My top 5 list for Portland & environs – for me, for visitors, for everyone — with a little visual eye candy to illustrate and inspire.

From here you can ponder which neighborhoods you like the best, what feels like home to you, watch the boats on the water, see as far as you can see. OMSI is here, and you can stop in and explore, or just keep walking and enjoying the trails, and urban hiking goodness that we have all around us.
A stroll through Portland’s Central Eastside has something for everyone – with great restaurants, bars; coffee of course. It’s busy with warehouses and trade, and treasures like Pratt & Larson tile where you can take a tour, if you schedule in advance, to see how their gorgeous artisan tile is made, all of this making Portland truly a place where you can really #lovewhereyoulive.
5. Portland’s Art & Music scene – the community, the vibrant, lovely people that make this place what it is. I might just love this the most. The fantastic venues, from Mississippi to the Revolution Hall — the bands, the variety, the talent. Galleries galore throughout the city and wonders like the Ford Gallery with it’s history and vibrant artist community. All of this action and talent here in the Portland area surrounded by forests and mountains and coast, to recharge your creative spirit – we definitely have our own thing going on here: happy and humming and open to all.
