  • Strolling around Downtown Vancouver, exploring. I decided to check out Chinatown. From there I found myself on Hastings. Vancouver's least popular tourist attraction. A slum if there ever was one.

    I'm from Portland, Oregon USA but have been living in France for 15 years. Every time I go back to the Pacific Northwest the homelessness and drug problem just gets worse and worse. Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, and SF are all, sadly, bad. The whole area is beautiful. Just hang out in our forests and mountains next time. :)

    Thank You for sharing Paul. It's getting to be like Kensington Philadelphia there. Shocking. Stay Safe my friend. ☘🥰.

      If I knew where I was I probably would have turned back. But I was there with my camera so thought might as well keep it going. I haven't been to Philadelphia yet but heard parts are very rough. All these places are even worse now since the pandemic I believe. Cheers Levina 👍

      @@PaulTheIrishPainter if you ever have a spare minute watch Kensington Avenue Philadelphia on UA-cam. It's like The living dead. Shocking & So Very sad. Cheers Paul. ☘😀.

      @@levinawalsh2015 I just looked it up there. Wow. Hopefully we'll never see anything like that back home. I don't think we will. I thought it was just drug addiction but seems mental illness is the real issue which leads to the drugs in most cases. It is so sad

    Think a lot of the shops in Chinatown are already out of business. 😢
