I ended up in Bellingham by chance. I knew nothing about the city, but since I had never been, I figured I might as well go. The state of Washington has a special place in my heart; I’d love to explore every part of it some day. I was was on my way to San… Continue reading Bellingham, Washington // Photo Diary
