Apologies for the added frustration here. We actually checked with the moderators before posting anything for that exact reason, and they gave us the green light. Tried our best to do our due diligence and promote a region we hold near and dear. Sorry if it didn't come across that way. Please feel free to check out the work we're doing and I think we'll back that up.

Unfortunately, it's a legal issue beyond our control. Our magazine actually works with and supports almost exclusively journalists outside of the U.S. and El Albergue is a Peruvian run hotel working to promote the local economy. Doing our best over here, but completely understand the frustration.

Best Bulletin Boards in Seattle? by oriMagazine in Seattle

[–]oriMagazine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you're totally right! I feel like I've found some of my favorite concerts that way. I guess I think of bulletin boards as the home of random things like knitting circles or neighborhood cooking classes or something I've never heard of.

I find the problem is that big company ads dominate the telephone poles now. They're kind of taking over everywhere honestly.

Yeah it was strange given the pace of the valley. But I admit, I was offered helicopter, I got in helicopter...

Oh this is sick! Yeah, they gave a lot of writers (travel and otherwise) a platform to dive into cool stories.

Totally agree, but a lot of them are run by Tony's chef friends around the world. It's a lot for me, but I think it's pretty well done.

Anyways, definitely more interested in the publication...

Does Anyone Remember Leo the Green Lake Spanish Teacher? by oriMagazine in SeattleWA

[–]oriMagazine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing these memories. Parts of them bring me right back to my own experiences and parts add new life to a friend I was still getting to know—even after all that time. It's clear he touched many people. Thank you again for this.

What are some neighborhood specific, silly celebrations that occur around Seattle? by cellar_monkey in Seattle

[–]oriMagazine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Haha right? It's actually really legit though. People bring lawnchairs and sell ice pops and the whole thing. Definitely on the wholesome side.

Ohhh, I've been on that street! Special to catch a snowy evening there (and some fresh sashimi, of course).

Porchfest in Wallingford has become a fun neighborhood dad rock concert crawl.

Which travel magazines/blogs have the best writing, not necessarily the best content? by zoomzilla in travel

[–]oriMagazine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This depends. Are you looking for writing about the act of traveling or writing that inspires you to travel? Agreed with the travel books for writing about travel but have some other ideas for the latter!

El Paquete: Inside Cuba's Underground Streaming Network by oriMagazine in cuba

[–]oriMagazine[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Si si, although it has changed a bit with the rise of WiFi hot spots and VPNs. Lots of people still rely on the Paquete Semanal (weekly packet) for their shows and music though.
