It's the walking in the rain for me that gets me off with this channel. Big ups to Pluviophiles. Favourite pluviophile cities in the world- Seattle WA, Portland OR, Vancouver BC, Edinburgh Scotland, Dublin Ireland and Bergen Norway. The rain won't disappoint you in these places.
In case no one has told you recently, you are doing important work with this. I moved away from Portland in 2018 and I just found your channel and am planning on having it on in the background for the foreseeable future. You are giving me back my home, I can't thank you enough!!

Thanks for posting these videos of portland Oregon in the rain i go there all the time to see the portland trail blazers play basketball it's one of my favorite cities to visit i like walking in the rain over there
❤ hey, I moved away from my hometown of Portland back in 1995. Of course I’ve visited many times since then, but I probably haven’t been there for five years. I just wanted to say how much I appreciate you doing this. It’s really great being able to faintly hear voices, but not so much that they take away from the nice walk. Thank you.
Great video as always. Rain sounds so soothing and peaceful, images reflected on streets look like paintings. Beautiful walk, love the old buildings. OREGON LEATHER is seen at about 15:45 - here I am, watching from Brazil and what a nice surprise to see one of my dear old customers. Exported shoe repair goods to them for many years. A big hello to the McPhersons at Oregon Leather, hope they will whatch your vid. What a small world! Cheers & keep walking, thank you so much for doing these.
Throw in the description box the equipment you use please :) These are maybe the best "for sleep" videos on YT. The rain sounds totally normal, the cars driving by on the wet road (my absolute fav sound :), the random talk you hear on the side. Gold! Gold! Gold!
@@464588 I feel you dude. I literally just moved back East where I’m from a few months ago after living in Portland for over three years. It’s turned into a dangerous place in some areas. Way too much mental instability running through that city right now, so I unfortunately pulled the plug and moved home.
Portland is for me one of the prettiest cities in the USA. I like the not very well-known small town of the Pacific with that of the state of Oregon and the state of washington also that a certain charm and a serenity I find the fact of being surrounded by all this greenery
I left PDX some years ago after living in the Alphabet District for 10. Yep, loved walking around the neighborhoods on rainy days and cycling in drier conditions. Wetness keeps the craziness down, although the weirdness remains. The hipster invasion was already in full swing when I arrived, and a lot of the early Pearl redevelopment happened during my tenure. So sad to see that the economy is taken over by hipsters selling fancy food, fancy coffee, fashion, and holistic remedies to each other. P-town is a little too woke for me, lately. I'm well left of center, but I'd feel like an alien there, these days. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane, and for showing me that what I loved about the place when I lived there is fading away.
@@DeWin157 It doesn't matter where they're from, Dean. You can only construct the value of "Portland native". The common denominator is how much money it takes. Many people can barely afford the rents because housing is not plentiful enough to serve all those who want to live there. Whose responsibility is it when supply does not meet demand? I don't know. To choose one or the other is arbitrary, unless political economy is assumed. The Proud Boys don't march in PDX simply because the hipsters bought up all the expensive real estate. Rightly or wrongly, the hipsters put their stamp on PDX because what they want is a place like the place they want to live. Self-reinforcing, or positive feedback, that's what we call it.
@@danieljulian4676 As I was saying, there was too much growth too fast over the past roughly 35 years. I have family that are in all areas of the housing construction field, and they have told me that it has been non stop since 1986. My Grandfather built a house in the late 60's in the outskirts between Hillsboro and Aloha, in a very small village called Orenco, the only things that were there at the time was a small park, a golf course, and a fire station, along with maybe a total of 20 houses spread out. Now, Orenco is a bustling HUGE suburb of Hillsboro proper, his street renamed from 231st, off Baseline Road, to Century Road, and around his street Hillsboro's Main Street name was extended to 214th Street, which that street itself was renamed to Cornelius Pass Road. That area has been hugely built up as well, what was once wooded area is now where an Albertson's is the flagship for a bustling strip mall.
All your wonderful pieceful vidios I never see any people that's what makes it so pieceful and relaxing and no music I almost can see the steford wives it's so pieceful smile
I find these videos lovely and intriguing. I'm curious about the colors there. Have you noticed how many lights in buildings are yellowish orange and how many surfaces are painted that way too? It's not like that here in Arkansas.
Came here from Arizona in late 90's. Most beautiful big city on the west cost. That was then. 2021 it's a kaleidoscope of Drugs, (Meth/Heroin) Homelessness, Violence, Protests...From a 'What's up' or 'Hey their' to 'Stay away from me.' 'I don't know you...' I guess, this too will pass. In all it's ugliness & depravity. Portland is still a beautiful city. You just got to dig a bit to see it.
@@annaroberts3160 No they are correct Portland is a cornicopia of drugs heroin/meth homeless, crime, mental illness and now murder as the murder rate is up 2000%! That is EXACTLY what has happened to this beautiful city it has been invaded and destroyed by MORONS. Hope this helps ✌
@@annaroberts3160 it's pretty bad I've lived right outside of Portland my entire life and went down there a million times and never have I seen it as bad as it has been in the past year. even 6 months ago it was not as bad as it now. over near china town is literally just a warzone. homeless camps everywhere, trash in the streets and on the sidewalks. graffiti and boarded up windows and closed businesses. every other corner there's trash or homeless people. under every bridge and in any open area there's tents and trash. it's depressing
The Fish Grotto, on the left at 50:45 had the best fish and chips and PacNW clam chowder, that had small salmon chunks in it with the clams, their seafood was the best in the city. But I heard from friends that the reason why it was closed down was because the owner, who also ran the gay nightclub that was attached to the restaurant, got busted for selling X in the club.
@@Azazel2024 The Grotto closed in 2014, I moved out of the Portland area 26 years ago, my friends from work and I used to go there every friday after payday for fish and chips and clam chowder, they were from England and I'm British heritage, care to ASSume anymore?
Hey how is it going there in Portland Oregon I have family that lives there from my dad's side and I don't know how they are but it is a pretty town and I hope they didn't I hope they stopped messing up your city like they were ours too I don't mean to event on your channel but just curious on how is it there and I love the rain videos so thank you for that and be safe!¡!!
What was that spot is that where they all hang out the homeless no offense but that reminded me of the zombies I mean is that like just all over now there are is it just certain areas and you're brave. that's good you didn't show them no fear😊 it's kind of sad huh it's everywhere but I mean cuz it's going to get cold I just care too much they probably know how to keep themselves warm I don't know but I do enjoy your video!!! And thanks for that and don't mind me cuz I I talked to you guys if I have a question cuz I am a curious person I mean you're showing us a video so and I'm curious hope you don't mind 😉👋🤝😊 take care...
Portland in September 2020 was a tragedy. Note all the boarded up windows on the restaurants and shops - due to the 2020 protests/riots that were taking place. And that same month came the massive forest fires that blotted out the sun and gave us the worst air quality in the world for a few days. And yet - look how beautiful this city is, even at her lowest.
I lived and worked here 2 years, after i lost my mum...it was the most beautiful city i had ever been in....wtf...20 years on,,, the dntn looks a scary ghost town boarded up, graffittied over...big time riots and violence after geo flloyd huh,??,,,too too sad.
I lived there in 2004-2007 and enjoyed every second of it, but the climate change was not as bad as it is now, Portland now gets very hot in the summer.
Blue Diamond, I remember when Portland was very temperate, rarely below 35 in the winters, and barely above 80 in the summers, Portland and Seattle are both poster cities for how bad climate change has become so extreme.
