Walter recommends Portland, Oregon as a top destination for this summer and all year round!
“Portland is a great base camp for traveling alone, with friends or family,” Walter said. “The city has great walkable neighborhoods, incredible natural beauty including spectacular waterfalls close to town, over 100 miles of hiking and biking trails. And one of the best things about Portland is its delicious food.
