The days may be shorter this time of the year but that doesn’t stop us from getting outside and enjoying the fantastic nature PNW has to offer. This is in Portland’s Hoyt Arboretum, a free botanical garden and tree museum.

Coming from a tropical home, it was a challenge adapting to this kind of weather. But it made me appreciate the sunny days even more.

After a week-long magical (and super fun) trip to Disneyworld, my introvert self needs a bit of reset to properly get back to my routine. Starting a slow yet active weekend just does the trick for me. A walk/run along the Columbia River Renaissance Trail literally and figuratively takes my breath away. We cap it off by visiting the weekend Farmer’s Market at the end of our trail.

As someone coming from a tropical country, I had to adjust to the many changes that come with living in the Pacific Northwest. For one, adapting to the weather was a challenge at the start, but the beauty of this place made it all worth it.

I’ve grown fond of the mountains, waterfalls, towering trees, rain showers (yes, I’ve gotten used to them!), and the satisfying feeling of completing a hike.

Nature has a way of captivating your heart, no matter where you come from.
