to some photographers I’ve liked but they are all booked up.

Very specific question, I know. But due to very specific circumstances, I have over $500 in Dunkin gift card credit I need to use and I heard that you can use them at some Baskin Robbins.

My first choice obviously would be to use it at Dunkin but seems like there's zero locations in a 200 mile radius of Seattle.

Does anyone know if Baskin Robbins locations nearby take Dunkin credit?

The other night my boyfriend and I wanted to go out on a dinner date. I typically go through Google reviews or Yelp recommendations, but I realized I’m probably missing out on some great small businesses that tend to be overlooked or don't have a massive marketing budget.
We are looking for independent, small business restaurants in the Seattle metro area that could really use the extra love and foot traffic right now. Times are tough for neighborhood spots, and we want to bring our money to places that actually need it rather than major restaurant groups.

hi, staying in Capitol Hill and would like some recommendations for fun. it could be anything, this city is also incredibly beautiful and would appreciate spots with beautiful views. went to Bainbridge yesterday, it was awesome. nothing too touristy plz, thank you!!!!!

Like the title says, I’m curious if there are any parks or public spaces that have an ideal setup for lounging in a hammock ie decently spaced trees that could withstand the weight? Just chilling and reading a book for an hour or so, not like encampment vibes fwiw

Hi everyone! My husband and I are moving up from Texas soon, and we are very excited. However, we have been struggling to identify a neighborhood to live in, as he will be working in downtown Seattle and I will be working in Woodinville.

Currently, we are considering Kirkland vs Seattle. If commuting were not a factor, we would both prefer to live in Seattle proper, as we love the city/urban life and it would be closer to his work (I worry that he’ll face more traffic going towards downtown). However I’m wondering if the commute to Woodinville will be gnarly for me? Google Maps tells me that the commute from the north cap hill/Montlake areas are 25-30 minutes during rush hour, and wondering if this is realistic or if that’s an underestimate. We’d each be okay with up to a 30-40 minute driving commute but ideally no more than that.

Thank you guys so much!

Additional info about us:
-Our housing budget is up to $5,000 per month, and we are looking to rent not buy.

-We are in our early 30s, no kids, just 1 small dog.
We prefer a neighborhood where it would be easy to meet other people around our age. Our ideal Saturday night is dinner, drinks with friends (we don’t have many there and are nervous about feeling isolated), hanging out with our dog.

-We both have cars but if we’re in Seattle proper my husband would consider taking the light rail to work if accessible. We are also totally ok with one of us taking the 520 bridge to commute even with the tolls.

-We would like to be near a grocery store, coffee shops, restaurants, parks or trails. Dog-friendly spaces, decent parking, and reasonable commutes are also important.

Craving that post World Cup soccer community. Is anyone aware of active Milan supporter groups or more generally spots where they show Serie A matches? I tried looking into the Milan Club - Pacific Northwest. From what I can tell they don't look super active and don't have any info about meet-ups posted.

Newest post seemed to be about two months ago that I found and I didn't want to necro.

We're seriously considering relocating our family from the Portland area to the Seattle metro, and I'd love some advice from people who actually live there.

We're a household of six adults with experience in healthcare and warehousing/logistics. We're looking for a fresh start and are trying to figure out where to focus our job and housing search.

Our priorities are:

• Safe neighborhoods
• Good public transportation (we may only have one vehicle at first)
• Access to healthcare and warehouse/manufacturing jobs
• More affordable suburbs rather than living in downtown Seattle

Career-wise:

• I'm working toward becoming a Patient Advocate and am currently looking for medical office/patient services opportunities.
• My oldest is interested in the MA/CNA path.
• My husband and son both have extensive warehouse and forklift experience.

We're hoping to narrow our search before making a scouting trip. We've looked at places like Lynnwood, Shoreline, Everett, Kent, Federal Way, and Tacoma, but we'd really appreciate hearing from locals.

If you were in our shoes, which areas would you recommend looking at and are there any you'd avoid?

Thanks so much! We really appreciate any advice.

It’s been awhile and I’m hoping to get some friends together and do a river float before summer is over.

What are the best rivers to do a float on? Starting and stopping points? Any pro tips on parking, drop offs/pick ups, float configurations, best times, accessories/food/drink to bring along, etc.?

Somewhere in King County would be nice, but I’m open to driving a little bit for a nice float.

Looking for recommendations for pediatric dentists to take my 11 month old to. Preferably in the city or south of the city (Renton/burien/federal way) but willing to drive north for a great Dr. we have delta dental insurance

Also it may be kind of niche/crunchy but I’m skeptical of dentists who are quick to pull children teeth claiming there “isn’t enough room”.

Wife and I are visiting in September and looking at reservations. Currently between Kakurenbo and ShoMan. Thoughts? Any other places to look at? TY!!

I'm supposed to see The Odyssey tomorrow night (July 23) at SIFF Downtown but I won't cross a walkout or buy chocolate popcorn from scabs. Has there been any progress on their bargaining agreement? Should I just plan to stay home tomorrow?

I'm looking for someone who offers private beginner tennis lessons for my spouse and me in the Lake Forest Park or North Seattle area. I've done some Googling but haven't had much luck finding the right fit. If you have any recommendations, I'd really appreciate them. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys! I am looking to sell some handmade goods somewhere in person and am looking to see if you guys know of any good spots!

Hi everyone, I will be visiting Seattle in January and heading to Vancouver from there.

I am wondering whether to catch the bus or the train as I have seen conflicting opinions in this subreddit..my main concerns are last minute cancellations or the trip will end up taking way longer than its scheduled to as I am planning to leave Seattle early morning to get to Vancouver with enough time to explore as I will only be in Vancouver for that day before leaving to somewhere else.

Im deciding between the Amtrak Train or the Amtrak, Quickshuttle, Greyhound or Flix Bus but open to other companies! Looking for any advice based on anyones past experiences! Thanks!

Sounds stupid but do any businesses or restaurants have them installed? its obviously new to me and I have to convince my SO who is against them

I’m looking for a half day, overall, tour of Seattle. I know I cannot see everything, but if I take a tour, I’ll know the next day where I want to go by myself. Thank you.

Looking for some apartment recs with base rent up to $3500. I am moving with my partner and we are planning to move November/December. We would prefer a 2 bedroom but are open to a 1 bedroom or a 1 bedroom with a den type of situation as long as there is ample closet space! We are in our later 20s so neighborhoods with vibes like SLU or Queen Anne would be ideal.

Mostly concerned with having parking, something that is pet friendly, and safe!

Hi All,

Partner and I are debating between coming to visit for the first time on either Halloween weekend or Flying up Black Friday and then returning the following Mon/Tues. We are also pretty flexible on dates overall though.

We are from San Francisco so cold, fog, rain, etc are no problem, but I would be remiss if I didnt get local opinions on the differences in weather at those times.

As for things to do we love nature, weird off the beaten path type things, good locally owned restaurants (I treat the Michelin list as a list to avoid, she is less of a cynic when it comes to fine dining if that helps for restaurant recs)

What are come cool events that happen around those times? We really want to make our limited time count. So please if you dont mind letting us know your opinions, favorites, etc we would love to have them to plan our trip!

Best

Hear me out; I’m looking for a studio apartment in Seattle area. My work place is in Kent and yes I’ll be driving back and forth everyday. I’ve seen studios range between 1300-1600 and I wanna keep it to that range. Any suggestions and recommendations are appreciated!
