About this episode

Kayla gives a tour of Portland, sharing her experiences and recommendations for snacks, coffee, and activities.

Kayla stays in Portland OR and gives you a tour of a place that she has spent many summers growing up. Her stay this time is at The Bidwell Marriott near Pioneer Courthouse Square, giving her easy access to the region's TriMet Transit, and itself is very central to one of Portland's most famous shops Powell's Books. If you are considering a trip to the PNW, this episode offers suggestions on where to find great snacks, coffee, and an assortment of activities that may interest you or your family. And although OMSI may seem like a child-centric museum, it can be fun for adults traveling without kids as well.
