Go to the REI store, get hiking gear and start hitting trails you find on WTA.org. Seattle is a beautiful city. Very scenic. Summer is also a good time for kayaking and paddle boarding in lake union or lake Washington. I could recommend living in Queen Anne or some place close to lake union your first year to really enjoy experience the seattle life. Suburbs can wait

I second this recommendation

Go take a stroll through downtown, look at all the homeless and the crime that our state and city "leadership" is subjecting us to. Then take a drive around the state to appreciate the natural beauty of this amazing place. I recommend The Cascade Loop, really awesome road trip.
