Does anyone have recommendations for things to do/see in and around Portland, OR? I’ve got flights booked for two weeks in May this year, and now need to reverse-engineer a holiday out of it biggrin

Assuming the Antifa thing has calmed down it’s quite a cool city - good bar/music (and beer scene) and generally laid back, albeit enthused with the permanent whiff of dope. Cannon Beach is utterly stunning and pretty near and there are loads of things to do and look at along the very beautiful coast. Seattle’s not that far either which has plenty to do.

Weather can be a bit wet but the whole Pacific North West is beautiful.

I've wanted to go to Portland for ages to visit PokPok after watching this documentary 9 (!) years ago, but now looks like he's shut them down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dr4HHepGxxM&ab...

So can't help - but think as above the food scene is pretty good!
