Hi, I’m Andrea.

I’ve always been drawn to the things people pass without noticing. The unusual roadside attraction, the handmade sculpture in someone’s front yard, the forgotten piece of history hiding in plain sight.

What started as sharing my discoveries has grown into a curated map of curious places throughout Washington State.

Some are beautiful. Some are strange. Some tell important stories. Others simply make me smile.

I visit and document places whenever I can, research their stories, and welcome recommendations from people who notice wonderful things in their own communities.

Found Washington isn’t about checking off the most popular destinations. It’s about looking a little closer at the places around us.

If you love curious places, I’ve built a map just for you.
