Being a resident of South Korea, it is not often I have the chance to see old friends. After I secured a glorious three weeks off this year at work, I set about organizing my first trip to the West coast in over ten years.
My friend, Gina lives in Vancouver, Washington, which holds (bff) hands with Portland, Oregon over the Columbia River. It is super cute. It has good coffee, beer and food. It is a very enjoyable little city that you should visit when you are in Portland. So check out these pictures and get on down/up/over there!
