CITY INFORMATION

Over the years this city on the Pacific north west coast has become the home to Bill Gates, Microsoft, Starbucks and been the one place Frazier chose after downing his last in Boston. Built, like Rome, on seven hills, Seattle has grown into a sprawling city ever since grunge rock made the place cool back in the late 80s. But for once the architecture is stunning and whoever was responsible for the town planning deserves a drink in a bar of their choice. It's easy to get around in this young and hip town, the heritage has been lovingly cared for and there's room to breathe and relax amongst all the leafy parks and modern museums. Lots of culture and there's a well-established nightlife too – and you'll put on a stone in a week from all the places to eat.
