Moving to Bellingham - advice on meeting people, housing, etc.?

Hi!! I’m moving to Bellingham soon to start a job in May, and not gonna lie—I’m a little nervous about the transition. I’m a 24 y/o guy who loves the outdoors (which is why I’m really excited about the move) and I live a pretty active lifestyle.

Has anyone here recently moved to Bellingham? What was your experience like meeting people? Is there a younger crowd in their 20s? I’ve never been to Washington before, so I’m not too sure what the culture is like.

I’m also currently looking to rent a room, so if you have any advice on where to look that would be great!

COA beans

Hi all!

I was just wondering if any of you know how COA makes their beans, or what kind of bean they use! They are so good but I cannot rationally spend that much, and I’d like to make the homemade!!

Thanks in advance!
