Things To Do
The Portland metropolitan area is so diverse in its offerings! Some options are to explore the nearly 50 vintage shops scattered around Portland proper, meander along the Willamette River Walk, or go on a low-key hike at Tyron Creek State Natural Area or Marquam Nature Park. There's good food, great bars, museums, and nature to be had! Below is a handful fun things we have enjoyed :) Check out some other recommendations here: shorturl.at/cMNW6
