Sequim Town Blog About

What is Sequim Town Blog about?

Dear Sequim Town Blog visitors. Welcome to our 'Sequim Town Blog About' page. We decided to tell you a bit more about us and this blog than the short blogger profile glimpse on the side bar. Our blog title and description already told you the basic idea behind this blog:

'Sequim Town Blog is about Sequim Vacation: Sequim vacation rental, activities, events, festivals, golf, hiking, homes for sale, hotels, real estate, restaurants, vacation, weather on Olympic Peninsula WA'

Doesn't that sound like a big claim for a blog of two retirees who recently moved to Sequim and 'just' live there?! We totally agree but we had to come up with something to 'feed' the search engines with information about our blog. It will take us a long time to cover all the Sequim Town Blog issues and subjects we mention in our blog description.

Let's put it in a few more humble words. This is not another corporate website but a blog, a weblog about all aspects and facets about us 'Moving to Sequim' and our 'life in Sequim'. If you plan to relocate to Sequim, spend a monthly vacation in Sequim and see for yourselves before buying a lot or a home in Sequim.

Who are 'The Sequimers'?

We received several emails in the past asking us whether we are realtors in 'disguise'. To tell you the truth, we are not! We, the Sequimers Heidi & Keoki, are regular folks like all of you. We suppose the question is legitimate as we have the 'Sequim Home for Sale' ad on our page. We promised our friends Arlyne and Bill from Sun Meadows to support their efforts to sell their Sequim Home FSBO. We all know that commissions to realtors take a big chunk out of your sales revenue. Those two are seniors on a fixed income who intend to move to an assisted living home. Nothing wrong with helping them.

In addition, we mention Sequim real estate issues frequently because they play a major rule in this retirement town on the Olympic Peninsula, and we all know it. We will try to have Sequim realtors give our Sequim blog visitors a personal real estate market analysis about houses for sale in Sequim from time to time. It never hurts to know more, especially for people who move from California or Arizona or Hawaii, as we did, to Sequim.

What is the goal of Sequim Town Blog

When we decided to leave Hawaii at the end of 2005 and start our retirement life somewhere else around the globe, we started the biggest Internet research campaign we ever did but to be honest, that did not get us anywhere. In our first Sequim blog post we mentioned our consideration to choose Thailand, Costa Rica or New Zealand as retirement places.

The real input came from real people, friends and even guests at our Hawaii vacation cottages. First time when we heard 'Sequim', we did not pay much attention but when we repeatedly heard people raving about Sequim, we started the second phase of our research about Sequim.

We searched all kinds of search terms for Sequim: Sequim weather, Sequim homes for sale, Sequim real estate, Sequim vacation rentals and homes, Sequim life, Sequim town and more. Each time we learned more about this magical 'Sequim' what it means, how the word is pronounced, that there is little rain, that it has a blue hole and more. We got excited when we found blogs or sites from real people, not businesses which wanted to sell us something, but we appreciated people's ideas and experiences what it took to move to Sequim.

This is what this Sequim Town blog is about...our ideas and experiences in Sequim! We are pretty enthusiastic and optimistic in our Sequim articles (most of the time!) because we fell in love with Sequim. We like living here! Well, if you contemplate moving to Sequim, sign up by email for reading the next post. You may also sign up to our feed which is for the savvy Internet people. See both options on the sidebar above our Sewum weather logo.

Don't worry there won't be too many emails in your inbox. We like to do other things too. We love to go to SARC where Keoki is teaching his Easy Stretch Class (Mo + Wed 10:30am), bike the Olympic Discovery Trail, hike the Olympic Mountains, go on trips with our little motor-home and more. Taking care of our Hawaii sites HawaiiAffordable and Kohala CoastWeb + our Hawaii Blog does not leave much time to 'retired' life, which keeps us mentally and physically in shape.

We intend to tell people as much as we can about this town and life in Sequim. However, our blog visitors would like to hear from other people too, not just us. Please, join the discussions by commenting. Click 'leave a comment', sign in 'Name/URL' (if you have one, add it with htttp://, if you don't, leave URL blank) or 'anonymous' and write what you think. Let's make this a virtual meeting place for residents and Sequim visitors. We'd love to hear from you soon. Greetings from sunny Sequim.

p.s.

Last but not least, a recommendation for those who intend to move to Sequim. Do what we did! Come for a Sequim vacation and get a feel for the town, the area and the people. We promise you you want to come back for good!!!
