Another beautiful day in one of the most evil places on earth <3

>>212226230 (OP)
living in the outskirts of LA seems very comfy

>>212226230 (OP)
very walkable sidewalk

>>212226248
It’d actually very nice. I love being from this weird place. It seems bad from an outsider perspective but it’s very nuanced. Btw I am NOT Hispanic. I’m one of the few Timmies left that actually is from here.

just move to hollywood

>>212226284
Nah… no parking. I live a few miles northeast of there currently and I really like it.

If you can see DTLA you are not in the outskirts of LA

>>212226230 (OP)
The smog adds a romantic touch

>>212226262
Welcome to America

>>212226248
It's comfy in specific spots but you still get riffraff pouring in from skid row, south central and San Bernardino county. You want comfy then you gotta look at San Gabriel valley. Cool views though

>>212226230 (OP)
Is that Irkutsk or what?

>>212226336
It’s El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula

>>212226359
How is this paradise evil then?

>>212226327
how? isnt spread on a fuckhuge area? I presume skidrow is in downtown, wouldnt that be like 15 kms+ away, how do they reach those hills and the rest of the outskirts, its not like they drive

HELP I (don't) SUFFER IN SUBURBAN PENNSYLVANIA

Warning: Night walks may be more comfy than appear in mirror

California seems to be one of the coolest places with wonderful atmosphere to me. Pacific Coast Highway ugh... One Russian wrighter spent a lot of time there and described it really good.

>>212226672
>its not like they drive
they drive, also 15km is considered close in LA

>>212226689
California is great don't ever let a /pol/ fag tell you otherwise

>>212226230 (OP)
>>212226682
Mogs my shitter

>>212226672
Because all the areas I listed are very bad. Combination of junkies following dealers and hoods targeting suburbs. Walking 9 miles isn't a lot. I do that on a work day

>>212226733
Sure, I'm talking about nature and overall atmosphere first of all, but I also don't take those whinings about 'awful life' in US seriously.

>>212226733
LA in specific and California in general are terrible places to live in. If somebody wants to make it in America, come live in a real American state like Texas - Californians excepted

>>212226230 (OP)
you have to go into the left lane on a blind spot to make the turn, what a shittily designed road or just a bunch of Pacos illegally parked.

>>212226909
>If somebody wants to make it in America, come live outside of major metropolises and in the suburbs/countryside

Very enlightening.

>>212226874
Even SF is an amazing city besides the prices. I've had to go there a few times the last couple years and while I was there I saw basically every neighborhood on the e-scooters they have. I had a ton of time to just explore and SF is not bad at all. The tenderloin takes 5 minutes to walk through, market street has some druggies, the mission has some people selling stolen shampoo but besides that it's so beautiful and idyllic. Victorian houses everywhere, great public transit, beautiful rolling hills.

Neighborhoods feel like a small town with their own main street so it feels like a city of multiple small towns smashed together in a way that's easy to navigate and fun to explore.

>>212226909
Texas is mogged by California lmfao. I live in Texas now it's shit. I live in El Paso and east texas people say I live in the shitty part but it's way better than anywhere in the texas triangle. Texas has so few public lands it's all owned by ranchers and it's flat and boring and the cool parts you can't explore because it's private land. El Paso isn't a touristic gem but it's cheap and fun to live in. Most texas cities are shitholes. Austin has more drug zombies than SF lol

>>212226953
Yeah... uh... about that...

>>212226909
Both Texas and California are mexican states at this point. Let's not kid ourselves.

>>212226272
stop calling yourself timmy, its cringe af

>I suffer in *checks notes* Nebraska

Honestly I've been all over America and it all sucks dick but California and Hawaii sucks the least dick out of all the places I've been
It's sad because this country could've been so much better if a couple people in the 50s gave a shit and had some foresight

>>212226248
that isn't the outskirts anon lmfao

you don't comprehend the scale of LA. that's basically inside the city

>>212226672
some areas like OPs pic are hilly but not exclusive and high income (yet)

LA does not have great transit but has busses that take you to every urban area and the bus drivers don't want to risk their lives stopping a homeless person from riding the bus without paying so basically the busses transport hobos everywhere

>>212226932
Ugh, that's what I meant from my first post, you guys are lucky mfs.

>>212226230 (OP)
omg the gta city

>>212226932
this looks like hell on earth I'm sorry

>>212227126
>We got GTA city before GTA 6

c*lifornians aren't human, they aren't americans

>>212227027
Imagine taking a comfy train ride through pasadena into the mountains for a day trip...VGH what could've been

>>212227154
>WHY ISN'T THIS FLAT LIKE DENMARK!!!

You can't see it in this pic but the first level of a lot of those buildings are restaurants, cafes, book stores, bars, clubs, etc. very comfy area

>>212227185
I hate flat places. I generally like America. There is just something about that particular image you posted that triggered something subconsciously. Maybe it's just the smog

>>212227221
That's not smog... SF doesn't have smog that's fog which SF does often have a lot of

*California love starts playing*

Especialy North California seems to be absolutely kino place. Mountains + forest + a lot of sun and beaches (probably).

The more I think about Asians in California, the more it feels like they should just break off and form their own Asian-majority state somewhere on the continent

>>212227221
The pic was taken during an unusually rainy day too... it almost never rains in SF but fog is common but when I was there it was actually raining so it was unusually heavy clouds but it's not smog

Here's with a bit more sun poking through in the same area

>>212227260
that's Peru

>>212227221
That's fog, it infamously has a little microclimate that makes summers there cold and foggy

>>212227260
BTW here's an elephant seal fight I caught on camera in California on a beach near the pacific highway sorry for shitty quality I kind of had to compress the file

>>212227221
Okay now THAT reminds me of home... VGH memories

According to google, Philadelphia is the most 'walkable' city in the us. I could swear it would be Boston.

>>212227291
cool

>>212227260
Should've bulldozed one of the channel islands and made Hong Kong 2 (actually proposal made back in 2019 btw)

>>212227335
It is... Philly is way more walkable. Philly is another mega underrated US city because people think it's dangerous

Pic related night walk to art museum

>>212226272
>white faggot from california unironically calls himself "timmy"
i believe you

>>212227358
it is dangerous

>>212227221
>>212227154
It looks like hell because 80% of the SF is townhouses. SF was never designed to be an actual city. The downtown area of SF caters to extremely rich people to this day.

>>212227335
Philly is similar to boston tho. Pic related is Philly but many foreigners would probably assume it's Boston

>>212227367
>It's dangerous
It's not. The danger is heavily concentrated in places you're not going to go. You can walk all of center city all the way up to kennsington ave, down all the way to the end of south philly, go into west philly and be totally safe at any hour of the day. Nobody who visits Philly is going to end up in the bad dangerous areas

this is the impression I get of California from the internet
>great weather
>always congested
>dirty as fuck / lots of druggies / crime
>way too expensive
>cool & cultured cities, great nature
is this true?

>>212226682
>ACK in forest fire
>ACK when you're driving down a forest road and a huge deer jumps through your windshield

>>212227562
PA doesn't really have forest fires because it's not dry like out west

but yes to the deer....

>>212226230 (OP)
is this supposed to be a bad pic or what? cause it is not

>>212227923
It looks like a shithole

>>212227949
theres not a single pothole in that pic

>>212228233
There's also no medieval or renaissance buildings or gothic cathedrals

>>212227400
You just know the wood is rotting in those walls

>>212226733
shame about the people

>>212226733
I wanna sail into that bay

>>212226230 (OP)
I've heard Houston is far, far worse. Can you confirm?

>>212228601
You realize LA to Houston is a 20 hour drive? How would be know

>>212228601
It is lmfao. Trumpanzees abandoned that city to thugs, like they do with every city. Gun violence there is out of control. People drive around with guns looking for anyone to stop

>>212228601
Houston is one of the worst cities in the USA lol let alone texas or cali

>>212226230 (OP)
i would kill myself if i lived in California

>>212226230 (OP)
Looks like Franklin's home in GTA V

>>212228601
Texas is full of gangs on a level that California hasn't seen since the 90s, but Texans don't want to admit it

>>212228851
The only good big city in texas is El Paso... texans think El Paso is the worst city in texas because it's so far from the texas core lol

Off topic, but I wonder why such curios place like Colorado so poorly presented in a modern American culture? Looks like a fairy tale place, 1500 metres above the sea level and still well populated with authentic cowboy atmosphere.

>>212227182
It's capitalism, baby

A 100% White California of 5-10 million people would be absolute paradise.

>>212226932
it perpetually smells like urine and you will occasionally encounter druggies having public gay sex

>>212228989
Honestly probably the lack of population in the inter-mountain west. Also, while the nature is beautiful most inter-mountain west cities aren't that exciting so people just think of "the Rockies" instead of Denver or SLC or Missoula or something

>>212229079
>/pol/ fantasies on /int/
/int/ has fallen...

>>212229101
i was in san fransisco 2 years ago, I am literally speaking from things I personally saw while there

>>212229101
Thanks. It still looks like a really nice place to live, I mean Denver.

>>212229127
Did you only walk down market street and the mission?

the only nice places in america are new england, the sierras, and maybe montana. everywhere else is dogshit

>>212229146
Pennsylvania is paradise... also the Mississippi delta is mega underrated because "Muh poverty"

>>212229141
literally the majority of the city smelled like urine because it hadn't rained in a few days. anyone who has lived there or visited knows this, stop bullshitting

Cali is cool because of the insane amount of geographic diversity. It has the hottest place in the entire world, it has snowy ski towns, it has the highest mountain in the lower 48 less than an hour (i think) drive from the lowest point in the USA, amazing vegitation and rocky beaches, red rock desserts and deep green endless forests I love it

>>212229162
i haven't been there but I have a friend who lives in new orleans and thinks its the best place in the country. What's good about it?

>>212229176
I posted photos from SF. I've been there multiple times and have spent over 2.5 months there in total and have visited literally every neighborhood in the city besides some of the sleepy boring parts right on the border with South San Fransisco. SF is underrated and /pol/ was wrong...

>>212229204
still smells like piss
this is a simple statement of fact whether you like it or not

>>212228989
because hollywood set up shop in los angeles. so much media is set in california. especially SF and LA.
im glad that places like Colorado and Washington state don't get attention. portland got the spotlight and now it's full of spiteful rentfugees that DESTROYED the vibe of that place

>>212229187
>hottest place in the world
I walked all the way across death valley when I was a hobo

>>212229196
NOLA is great. Another city /pol/ will hate because they think you will be shot if you go there.

I was in NOLA for two weeks recently and then had some free time so I rented a car and drove up the Mississippi to Memphis stopping in Natchez, Vicksburg, then exploring delta towns for 5 days. The Delta just feels like another country. The accents are thick, blackest part of the USA and the people who are there have been there since the old south obviously so the dialect is unique. The blues heritage still exists. You'll pull up to a dusty town and walk around and there'll be a little shack "juke joint" where people are shooting pool and listening to old timers tell stories. It's very poor neighborhoods and towns and statistically shouldn't be safe but I was wandering aimlessly through them and locals would ask me what I was up to and invite me to go shoot pool or go to a juke joint. Old timers had stories of the early blues days when all the blues legends would come through trying to make money to go to Chicago (these guys are literally like 95+ years old).

It just feels frozen in time. Very very different from NOLA but both NOLA and the Delta are very distinct places in the USA that are worth going to. I was also surprised to see some Euro tourists in the Delta, a lot of Euros who are into rock or the blues go in a pilgrimage. I met Danes, Brits, Finnish guys and this was in the middle of nowhere in towns that don't even have a single stop sign.

>>212229290
Be ready for a lot of towns that look like this

>>212229315
And you walk down residential streets that look rundown (but I didn't like to take pics there since it felt a bit invasive) and you'd think it's probably not a smart idea to walk aimlessly there. But multiple times guys sitting on their porch or just hanging out on their street would just ask what I'm doing and want to show me a good time and then you'd end up in a local billards place like this with cardboard walls eating soul food

>>212229146
You have never been to Montana

>>212229334
i have in fact been to montana like 3 or 4 times

>>212229248
Interesting, thanks

>>212229332
So yeah it's not the most "beautiful" part of the country but if you are into just meeting locals and experiencing a totally different culture in the US it's worth it. Also, the rest of MS I saw was also nice, Natchez was pretty and Vicksburg is worth a stop for the town and the civil war history

>>212229355
Also, this is not what NOLA is like haha NOLA is very pretty as a city even in places outside the tourist areas (but it does have very dangerous parts too)

I really liked walking around Treme, Bywater, Garden District there

>>212229290
>>212229315
Sweet American south east, I spent there several months (mostly SC), was also passing through Louisiana. As atmosphere connoisseur I enjoyed it a lot.

>>212229535
Nice! I need to explore the SE more it's sort of the region I've seen the least of. I really like Charleston but I need to see more of SC I like it from what I've visited. I do love the cypress swamps and the spanish moss

>>212227335
no city is more walkable than nyc. its not possible.

>>212229592
>Charleston
Spent there a whole day once, wonderful place. I still can't imagine that people live there their regular lives.

>>212227562
The frightened mind of the city slicker

>>212229677
Did you go to uni in the US? Or did you go there for work?

>>212229315
>>212229355
Personally, I don't mind these 'rustic' or unkempt places that much. But what creeps me out about a lot of american towns and suburbs is how empty the vast majority of them are. You very rarely see people walking around or kids playing. It feels very eerie at times.

>>212227025
holy kino clouds

>>212229741
Yeah the town in the first pic was in rough shape and it felt like a ghost town until I started exploring more and then I met people and found places for music etc. But it was weird walking around just hoping I would come across people/find something to do.

>>212229737
Work and travel, student exchange program. It was many years ago. You just go to US with a working visa on your uni's vacation.

>>212229771
Mid-west/Plains are GOATed for cloud formations and epic thunder storms. You can see way in the distance and see distant thunder storms like a light show. And when you're camping in it it's really crazy the wind is insane and you feel so little. For the weather alone the great plains are one of my favorite areas. The sky just looks massive. Pic is from Nebraska too

This rem9ved.

>>212229771
And here's a better pic of that formation

>>212229814
>>212229847
Very nice pics, I love clouds.

>>212229778
Nice did you get to pick where in the US you wanted to go or did you get a randomly assigned location?

I've met a lot of Eastern Europeans who get seasonal working visas and end up in the most random parts of the USA

>>212229847
Stronger.

>>212227221
This pic is peak comfy. Makes me nostalgic for a place I haven't lived in.

>>212227221
Kino image
I have a right to live in America and have a beautiful blonde family

>>212229882
Initially you need a job offer to get visa, but it doesn't oblige you to anything and you actually can go anywhere and get any job after getting a visa. So, eastern europeans sometimes even go to Alaska or California. But most just stay in eastern coast of course.

Also, the song which that thread reminds me

>>212230013
Yeah skip to 24 seconds I probably should have clipped the video lol

>>212229814
>>212229847
Very nice. I saw some of the thunderstorms in the distance you mentioned when I was in the South West. You can see stuff like that where I live in Sweden too but usually it's too much forest or buildings, in combination with it being flat here, to see a portion of the sky that is as big as in your open places. This is from NM, not the greatest camera

>>212229847
Unfortunately we never have clouds like that, while having mostly similar landscape. But I suspect there is a high chance of having tornadoes in the places with clouds like that.

>>212230013
Beautiful.

>>212230003
That makes sense. There's a lot on beach boardwalks like the Jersey shore and at amusement parks on the east coast. But sometimes I see them further afield in different unexpected places. It sounds like a lot of fun especially in college to just go somewhere totally new with a random job and take whatever comes as it does.

And I like the song it sounds like the south. Makes me want to do a road trip

>>212230066
Yeah in the SW it can open up to flat desert and you can really see the clouds. Sometimes it's blocked by mountains/canyons/etc but sometimes it's pretty flat there

And nice that pic is really pretty! What did you think of NM?

>>212230074
Yeah the great plains remind me of the Steppes or Mongolia haha I'm not sure why you guys don't get tornados there it must be how the air gets funneled through the plains here. And yeah it is a very big tornado area

>>212230081
The little castle thingy on the bottom right marks the highest point in South Dakota. I like how it's totally dwarfed by the clouds

>>212230104
>amusement parks
I worked 2 shifts in amusement park lol.

>It sounds like a lot of fun
Sure, it's really wonderful. One of the many good things Americans did to this world.

>>212230160
I loved it, especially the mountains where there was a bit more grass and plant life besides the usual prickly pear cacti and thorny bushes that are in the flat areas. The best thing was the distant views. I remember seeing the mountain my picture is from when we were driving there on the highway almost an hour before even getting there, must have been like 40 miles

>>212226733
it's great if you never leave carmel so you don't have to see niggers

>>212226272
You don't come from LA, you come TO LA, but if you come from LA you probably come from Pasadena.

>>212230017
bodied that nafri freak

>>212230244
Nice lol hopefully you got free admission too. And yeah it is a great program and it benefits all the towns that get the workers + the people who do it get a nice experience. I know somebody who married a girl he met when she was working at the boardwalk in NJ on one of those visas.

>>212230338
It's crazy how fast the scenery can change in the SW and how the landscape is so dynamic if you're in a canyon but when the landscape opens up you see a landmark in the distance getting closer and closer and closer it just feels so endless.

I'm actually leaving for NM on Wednesday. I haven't spent a lot of time there so I'm excited to get to see more of it. What was your favorite area? Are the more grassy hills up in the northern part near the border with Colorado?

>>212230551
>Are the more grassy hills up in the northern part near the border with Colorado?
Yeah there's definitely more of that up there but it seemed to me that most mountain areas are like that, I saw similar things further south too.
The coolest landscapes were probably like the one in your photo that really looked like it was from a western movie, but the mountain plant life felt more comfy since it reminder me more of the nature in Sweden

Another state I often think about is Maine. I read a lot of Stephen King and overall that place seems to be very interesting and cool. Reminds me of more comfortable kind of Siberia.
