Job/Location	Pacific Northwest You will be living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, where you can enjoy spectacular wilderness areas, scenic ocean beaches and crystal-clear lakes and rivers. Because of the Cascade mountain range, the Northwest has two distinct climates: The west side is lush and green. Eastern Washington and Oregon, shielded from the rain-filled clouds by the high mountains, tend to be sunny and arid.

And with 22 appellations, Washington and Oregon are also celebrated for their world-class wines. And what Northwest dinner would be complete without fresh salmon, crab or shellfish? No matter where you live in the Pacific Northwest, you will be within an easy drive to a thriving metropolitan area, offering fine shopping, theatres, museums and galleries.
