  • San Francisco, located on the western coast of the United States, is a vibrant and culturally rich city that captivates visitors with its unique charm and stunning natural beauty.
    The city is renowned for its iconic landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, a magnificent suspension bridge that spans the entrance to the San Francisco Bay. The bridge's bright orange-red color and graceful design have made it an internationally recognized symbol.
    In this video, I walk through Lombard Street, a crooked street known for its flowers and scenery, to North Beach & Chinatown.

    Lombard Street is always advertised as the "crookedest" street in San Francisco, but actually that honor goes to Vermont Street in the Potrero Hill District. Vermont Street is the crookedest street in San Francisco and it's actually steeper than Lombard.

    Thanks Ken for taking me along in my moms hometown, San Fran. She's gone many years now and my regret is I did not ask more questions about San Francisco. I know she worked at Ghirardelli Chocolate factory. She went to Galileo High School and it it still there today as a working high school. I live 3 hours away and the big city never appealed to me.

      It's like she's never seen technology before. Weird reaction. I've had some really odd reactions from old people who can't grasp the concept of video. The conversations would go like this:
      OLD PERSON: "Are you taking pictures?"
      ME: "Nope, I'm producing a video."
      OLD PERSON: "Okay, I hope you get some good pictures."
      ME: "I'm not actually taking pictures, I'm recording video."
      OLD PERSON: _Stares at me with a confused, blank look_ "Okay, good luck with your pictures!"
      Those times I've been assigned to record videos of seniors, they'll pose motionless as if I'm taking pictures even though I told them like 3 times that I'm recording video, not taking pictures. Old people being so far out of touch with basic technology can really be frustrating and makes my job much more difficult.

    18:02 this building was damaged by a fire, TWICE! I worked in this building for years and there was a fire in December of 2012 or 13 or so that caused all the apartment tenants to move out. The upper floors were gutted and left burnt and vacant for years while a few restaurants and a liqour still operated on the ground level. On Saint Patrick’s day 2017 or 2018 there was a massive fire that damaged the building beyond repair.

    Looks like very little tourist right now in S.F., the street looks quiet and not many peoples walking compared few years ago. China Town and Italy Town sure quiet as well. There is lot of stores closed at China Town, Six or seven years ago I was S.F. every year, China Town always full of peoples but look at now, I wonder what happened.

    Never interrupt an Italian who is in the middle of a conversation. You asked that older Italian woman how she was while she was talking to those two people. Italians think that's rude to interrupt a conversation and that's why she looked at you like that and didn't respond to you. Wait till an Italian is done saying something to someone. She was telling those two people the history of the restaurant.
    I know these things because I'm Italian on my dad's side. He always told me to never interrupt someone talking to someone else because what that person is saying is important to him or her.
