did i tell y'all i might be moving to the pnw this year
@typhlosion you'll love it! i think. i hope.
or, maybe you won't love it - that's okay, too... but regardless, if you ever want a restaurant recommendation (or anything else along those lines) i'm good for the portland and seattle areas 
@Chel hey, thanks c: i've visited a couple times but obviously that's not enough to get a proper bead on a place
the specific area i'm looking at is vancouver, washington - i guess a portland suburb? but a TON of my friends and loved ones are moving there and also my job here is slowly killing me
@typhlosion you're welcome! the area has a lot to offer imo
and yeah vancouver can def feel like a portland suburb x)
couple random tidbits:
if you live/work in vancouver but shop in portland, you avoid oregon's income tax -and- the washington sales tax (this is a popular thing to do)
the i5 bridge is miserable af during rush hour
sock dreams is in portland. they have a physical store there
kiggins, living room/hollywood theatres (among others) occasionally show anime and random fun stuff
