I’m sitting in the Seattle Alaska Airlines lounge complimentary of my Lounge Club card. I’m waiting here for my flight to Austin which I’ll be in for the next week to partake in SXSW. I’ve heard great things about the conference/festival/party and decided I finally needed to go check it out. I have been to […]

As much as I travel, I really don’t have too many problems usually, however, there are those days I just can’t control. Finishing up a trip in Austin, Texas with a number of my coworkers from the Portland office, we ended up being stranded due to flash flooding from some terrible weather around the Austin

Last Sunday, I enjoyed my fourth time biking over all the bridges that cover the Willamette River in Portland in a bicycle ride called the Bridge Pedal. I love bringing new people on this ride and sharing it with old ones. Rubbo and myself met on this ride through our friend Paige in 2012 making

I just got back from Mexico a couple days ago. Akumal, Mexico in fact. Destination wedding was the primary reason, but for a bonus I enjoyed a fantastic vacation meeting some awesome people and enjoying a chance to relax.

Last weekend I went hiking to the top of Mt. St. Helens for the 4th time! My friend Ryan and I have been hiking it together since 2013 and though it’s grueling, the view from the top and the glacade down makes it all worthwhile.

This weekend, Ixa turned a year older and to celebrate I took her hiking up Dog Mountain with Ilona, Ryan, his wife and their dog. Ixa is a strong 75 pound pup and even though she was worn out as much as I was when we finished, she was a trooper and kept us going.

I’ve heard many great things about New Orleans, and have wanted to go for some time, so when my friend Kelly mentioned a couple weeks back at a party that he was going there for Jazz Fest, the want was written on my face. He soon asked if I’d want to join him and some

This weekend, my friend Cassie and I went on a hike around Horsetail Falls. For someone who has almost lived in Portland five years, I’ve never been to this location. Just makes me realize that there is a ton of the Gorge area that I haven’t seen yet. We talked a few days before about

Last Monday, Burning Man 2014 came to a close for me. I was sad to leave this new home of mine, but glad to get back to greener pastures (literally, it was a white desert out there and getting back to green Oregon was so great!). My experience of the event was very positive and
