Bellingham, Washington. Which is covered in fir trees and diverse nature. I have been quite interested in Marketing methods and started researching the Olympics that will be hosted in Vancouver B.C. 50 minutes from where I work and Study at the local Western Washington University, in Downtown Vancouver.<br /><br />Many weekends out of the year we spend visiting Granville Ave and Downtown Vancouver for late night activities which are a great taste of a Seattle sized city. A step out of the U.S. gives you the opportunity to learn a new but similar culture and meet people from around the world.<br /><br />So maybe you understand the location but not the beauty of Bellingham. Here is a snap shot from the Bay.<br /><a href="http://www.mobiledataforce.com/ceoblog/uploaded_images/bellingham1-727395.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.mobiledataforce.com/ceoblog/uploaded_images/bellingham1-727395.jpg" width="288" border="0" height="374" /></a><br /><br />So the Winter Olympics are arriving in Vancouver B.C. in 2010 and I have a seeking suspicion that this city is going to grow very quickly. Expected Bellingham population growth is now said to increase by 30,000 in the next two years, from approximately 71,000 to +100,000. This is not even counting the tourist traffic that will be driven by the worlds largest sporting event.<br /><br />Also if i didn't describe to you how amazing the summers are then take a look.<br />You have two Lakes to choose from, Lake Whatcom<br /><a href="http://www.destination360.com/north-america/us/washington/mt-baker-ski.php"><img src="http://rodandsandra.com/image/Lake%20Whatcom.jpg" width="338" border="0" height="450" /></a><br /><br />and Lake Samish.<br /><a href="http://www.lakesamishtriathlon.com/240px-Lake_Samish.jpg"><img src="http://www.lakesamishtriathlon.com/240px-Lake_Samish.jpg" width="240" border="0" height="161" /></a><br /><br /><br />Again, 50 minutes away from my house is Mt. Baker which currently holds the North American World record snowfall in 1998.....1,140 inches of fluffy goodness!<a href="http://www.wta.org/go-hiking/photos/hike-of-the-week/Artist%20Point%20Matt%20Leber.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.wta.org/go-hiking/photos/hike-of-the-week/Artist%20Point%20Matt%20Leber.jpg" width="432" border="0" height="369" /></a><br /><br />What I am finally trying to sum up, is the reality that this paradise is completely hidden. So as the next two years begin, I am very interested to see the population and economic growth that takes place.<br /><br />I have said for some time now that I believe Washington and Bellingham have the potential to become the new refuge for California-lites.<br /><br />So, now all we have to do is wait and see if the 2010 Olympics and well known Marketing tactic will bring new Bellingham residents and visitors.<br /><br />Hope to see you soon :) Ciao Ciao<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3712782154937386822-5450039734165593410?l=marketyourlife.blogspot.com'/></div>Luciano Maurohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06984357989768589761noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3712782154937386822.post-28443916853387351412008-08-19T21:56:00.000-07:002008-08-26T14:29:29.668-07:00<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/L6Cuq-BueEs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/L6Cuq-BueEs&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3712782154937386822-2844391685338735141?l=marketyourlife.blogspot.com'/></div>Luciano Maurohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06984357989768589761noreply@blogger.com0
