Neighborhood highlights

Samish Island is a unique community on a drive-on island 30 minutes south of Bellingham and minutes from the community of Bow-Edison. It lays in the quiet waters of Samish & Padilla Bays and is less than an hour from the Canadian/US Border from White Rock, B.C.; 1.5 hours north of Seattle, and 30 minutes northeast of Anacortes. People come here for winter birding, biking on the Samish and Skagit Flats, hiking in the Chuckanuts, kayaking, the Tulip Festival, for an eating extravaganza, curiosity shops, and artist galleries in Bow-Edison, or to launch an adventure into the North Cascades Mountains (1.5 hours). 1/2 mile away (10 min walk) is a great park and playground for the kids with a tennis court and basketball for the big kids!

My work: Moving Pictures Talent & Entertainment
Fun fact: 100% plant powered vegan
I represent actors in the film industry. I'm the airbnb Superhost of Samish Bay Cottage in Wa, USA. I'm a Canadian traveller who loves adventures with my wife and kids! My huge quest for knowledge is quenched by podcasts and audiobooks. I really enjoy a 2nd cup of coffee, working out, swimming, running to house music, film/TV, making music, discovering good chocolate, plant based dining and cooking - oh - and sleeping. Sleep is good ... zzz ...
