This will be a first in a series dedicated to my summer travels - look forward to Seattle and Hawaii next!
A couple weeks ago, my family and I took a nice vacation to Portland, the city known for "hipsters" and its general weirdness. And well, I got to say, the hype was real. It is indeed full of interesting folk. And I mean that in the best way possible.
One thing for sure: I had some of the best food I've ever had while in Portland. Pure deliciousness. But more on that later.
The city. Portland is actually a rather small city, compared to hotspots like Seattle and New York and LA. But that was what I loved about it.
Its kind of hard to explain, to put into words, but it was like a busy little niche, away from the world - with intriguing people and places.
We hiked a lot, explored the city, walked until our feet and legs ached, tried public transportation, visited Powell's, and ate a lot, of course.
Since it is so difficult to put the city into words, I'll just convey it through photos!!
Of course, we had to pay a visit to the infamous Voodoo Doughnut. The lines were crazy but the donuts were mediocre, although they had interesting flavors.
