I'm a simple Washingtonian, I see a video about my state, and I click

I've lived in Washington all my life, I've been to most other states and I 100% confirm that this the BEST state with the highest quality of life. It is the perfect haven in a rather dismal, unconvincing 1st world country. Life would seriously be intolerable if didn't live here as a U.S. citizen. I would rather beg Canada to take me or move to my husband's European country than to live anywhere else here, with the exception of Oregon. I hope it never changes. I love Washington. ♥️

Yakima in a native tribe, most of our names for towns and countys are native names.

I'm jn love with Washington state. I'm from Colombia and lived there for a year as an exchange student, after that, fell in love with it, the people, the land, culture, the music. Fuck, I love Washington!

I have lived in Washington my whole life. Its an awesome state.

One thing you could have discussed is the diversity of weather. Sure Seattle gets rain. But Spokane can get everything from rain to blizzards to over 105 degree (40C) summers to dust storms and even tornados. We also have things like the Moses Lake landing strip which is now an alternate landing zone for re-entering space shuddles in case of emergencies. There are so many interesting things about this state because it is such a diverse place. I can go from a true desert to snow covered mountain passes to a temperate rainforest in the amount of time it might take someone to make it through rush hour traffic on the 405 in LA. Pretty amazing if you ask me

Born and raised, but King County is the most populous not the largest, that’s Okanagan County.

As a Vancouver native (not the one from before Jesus) I appreciate you listing us in your large city fact. Too often we get lumped in with Portland because we are soooo close but we are a proud people and deserve to be mentioned

I live in Wenatchee Washington the Apple capital of the world and it just so happens to also be a dessert, we don't get much rain here in the middle of the state.

Surprised he did not take more on the east side of our state. Dry Falls was the world's largest waterfall at 3.5 miles wide with a 400 foot drop.

It sounds like a perfect place to live. And it has rain. I love rain

[mwalton]

Yes, I grew up in Washington state, lived in both.eastern and western Washington. I now live Oregon, as Washington became too expensive to live there.I still
Visit there to get together with friends. I will always be a Northwesterner!

[elizabethebbighausen]

Fantastic! You pronounced everything just like a person NOT from WA! Between that and the fact that the only people who use umbrellas here AREN'T from here, those are the dead giveaways of a tourist/visitor!!! Try pronouncing this one: Sequim... 🤣 Great video! Thanks from us rusty people in WA!!!

[sakoppel]

I'm Sam from Washington state and young posted this 2 days after my birthday. Thank you!

pyoo-al-up, grand coo-lee, med-eye-na, yah-ka-ma.
We buy sunglasses because we lose sunglasses.

[kayleeriley]

I am from a small town just outside of Yakima I’m glad we got a couple mentions because the east side rarely gets them I also got a good chuckle out of the pronunciations

[timfeeley-]

some things missed:The TV series northern exposure was filmed in the town of Rosylyn, The world famous Omak stampede suicide race, All the outdoor hunting scenes for the movie the deer hunter were filmed at artist point at the MT baker ski area, MT Shuksan at MT baker ski area the most beautiful and possibly the most photographed mountain in the the world! The Museum of flight, Dry falls (biggest water fall ever on the face of the earth), Bruce and Brandon lees grave sites etc....

I'm a Washington Native. Yakima is pronounced: Yak-ah-ma. Puyallup is pronounced: Poo-al-ip. Spokane is pronounced: Spoke-ann. (I know it isn't spelled that way.) Also, for what ever reason, in Des Moines WA, the S is not silent. We also have the most powerful tectonic fault off the coast. The San Juan is capable of 9.2 earth quakes. It typically unzips about every three hundred years. The last quake was in 1700. You can do the math.

I live in Washington State, and you could not see all the great places in a short time. It will take months. By that time you could fall in love with the state.

Love this video! Just one little correction: it's YA-kima (with a short 'a' sort of like 'yeah'), not Ya-KI-ma. Kudos on correcting yourself with Spokane, though! 😁👍
