Explore local oddities with odd local

POP QUIZ:

Are you here to absorb authentic Portland culture?

BONUS CREDIT:

Are you trying to live like a local while you are?

Because Portland is a MILLENNIAL PLAYGROUND best understood when explored like someone from here.

Rather than focus on how to make more money, Portlanders focus on how to enjoy their time.

WEIRD, RIGHT?

You came to see what sets Portland apart,

and what better way of finding out than living like a local yourself?

This experience is a Portland buffet of local favorite pastimes, including:

Lounging at a hidden tea house where we'll share hot drinks among chill bohemian decor.

Stopping by a local artist consignment store that feels like a gift shop for the Portland street art scene.

Sipping drinks at an aquarium bar featuring tropical fish and sunken ruins.

Detouring through what feels like a natural history museum where all the specimens are on sale.

And to top it all off, we'll visit a dispensary and a food cart pod that got featured on Netflix's Street Food USA.

To explore the city like a true Portlander, I’ll be your guide to show you where you’d go and how you’d do it. Along the way, I'll enlighten you to the community's culture and provide custom recommendations on how to live like the locals!
