Between <\/span><b>things to do in Portland<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, traveling to the <\/span><b>coast<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>wine country<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and much more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I <a href=\"https:\/\/regularlywe.com\/homepage\/5-mistakes-to-av\u2026ve-cross-country\/\">moved to Oregon with my partner back in August of 2021<\/a>. We moved from Chicago to the Mississippi District of Portland, Oregon. We fell in love with Portland restaurants, Oregon nature, and the laid-back lifestyle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below you will find 8 reasons I love living in Oregon\u2026 SO FAR.\u00a0 I stress SO FAR because it has been less than a year, and I know this list will multiply. You\u2019ll also find that every single bit of my list are things I enjoy<\/span><b> solo<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with my partner, with friends (if I ever make them), or just with Hades, my pup (Oregon is extremely dog friendly)<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 1 Forest Park<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone who travels to Portland has heard of Forest Park (funny side-note \u2013 I used to live in Forest Park, IL, so I was very confused when I first got here). Forest Park, a gigantic park filled with hiking, biking, horse-riding, running, etc trails, sits on the northwest quadrant of Portland.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From my own apartment, it is a quick 15-minute drive to some of my favorite dog-friendly trails.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a former Chicago native, I\u2019m used to a hike being, at minimum, a 2-hour drive and it smelling like sewage. Forest Park smells like a fairy grove, is walkable for some people in the city, and its many trails cannot be covered in a week let alone a visit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plus, it is FLIPPING gorgeous.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 2 Silver Falls State Park<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That being said \u2013 there are great hikes within 2 hours of Portland as well. Silver Falls State Park holds <\/span><b>THE TRAIL OF TEN FALLS,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a heavily traffics hike that walks you by\u2026<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> 10\u2026 waterfalls<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Honestly, it is a very well-named hike.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0It would be extremely odd had they decided to name it the trail of 10 falls and then you get there and it is 1 waterfall. (That is something that would happen in Illinois).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are also not little Illinois waterfalls, these are, \u201clet me walk behind them, pretend I\u2019m in a fantasy film, I need to speak up because the water rushes so hard\u201d falls. The first time I went to this trail, I thought I was in Skyrim. I recommend it to anyone visiting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-179 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Trail-of-Ten-Falls.png?resize=225%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Trail-of-Ten-Falls.png?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Trail-of-Ten-Falls.png?w=384&amp;ssl=1 384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 3 Portland Weather<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have I mentioned I\u2019m from Chicago?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chicago gets cold, snowy, windy, hot as fuck, humid as well, you name it. In Portland, moderate temperatures are a win. (Now, as I did mention in a previous post, climate change did partially destroy last summer in the pacific northwest, but overall, it\u2019s moderate as hell through the winter).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I speak on the phone with my mother each morning, and this past winter, she looked at her weather, and I made her read me Chicago\u2019s forecast while I put on my light jacket to go for a walk. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a thrilling way to start the day.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Frankly, I\u2019ll take the Portland version of winter. Meanwhile, my mom scrapes ice off her car and has to protect her face against -20 windchill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If I want snow, I can drive to a mountain. (see #6).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Portland has all four seasons the way grade school taught me I\u2019d see them. Now, in spring, I walk around and smell flowers start to bloom<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 4 Portland Restaurants<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My partner\u2019s biggest fear of moving to Portland was that he would hate the food. <\/span><b>Portland, however, has amazing food<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Their restaurants and food carts sprawl across the city and suburbs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Covid, almost every restaurant near me added semi-permanent, HEATED, <\/span><b>outdoor patios <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with covers year round. I can eat outside a brewery, sushi place, donut shop, or bar every night of the week and not even get halfway down my block.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, because it is Portland, they even developed a \u201clocal\u201d door dash called KUTO which allows me to make sure more money goes directly to the restaurant. Many locations also started letting you order and pay from your phone at the outdoor tables to keep their staff safe during these times while still making sure they are able to seat multiple groups with a short staff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Portland has many food tours<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, just walking around different neighborhoods, and each time I do one,\u00a0 I find a new favorite locale.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 5 Dog Friendly\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possibly due to the whole outdoor nature of the world out in Oregon: <\/span><b>dogs are everywhere<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Every apartment building by mine is dog friendly, people bring their dogs everywhere, and I can\u2019t walk across the street for a taco without petting 4 dogs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With numerous off-leash dog parks or off-leash sections of major parks (Laurelheart park, Mt. Tabor park, Irving Park\u2026) Portland itself is extremely dog-friendly. One of the main benefits of all things to do in portland lists is that most are dog-friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019d expect that more and more in a city. Oregon, however, stays dog friendly everywhere. I\u2019ve had no problems booking houses on the <\/span><b>coast<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or in other parts of the state that allow dogs at little or no extra cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most people bring dogs to wineries and breweries in the country and suburbs as well, and I\u2019ve never seen anyone get mad at a dog for just\u2026 being a dog. That means barking, nipping, crying, howling\u2026<\/span><b> people just embrace that doggy life.<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love #6 Mt. Hood<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can see Mt. Hood from my roof. I can see Mt. hood when walking my dog.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can see a fucking mountain every day (as long as the fog eases).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To anyone who grew up in a place where hills existed or mountains were prevalent, you may not understand the beauty of this for a great plains transplant, but let me tell you, seeing a mountain (or even a fucking hill) is huge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I grew up in a town where the only place to sled was a man-made hill<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The first 2 days of my drive\/move to Portland consisted of flatlands. The fact that when I look out the window of my apartment I can\u2019t see past sprawling hills, and I can see two mountains on a clear day, just does not get old.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I drink my tea (or wine), and I stare at the mountain and think \u201c<\/span><b>is this real?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d It\u2019s also great when you get up close to it, but just looking at it brings me a sense of peace I never had in Chicago.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 7 Oregon Coast<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am not a beach person<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I did not own a swimsuit for a decade (now I do because of hot tubs and one Christmas in Cancun). When people tell me in the summer that they want to lay on a beach, I just imagine all the places sand can get. That being said, I love going to the beach fully clothed and in coats, maybe dipping my toes in the water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Oregon Coasts are the perfect places for that<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They are chilly, the water is freezing, it doesn\u2019t get so sunny that people are lying out at all times, and there are hills and crags like Haystack Rock to look at. The Oregon coast is beautiful. I\u2019ve only been to two seaside cities, but I look forward to that list growing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love # 8 Wine<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Willamette Valley borders Portland metropolitan area, and wine fields fill every inch of it. (Hello Hyperbole). <\/span><b>Pinot Noir<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the grape of renown here, but wonderful roses, viogniers, and pinot gris show up everywhere. Travelers can take wine bus tours, you can rent a bike in wine country, or you can take a drive and do a tasting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things to do in Portland? You ask \u2014 WINE.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of my favorite wineries to visit is Abbey Road Farm. The farm\/bnb\/Vineyard houses multiple labels, beautiful animals, and scenery to die for. You can sip your wine tasting while reading a book, looking at goats who have their visages printed on bottles, or you can just sit and listen to other people\u2019s discussions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-178 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Abbey-Road-Farm.png?resize=225%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Abbey-Road-Farm.png?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/regularlywe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Abbey-Road-Farm.png?w=384&amp;ssl=1 384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to know how much that wine tasting and show cost me? Nothing cause I\u2019m a member, but if I wasn\u2019t it would be 20 bucks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>More loves to come&#8230;and more things to do in Portland<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each day I find something new to love about Portland. I love the way the air sends the yeasty smells of the breweries by my windows, I love that sometimes dogs sit at tables, I love that I can ride a bike in the middle of January to Powells City of Books (A whole post about this to come) and come home with a new read 20 minutes later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I love that Portland accepts people of all types, and I love that my city is covered in \u201cBlack Lives Matter\u201d posters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll be writing new posts like this all the time, but just have to brag about Oregon for a bit.<strong> If you\u2019ve visited, tell me about your favorite parts in the comments below.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many reasons to move and travel within Oregon.
