don't get me wrong, it's pretty. really pretty. and old. just not the kind of city i can really get into. the amount of tourists is frightening, it kind of feels like "olden town land" at an adventure park.
i grew up in chicago, so i know snow. but having lived in portland for the past 7 years i just haven't seen so much of it in ages. i also really loved the shapes and lights of the university
i got lost in these numerous times. the murals painted on the walls fascinated me and i especially loved how you could tell when a lot of the graffiti was written. for example: "ugly kid joe rules" haha.
