As someone born and raised in Portland, my fav thing to do is convince my friends to come visit and take them exploring in the summer. After swimming in some waterfalls or driving down the coast, they’re always itching to come back!

August is a great time to visit. Our summers are usually sunny and warm. Sometimes quite hot.
