I traveled after a breakup. I always loved visiting Portland. I went to the Japanese friendship garden, hiked multnomah falls and just ventured out. I loved going there and I wanted to live there but couldn’t foit the bill. Met some very nice people as well. I miss the coffee.
Posted: February 27, 2024I made a solo trip to Portland in November last year. I only had 2.5 days, but I tried to make the most of that time. I ate and drank at many cool breweries and restaurants. Breakfasts were the most important. Portland definitely knows how to do a proper breakfast. I attended a great concert at Revolution Hall. I managed to watch people and walk along McCall's waterfront. One morning I went to Multnomah Falls (if you go early, there's hardly anyone there). Seeing a photo of Multnomah Falls put Portland on my travel list. I stayed in Southeast Portland (which I really liked) and walked almost everywhere.

Portland is a super cute old New England town. Very walkable with lots of shops and coffee shops. Lobster rolls and fresh oysters here are amazing. Only have visited Portland for day trips and was able to see most of the city. Taking a a driving tour is helpful to get a feel and history of the city. There are also a lot of hills so you will definitely get your stairs in.
Posted: August 24, 2023I went on a quick solo trip to Portland and its surroundings. I loved the full-day trips and a few of the neighborhoods in the city. I had a wonderful time there. The city has a really relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and the people are incredibly nice.

Portland is not very safe, but it depends on what part of town you’re in. It's a community with fewer big houses, but people tend to mind their own business if you're lucky. It’s not very nice overall, but there are some of the best coffee shops and little hidden corners in the city with secret treasures. Also, Forest Park is massive and beautiful, so check it out.
Posted: July 19, 2024If you have watched Portlandia (2011) it feels like it hasn't changed much. You'll find eclectic people, 90s kids which makes the city WEIRD (in a good way). There are some clubs around Old Town and if you want to find a dive bar, well... this is your spot.

Portland is a very busy little town, near the ocean and the woods. Summer here is a dream! Have more restaurants per capta in the US. Very safe for woman! Plenty of breweries and parks. The community is very close and open to new faces! The lobster and blueberry place! Food trucks everywhere. Public transportation is easy to use. But most drive or ride bikes. Boat rides to the near islands. But no sandy beach over here, just a some towns. Rocky beaches here. The state is know by “Vacationland”
