I’ve never seen more effective use of fantasy animation to promote tourism [x]

I’ve lived here for a year and a half now and it really is only slightly exaggerated, except there should have been more banana slugs in this

Multiple people like “I thought this would be for Japan tourism” but actually Oregon and Washington are extremely popular with Japanese people who want to visit or even live in the U.S, because the scenery and climate is so incredibly similar, not just because it’s easier to fly between the two.

Portland is apparently idolized over there as a bastion of quirky American culture (even before the show “Portlandia”), which I know mostly because our local Portland newspapers are really proud of it.

Portland and Tokyo totally ship themselves with each other.
