You don't have to go far to adventure! This week, I hiked the Cross Kirkland Corridor directly from my office door! Did you know that this urban trail spans from Totem Lake to Bellevue and used to be an old railway?! Over the years, the city has improved this trail to make it what it is today - a nice quiet place for locals to get outside and experience nature. You can also connect to other small trails, like the Forbes Creek Stairs - which make for a great workout! I swear this is Kirkland's best-kept secret and I am so glad this beautiful place exists!

My goal each year is to transform the lives of 52 homeowners as I guide them through their home buying or selling experience. 

For every home sold, I donate $52 to Washington Trails Association in support of our aligned mission to protect the place we call home, the Pacific Northwest.

Have you been to Isarn in Kirkland? I had dinner there with one of my friends this week and it was absolutely delicious! At Isarn, you will find the freshest and fullest of flavors coupled with unique Thai cooking techniques to create the best dishes! They offer regional and street food favorites and even have a full vegan menu! With so many great options to choose from, we decided to share the Vegan fried rice which was made with with tofu, spring onions, tomatoes, cucumber, and broccoli. We also had a Vegan everything papaya Salad - Green papaya pounded with Thai rice noodles, bean sprouts, peanuts, garlic, tomatoes long beans, and lime dressing. If you are hungry for Thai food... Try Isarn!
