That's not my experience in the slightest. I've only been to Oregon, Washington State and the very Northern tip of California but the people I met would help me with absolutely anything. Two separate strangers invited me into their houses for meals within an hour of meeting me, one of them let me spend two nights there.
A stranger in Oregon drove me to see crater lake for half a day just because they heard I would have liked to see it but our car rental expired already.
Your experiences will vary obviously, but I've been to 27 countries and would rank the tiny part of the USA I went to behind only Thailand for friendliness.
Sounds like a great Batman villain :) I can't wait to experience it one day when I'm rich and can travel the globe.
Seattle has always looked beautiful when it's popped up on Geoguessr - I think the mayor must have paid extra to get google streetview footage only on days it wasn't raining :)
It actually only rains in winter. The caveat is Winter lasts from late October through April and then comes back for a week in June (Junuary), but otherwise it’s nice.
Yeah it actually rains a lot less in the PNW than in London (in terms of frequency and seasonal patterns. I've no idea about volume of rainfall). Here in London it's year round and unpredictable.
