I'm visiting Oregon in early June. I live in Ohio which is a long ways away. My aunt and uncle live in Oregon so we got an airbnb to stay at for a couple days. I needed to watch this video to get ideas on what to do when I visit there. I'm pretty excited! Not all the comments hating on the way you say Oregon 😂like it's not that serious
That’s great, I hope you have a great trip - Oregon is a beautiful state with lots to see and do! And I appreciate what you said about my pronunciation lol, I’m from Michigan so I wasn’t as familiar with the right way to say it
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! My apologies about the mispronunciation - growing up in the midwest, that's how I always heard the state pronounced. Portland is certainly a beautiful and wonderful city
@@WanderlustWellman Hi, I'm another Portlander and while the Or-e-gone pronunciation also drove me crazy, this is a really good video! I think you really highlighted a lot of what this area has to offer and I'm glad you had a good time here. You're welcome back any time and next time you'll know how to say Oregon. Cheers!
@@aaronyoung8836 My bad on the pronunciation, I promise you that I've been alerted many times on my mispronunciation of your state since my videos have been posted haha! I'm glad you liked the video, I was blown away by Portland and was so excited to share my favorite things I experienced there. Looking forward to coming back soon!
@@WanderlustWellman You all got it wrong, it's Porkland, Whoregone... land of fat perjuring and racketeering pigs in a state where all the moral prostitutes have gone to work for the parasite state.. Watch out for badged road pirates London Westerlund and Eric Thorsen.. They'll state-rape you, and they'll state-rob you.. zero conscience, psychotic tendencies, and the amazing ability to bold-faced lie in court.
we're staying in Portland in a couple of weeks and looking forward to the nature hikes, beach locations and Portland itself and the great food, coffee and brewery/beer spots!
You should definitely be excited, don't mind all the comments hating on Portland lol. It definitely has its issues, but the food/nature you can experience in Portland is WORLD CLASS (in my opinion). Have an amazing trip!
Glad you liked the video! I have definitely learned the correct way to pronounce Oregon from TH-cam comments haha, if I make another Oregon video in the future I'll be sure to get it right!
thanks, I'm going to Portland tomorrow. So I'm going to do some of these things to do! Definitely the Rose Garden. I'm going to visit my aunt and uncle and some of my cousins. I haven't been here since 1991 when I was 21,so I'm really excited.
By all means come to Oregon, there is so much to do here. But being #2 in the US for car theft and having a 50/50 chance of getting your car window smashed, staying in downtown Portland is not a good idea. There are lots of nice places to stay just outside the city limits.
Great presentation! I'm from the San Francisco Bay area and there are so many parallels and similarities to portland. We even have that Salt and Straw ice cream shop in SF. So, is Portland, SF/Oakland's cousin or sibling?
@@e621_ No worries, the demand from even the liberal public is becoming so loud that the local and state politicians will need to clean up the streets. Hell, I just watched them tow two cars that were being used as homes. The Supreme Court has changed the game. As always, it just takes time and funding.
Great recommendations and great content! Thanks for visiting our city. I will definitely need to check out Kate's ice cream cuz i've never heard of that spot actually, next time you're in town you gotta try the amazing custard based ice cream of Fifty Licks. So good!
@@WanderlustWellman I might visit in May at the very latest before the thicket of the tourist season during the summertime. I had always wanted to visit the International Test Rose Garden.
@@WanderlustWellman You can't be serious or you have never been anywhere else. I was just there. It's a crime ridden toilet. You really need to get out more.
"Ora.. gone"??? 🧐how dare you sir 😂 I am planning to leave the Portland area soon, so trying to get some ideas of things to do before I go. I've done most of these, Japanese garden is a nice spot for sure. I haven't visited many of the food trucks in a while, mainly because of how bad things were getting downtown. Might check out Doe donut, that looked tasty.. I live close to a Voodoo shop and tbh not a big fan. I think I'm going to check out OMSI this weekend, I haven't been since I was in HS haha. Nice vid!
Great video! I am going there again to visit next month. This will be my second time in Portland. Any new suggestions ? Restaurants ? What would be the must see and do?
Thank you so much! That's great to hear, I hope you have a good trip. For restaurant recommendations, I recommend that you check out my Portland food video! All of my suggestions at this moment in time are in this video
You forgot to mention Lincoln City which is about an HR drive from Portland, Lincoln City has gorgeous beaches and the drive from Portland is only 80 miles.
Thank you so much for the recommendations! My husband and I will be visiting soon. What did you put on the GPS to head to the Oregon Coast? I would love to visit that area you went. It looks amazing!!
No problem, thanks for watching! And it really depends on what you want to see. If you want to do some of the gorgeous hikes along the coast then I would type in Ecola State Park. If you want to check out the coastal towns then I would try Cannon Beach for starters. Have a good visit!
There is no life in Porkland.. just joyless tax slaving existence for the fun and profit of our parasite state slave masters. Come for the views.. stay for the state rape and tax racket at the hands of badged terrorists, perjurers and racketeers.. Watch out for our cops.. they're rabid, rhoid raging road pirates.. Especially officers London Westerlund and Eric Thorsen.. these humanoid bags of excrement have no problem fabricating evidence, theatening bodily harm, or boldface lying in court. Please don't flag.. I'm exercising my one and only freedom as a Ukrainian tax slave of the "united" slaves of a-holes.
Videos like this make me rethink moving to a California city for university! I currently live in corvallis and I always feel like there isn't much to do. I didn't realize Portland had so much. I do hate the gloomy weather in these areas though.
Well I'm sure California cities have a ton to see and do as well, plus sunnier weather! I guess it just depends on your preferred scenery and overall vibe.
I grew up in Eugene and now live in downtown LA. The weather here rocks, and there is a TON of things happening here. When I lived in Portland and Seattle I felt like I was missing out on the global action happening in SF and LA. I’ll end up back in the PNW eventually… It is still “home” in my heart.
I hope you have the best possible visit! I recommend spending a good amount of time outside of the downtown area, as I showed in the video. Safe travels!
hello my friend! i am new suscriber and i am here to full watched your video :D what a beautiful view and amazing foods.. i really enjoyed watching.. thank you for sharing great video and lets stay connected! i will always looking forward to it. +1 suscribed and liked !! see you in next video :D
Portland had a net loss 18,200 residents from 2020 to 2022, making it the 6th fastest shrinking city in the nation. No doubt it will lose more this year. People don't flee desirable places. Portland was great 10 or 20 years ago. Now it is becoming Detroit 2.0 due to moronic woke policies, lawlessness and a dying downtown. All the good foodie places aren't going to make up for that.
10 things to do in Portland: 10 - walk around in public nude 9 - get your car broken into and stuff stolen 8 - get in an argument with a stranger 7 - get into a fight with a stranger 6 - sidewalk camping 5 - contract a disease 4 - pick up trash 3 - open defection 2 - drugs in public 1- leave immediately
I swear, do people do anything other than eat when they travel? Like what a waste of an experience to spend most of the time just shoveling sugar down your gobs. Oh, I'm sorry. Can't forget all the "gardens" too, mustn't not see all the same exact frickin' plants over and over again.
@Mihaela I grew up there and watched as the tent cities slowly started taking over every patch of grass next to the roads. I've worked in businesses while a random guy is urinating on the front window. I've been threatened by random lunatics who thought I was following them when I just got off of work. The police don't show up to deal with crime, but they will definitely pull me over 7 times in 3 months for no discernable reason. My family forked over more than half our income just for rent in some of the worst parts of town. We couldn't save. The daily crime was getting out of control. The city was literally watching us because somebody complained that we were always doing repairs on our cars, so of course they had time and resources for that. Thankfully, we managed to get out before the riots, and everyone I talk to that moved out of there after I left has told me things have just gotten worse.
Just finished the video, like I said. Moves way to fast, shots of sites are so short you blink and you miss it. You do not show you besides eating donuts enjoying the area. SLOW DOWN, we want to see the sites but we also want to see you enjoying the sites to make us want to go. Quit speed talking during the narration. It's like you just want to get out of it, just give the facts as fast as you can and stop. Just my FYI !!! Sorry if I offend you, just trying to help. Love to see you guys make it. Think you do have the right stuff. Best of luck !!!!! Now onto watching you stuff that is more recent than 2 yrs ago.
OK, I have just watched 2 dozen you tube about Oregon since we are going sept.28, 2024. I like yours the best because you look like you like the places you went, like normal people. Do have some downfalls of the video. Not about you as narrator, but other things. # 1 : Get a better back stop beside a blank white wall behind you, so sterile. # 2 : You change photos so fast nobody can see what you are showing. Most last like 2 seconds. Show like at least 10 second clips of what you want to show. Or at least show a video clip of what fun is is to be there. Pictures are a dime a dozen. You guys seem better than that. # 3 : Slow down your narration, you talk way to fast. Explain why people should go there slowly, how beautiful it is. Fell passionate about what you are saying instead of trying to CRAM what would be a 15 or 20 minute video into 10 minutes. I don't mind watching a 20 minute video if it has love for he area, some history and good video. You guys are on the right path. With that said, I am going to watch some future videos to see what you have. Like I said, half a video and I like you.

Great video, however being from here the only real distraction was your mispronunciation of Oregon “Or-e-gun”. Thanks for sharing our beautiful city.

Every video I've looked up on oregon someone is bitching about someone not pronouncing something correctly

Planing to go visit this places for my birthday 🎂
That's awesome, I hope you have a great trip!
This is the best tour guide for me to know Portland after I browsed several channels. Thank you so much 🌹🎉🎊
Thanks so much, I’m glad you found my guide helpful!
#Deeping #Avocado
Wonderful!
I am traveling with my mother who has difficulty walking? Do you know if a lot of these parks etc offer wheelchairs? Thank you!
thanks, I'm going to Portland tomorrow. So I'm going to do some of these things to do! Definitely the Rose Garden. I'm going to visit my aunt and uncle and some of my cousins. I haven't been here since 1991 when I was 21,so I'm really excited.
How exciting, hope you have a great trip! Thanks for checking out my video 😁
How do I find that area of the Columbia River Gorge at 6:01?
That's Punchbowl Falls, which you can find on the hike via Eagle Creek.
Thank you this is the best vedio I saw explaining what to see in Portland❤
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me!
That includes avoiding the homeless right?
Good luck with that. 🤯
Is that even possible?
good luck with that, im a camper and they keep sweeping me, ive basically camped everywhere in this city, u cant avoid us.. hahaha
i smelled the rose i like that one the best! the red one
That's great!
Thank you for share this beautiful places. Your editing is very amazing. Thank you for the great scenes.
Thanks so much for the comment, I really appreciate it!
Great video! We are heading there in late October.
That's awesome, the weather should be great in October I imagine. I hope you have a great trip, thanks for watching!
By all means come to Oregon, there is so much to do here. But being #2 in the US for car theft and having a 50/50 chance of getting your car window smashed, staying in downtown Portland is not a good idea. There are lots of nice places to stay just outside the city limits.
Which Voodoo Donuts location is better for avoiding a crowd?
Voodoo Doughnut - Davis
Great video! What date did you go to the rose garden? It was in full bloom, amazing!!
Thanks so much! We went in August last year actually, it was brutally hot
Great presentation! I'm from the San Francisco Bay area and there are so many parallels and similarities to portland. We even have that Salt and Straw ice cream shop in SF. So, is Portland, SF/Oakland's cousin or sibling?
Thank you so much! And that's a really interesting observation, I would love to come to the Bay area and visit to see for myself:)
#11 - put up a tent in front of a store downtown.
Oh its " cleaned up " now 🙄
@@Azazel2024 no, i am a camper and they stil l have not removed me.
im under the banfield
@@e621_ No worries, the demand from even the liberal public is becoming so loud that the local and state politicians will need to clean up the streets.

LMAOOO
Looks like an amazing place to be a foodie! But we may not have room for anything else after the artisan ice cream
It definitely is, and yes the ice cream was definitely filling
Great recommendations and great content! Thanks for visiting our city. I will definitely need to check out Kate's ice cream cuz i've never heard of that spot actually, next time you're in town you gotta try the amazing custard based ice cream of Fifty Licks. So good!
Thanks so much, I appreciate your comment! And I'll look into Fifty Licks!
Nice content. Enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
how many days was this trip? and where did you all stay at?
I think it was 2 nights/3 full days. We stayed near the Buckman area, which we thought was a solid location with a rental car
I might go to Portland for spring break as I’ve always wanted to visit the Pacific Northwest.
Highly recommend it! It's probably my favorite area of the country
@@WanderlustWellman I might visit in May at the very latest before the thicket of the tourist season during the summertime. I had always wanted to visit the International Test Rose Garden.
@@WanderlustWellman You can't be serious or you have never been anywhere else. I was just there. It's a crime ridden toilet. You really need to get out more.
I thought you would eventually say oaks amusement park. I would do all the hikes in the future. And etc. thanks for the video.
Thanks for checking out the video, and I appreciate the suggestion!
@@WanderlustWellman Your Welcome! Thanks for commenting back!
Great video! My fiancé and I are planning a trip in late April so we’ll keep this video and your recommendations handy! Thanks!

Can you fly a drone at any of the waterfalls that you mentioned?
You definitely can't fly one at Multnomah Falls

Yeah.. give this dump of a town as wide a berth as you can.. but hey.. if you're set on it.. we can always use another robbery or murder victim..
me too! gonna be there in couple of days!
What is the name of the mo7ntain you hiked around andAbout how long did it take to complete it
It was the Eagle Creek Trail to Punchbowl Falls, I would estimate it takes about 2 hours or so out and back
@@WanderlustWellman thank you
The new voodoo donuts location is still in Portland, just on the east side. 0:51
Thanks for you recomending travel guide
Thanks for watching!
You forgot to mention Lincoln City which is about an HR drive from Portland, Lincoln City has gorgeous beaches and the drive from Portland is only 80 miles.
I see, I've never been there but I would like to visit :)
My vote would be for 1-10 leaving Portland...
F off. You’re not welcome
Here
Eagle creek is my favorite hike in the gorge. Check out Pine State Biscuit next time you're here
I can understand why, Eagle Creek was unreal. And I'll add it to the list!
Hi, great video, there are lots of nice activities there. Very good. Thanks. Greetings Alex
Thanks a lot, I agree! Greetings to you, Alex
I just need to know where your girl got the Zucchini Bread and Apple Cider donut from?? LOL
It was a restaurant called "Doe Donuts", and they are SO DELICIOUS :)
I've never been to Portland, but I"ll def keep these in mind before I make it there!
Ah well I definitely recommend visiting at some point! Thanks for watching 😁
In Portland now … it a must travel
I agree!
Nice and beautiful captions amazing video thanks for sharing 👌
Thanks so much!

Not to my knowledge!

@@WanderlustWellman no the fuck it doesnt
Everyone is leaving and the city is taken over by a drug and crime epidemic, look at the news and go there

Why's that?
@@WanderlustWellmanhe’s a conservative and doesn’t like progressive cities
@@cat_luver16 it’s the biggest dump of a city I’ve ever been to lol 😂
Kind of curious where you're from, I've never heard Oregon pronounced that way before
😂 I’m from Michigan, a lot of people in the Midwest mispronounce Oregon apparently
Do Bend Next
I've never been to Bend before, but I would love to visit someday!
With the exception of the waterfall, everything was just eating and drinking.
I'm going this weekend and staying downtown - hopefully the homeless and other urban problems won't be too much of a distraction.
I hope you have the best possible visit! I recommend spending a good amount of time outside of the downtown area, as I showed in the video. Safe travels!

Was there early 2022 , the streets are worse than skid row LA area it’s nuts
But its " progressive " and lgbtqlmnop freindly
I keep to myself
Love your video best!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks
lets all take a shot for everytime we hear "guys"
Great video, but there is one problem: You are now wanted in the state of Oregon for mispronouncing the name.
Haha yeah no kidding, wanted dead or alive based on the comments below 😂
this dude looks like boomhauer from king of the hill
Thanks (I suppose) haha
So, 4/10 are food related, 3/10 seeing waterfalls, and 1 is not even Portland? Quiet the list huh? Excited to visit Portland....
Ora gone is wrong. It is ory gun.
if he says or-e-gone one more time my ears are gonna fall off
If I dont talk to you alot its just becasue I am reserved
10 things to do in Portland:
10 - walk around in public nude
9 - get your car broken into and stuff stolen
8 - get in an argument with a stranger
7 - get into a fight with a stranger
6 - sidewalk camping
5 - contract a disease
4 - pick up trash
3 - open defection
2 - drugs in public
1- leave immediately
what about closed defecation
You can tell he's not from Oregon just by the way he says it!!😂
You're spot on!
I swear, do people do anything other than eat when they travel? Like what a waste of an experience to spend most of the time just shoveling sugar down your gobs.
Oh, I'm sorry. Can't forget all the "gardens" too, mustn't not see all the same exact frickin' plants over and over again.
Sorry you didn't like some of my recommendations, I agree that there is more to an area than just eating and visiting gardens!
Too many ads....
Number one: Leave and never look back.
Why what is your issue with it?

not to be mean but wrong way to say Oregon in your entry it is not Oregun
just saying you say it weird
No problem, but plenty of people in the comments already addressed this so I learned the correct way a while ago haha
first thing to do in Portland: leave
🤪
Keep your negativity to yourself please 😅

Donuts are culture? Sad. Greasy food cart food. Beer. Ice cream. Nature, great.
Ore “gen”. Not GON. Sound like a doofus
Whatever you do in Portland you best have a concealed firearm. Don't be a victim.

I don't mind watching a 20 minute video if it has love for he area, some history and good video. You guys are on the right path. With that said, I am going to watch some future videos to see what you have. Like I said, half a video and I like you.
I appreciate the constructive criticism. I hope you have a great trip!

That's not how you pronounce Oregon
Why are you saying Oregon like Ore-gahn?
That's how I've heard it pronounced in Michigan and I didn't know different before I went, but I know the correct pronunciation know haha!
Because he understands the English language.
Donuts don't count as culture
Disagree, food is definitely a part of culture - even if it is donuts!
