The implication for me was that it was odd since he worked in Bellevue at Unity's offices. If it's true that he worked in their Bellevue offices, Seattle is literally a 10-minute drive away.

Your points are definitely fair considerations, but even when I was working long hours at Microsoft's Redmond campus, I was very aware of what Seattle had to offer that I was missing out on.

It seems quite a shame that it took 6 years to discover the place next door. I'm glad he's discovered it now, though.
