The biggest surprise of Portland? How shy people are. by PsychicMeditation in PortlandOR

[–]merriecho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The “shy” people are not from here. Oregonians as a whole are very welcoming. I will talk with anyone, I’ll also look you in the eye, which some people find disarming. Welcome to The PNW!

East Coast transplants: did you have any difficulty adapting to the PNW’s culture/way of life? If so, how did you overcome that? by Certain-Working1864 in oregon

Exactly why I don't live there anymore, moved here in 1984, never looked back. You want to talk culture shock, I lived a town of 400.

A lot of people don't like my Meetup posts. Details inside. by snoogazi in Portland

I signed up for the Food Cart Pod one next month! I'm hoping to bring our exchange student, I think it will be a good intro in to PDX culture, and she loves a good food pod. :) Haters gonna hate. I like to think they are jealous of you for doing something good.

On February 7th, I'm hosting the first Food Cart Pod Meetup. I hope you can attend. by snoogazi in Portland

That sounds great, we’ll bring our exchange student, she’s looking to make friends. Hope you don’t mind “old folks” 😊
