You can still visit zoos and aquariums via virtual programs
At a time when we can't visit zoos and aquariums in person, technology gives us incredible ways to connect with wildlife and nature, as we are temporarily transported away from our couches.
Corinne Whiting, Seattle Local Expert
About Corinne
Corinne hails from the other Washington, where she caught the travel bug early on. Corinne studied abroad in Strasbourg, France (undergrad) and in Edinburgh, Scotland (graduate school). She's backpacked around Australia, taught English in Argentina and explored (so far!) countries from Cambodia and Egypt to Turkey and China.
Corinne served as associate editor at Where magazine for five years; as a freelancer, she now writes for publications like National Geographic Traveler and Amtrak's OnTrak. Here in the lovely Northwest, she's attempting to debunk the rain myths, up her coffee and live music quotient and find her Zen near/on the water.
Special Interests
Corinne knows a lot about:
- International travel
- Washingtons (city & state)
- Live music
Corinne's Special Recommendations for Seattle
Corinne says, "Don't leave Seattle without enjoying a stroll on the sands of Golden Gardens beach, preferably with a latte in hand."
