A Day In Seattle
If you have a day (or a weekend) to spend in Seattle, these are my top 8 recommendations for solo travelers who want to get their fix of the Pacific Northwest!
MoPop Seattle’s Fantasy Land!
A fantasy exhibit at the Museum of Popular Culture in Seattle has me enthralled! Definitely one for the bucket list, you can pet a dragon, take photos on a throne, check out weaponry from Lord of the Rings and see costumes from the likes of Harry Potter and more!
Suspended in a Vampire’s Lair
Is it a coincidence I was watching “Dracula” – the 2020 drama-horror Netflix television serial developed by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, when I ended up in Seattle and found this exhibit which is all about cinematic terror and the unsettling emotions it brings about in us (and which we love, apparently). Take a peek inside MoPop, Seattle’s art museum exclusively dedicated to all things pop culture and their infamous “Scare Exhibit”, not for the faint of hearted!
A Technicolor Experience at MoPop Seattle
Take an intergalactic journey as you explore iconic sci-fi artifacts.

Wells’ The War of the Worlds, from big-budget Men in Black to the Philip K. Dick-inspired Blade Runner to the Battlestar Galactica series.

Staying in an Aristocrat’s Palace in Poland
In Poland’s ‘Old Town’, leading away from the market square, is The Grand Hotel – tucked away on a cobblestone street. When it first opened, it was the most luxurious hotel in town. I write about its 65 antique-filled rooms as I notice how many Polish films and series are making an appearance on American streaming services, and reflect on this specific hotel’s majesty and beauty. After all – it was once home to a Polish aristocrat! Enjoy.
