  • Let's take a summer drive downtown Portland together.
    A little blast from the past here for me and driving around my old stomping grounds. I used to live in south Portland and SW Portland. In the last 10 years since living in Portland, honestly not much has changed. Portland has a small town vibe and is still as weird as ever.
    Even my favorite food-carts are still in business around Portland State University. If you're lookin to visit Portland, NW 21st and 23rd is a good place to start for brunch, lunch, coffee or beer. Unique pop-ups have interesting goodies and forget-me-nots to take home after your wonderful trip to Portland.

    This really brings back a lot of memories. It also proves that the whole city isn't a burned out shithole, like the media would have you believe. Sure, Portland has some rough hoods, what big city doesn't? I really miss the bridges, the rivers, the beach, the gorge and the mountains. Portland pretty much has it all.

    Media describes Portland as a homeless and drug infested, dystopian ghost town... But WOW! This changed my perspective, what an absolutely gorgeous city. I'm certain it is troubled and riddled with issues. But at its core, the beauty is there! Truth prevails!

    • @ksvagabond
      @ksvagabond  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @khem3275 I totally agree. Any major city in America or the world is described negatively these days. It's not the truth (mostly). Especially Portland.

    Beautiful city! So green! I'm from Europe and was just wondering why are the traffic lights on the opposite side of the intersection? I have never seen this in Europe. Here they are always on the near side

    • @ksvagabond
      @ksvagabond  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Interesting. Not sure the reason for the traffic lights. Maybe just simply different infrastructure. I’m excited to drive in Europe next summer and see these near signals you speak of.

    • @christinamayers3234
      @christinamayers3234 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@ksvagabond Thanks for your answer. 🙂The only issue you might have with near side placements is that if you are the first car at a light and if you have stoped too close to the light it's a bit hard to see it. That's why the stop line is usually placed further back. Also at interesections with unprotected left turns the drawback is that when you wait at the middle for oncoming traffic you can't see when the light changes to amber since it's behind you.
      Personally I find the US setup better

    • @ksvagabond
      @ksvagabond  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @christinamayers3234 Those are great points. So long as everybody is driving safe and USING BLINKERS, then I'm cool with either way.
