Hi!

I’m a 35 year old female tattoo artist currently based in Los Angeles. I’m bisexual, very weird (covered in tattoos, into strange hobbies, kink friendly).

My parents live in the panhandle and they’re getting older and I’d like to move closer to them so I’m considering purchasing a house in Spokane. I’ve visited in passing a couple of times but have never been there through the lens of potentially becoming a resident.

I’d like to hear from fellow oddballs about what it’s like to live in Spokane! I’m spoiled by LA so I like queer events, kink events, alt art, alt music, fashion, interesting restaurants and bars, VERY geeky so love TCG, anime, video games, conventions. BUT I’m originally from Alaska so I’m also very into nature, fishing and the like so that part intrigues me greatly as well.

Two other questions I have are about the dating scene (I’m very single) - how is it, are there quality childfree people with good careers who have put it in the work on themselves?

AND I’d like to know more about the tattoo scene as this is my career. I’ve looked into some shops that are frankly very impressive but how is it out there, is it a burgeoning industry or is it just kind of mid?

Basically, I’d just love any and all insight y’all have for someone like me. Thank you!
