Portland, Oregon, also known as the "City of Roses," is a place that has both nature and city within a few blocks of each other, aka my perfect place. There’s an experience for everyone; waterfalls, rose gardens, forests, mountains as well as nightlife and delicious food. My husband and I always ask each other when we visit new places if we could see ourselves moving here and this is one place we both agreed we could picture ourselves moving to. Here is what we did on our 3 day trip to Portland, hopefully it gives you some ideas and tips for when you visit!

Last weekend my husband and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary in Joshua Tree! With COVID 19 around, we were limited where we could travel to and we wanted to do something where we could, 1. get outdoors, 2. wasn’t too far away from LA and 3. we could do it in a weekend.
