From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can!

    Whenever I'm in Portland, I go to the OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science & Industry), where they actually have a retired submarine in the river that you can tour, along with the jet boat rides and a lot of other fun stuff. I like to ride the Portland Aerial Tram to get an unparalleled view of the city, tour Pittock Mansion 1000 feet up in the West Hills, and go to Hoyt Arboretum and the zoo in Washington Park. And no trip to Portland is complete until you go to the beach and see Haystack Rock, Cape Kiwanda and Seaside.

Smallest park and the largest park in a city with Mills end and Forest Park. International Test Garden and Crystal springs Rhododendron are great in city parks. As for your tacos, Mole Mole is the best.

    I don’t get the hate. If you don’t live in it, you have no sound knowledge to be criticizing. If you used to live in it, then move on and stop obsessing over a city you left. If you live in it, move if you don’t feel safe. So much exaggerated anger towards a city, like they were wronged and dumped by an ex. Having lived in other major cities, Portland isn’t much worse with its issues. If you can’t see past that and focus on the wonderful things it does have to offer, then you really don’t belong in Portland anyway. Never seen people so triggered over a city.
