What a shitty thing to do on the USA's birthday, as if it will do any help to the USA's already ravaged tourism industry. It's sad since compared to the rest of the functioning world, the National Park System is the ONLY good thing going for the USA. And yet Trump wants to jeopardize that! ...
Banning all non-delivery and non-emergency vehicles should have been done many years ago in the most visited attraction in the Pacific Northwest. But I'm glad to see Seattle as one of the leading US cities in urban planning.
Sorry if I sound like a typical Murican Yank here. I am deciding to visit Australia sometime in January or February of next year, but I am planning to be in Sydney and maybe the Gold Coast. I am surprised at the amount of nice hotels in the CBD costing less than 150 USD to 225 AUD a night. I cannot find this in Chicago or ...
Murican here. France and Italy have much better wines anyway, and they're still much better than California wines even if they cost twice as much. Wished we could get BC wines here in Washington state.
Little early to the party here, but I wanted to wish the Canadian side of the Pacific Northwest a very happy Canada Day celebration. I've met so many people from this amazing province, and every conversation I've had with people from Vancouver, Victoria and inland BC have been extremely awesome (outside of Reddit of course). I ...
Autistic guy here and sorry for the political rant. There is a lot of intense and horrific things happening all over the world like the recent war with Iran. But let me say this. If you voted for Trump and your friends and family cut you off because of it, then I do not feel any sympathy for you. ...
I lost contact with some of my closest friends in college that I knew for more than a decade because of their politics and other things happening on social media. It's sad, but my parents and I recently moved to another city in a different state so I am forgetting that friendship already.
I apologize if I sound like one of those typical “loudmouthed” Americans here. I’m Autistic and planning to visit Vancouver Island for my 30th birthday trip with my family this July because I want to visit Canada and help support Canada with my tourist dollars (Elbows Up!) and still support that Pacific Northwest ...

Absolutely. There is actually some very good and educational stuff on TikTok, just like Reddit. However once you go away from the purely educational content and into where the influencers, politics and activists are, it gets toxic very fast. Even trends like this whole "winter arc" that I am seeing on TikTok that focuses on fitness and improving physique easily can easily be a gateway for teenage males and younger men to fall into the alt-right pipeline. I was never into the alt-right, but I did have similar thoughts towards a very large and loud segment of women on the site (not in real life however).
I am an autistic 29 year old guy who started developing a serious addiction to Instagram and TikTok during the COVID pandemic. It got worse around 2022 when I lost my job. TikTok, like Reddit, does have lots of very informational and interesting content on there and I enjoyed watching lots of travel videos as well as many math ...
I'm an Autistic 29 year old guy who can do everything normally, but I can really struggle with finding a job and keeping a job. Hearing what RFK Jr. had to say about the Autistic community, we need to show up on the streets to show that we can stand up on our own have our voices be heard loud and clear. The Trump admin wants to ...
I visited your awesome city in February of this year. Despite the Boston stereotypes, I found the people very outgoing and friendly. I'm from Portland where I wanted to explore the NE USA since I love train travel and walkable cities. During my travels in Boston, I carefully chose to stay in an Airbnb room near MIT since hotel ...
I booked the Airbnb room (not an entire unit, screw that) in an owned-occupied house back in December, and this was before one of the founders joined DOGE. I wished I stayed in a hotel though since they weren't super expensive ($180 a night with taxes). I stayed in a hotel in NYC though.
While the USA under Trump charges extra for non-Americans visiting the national parks, Canada under Carney makes its national parks free to all visitors.

This place is called Pike Place Market, Seattle. Last year, some people claimed no one will shop here anymore if it's pedestrianized.
This summer, for the first time, Seattle banned cars in the Pike Place Market : ...
Why are hotels in Australia so inexpensive compared to hotels in the USA and Canada?
Sorry if I sound like a typical Murican Yank here. I am deciding to visit Australia sometime in January or February of next year, but I am planning to be in Sydney and maybe the Gold Coast. I am surprised at the amount of nice hotels in the CBD costing less than 150 USD to 225 AUD a night. I cannot find this in Chicago or ...
This happened one day in the window well outside my office. I got banned from r/pics for posting it.
I guess some people thought it was AI, but just a cool moment in my basement window well. ...
U.S. wine exports to Canada have fallen off a cliff
Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4?
I was talking to one of my friends and he mentioned staying home on July 4, citing how there are a lot of really ugly things going on in the US. ...
Happy Canada Day from an American (Washingtonian) who isn't feeling patriotic at all!
Little early to the party here, but I wanted to wish the Canadian side of the Pacific Northwest a very happy Canada Day celebration. I've met so many people from this amazing province, and every conversation I've had with people from Vancouver, Victoria and inland BC have been extremely awesome (outside of Reddit of course). I ...
More respect for the Canadians, less for the Yanks!
It's going to be one hell of a summer!
I have absolutely no sympathy for anyone who lost friends and family, just because they voted for the current president.

How are tourists from the northwest USA viewed here in BC?

How are American tourists (more specifically northwest US) viewed here in Victoria and Vancouver Island?

Thinking about permanently deleting my TikTok account for good after being on the platform for almost 5 years
Bit of a long post here. ...

Thank you Boston! Visited for the first time from the Pacific Northwest in February. Fantastic experience even with the weather not being ideal.
