The NW end of Portland is also bustling with activity and with its adorable quaint boutiques and snazzy restaurants operating out of early 1900s homes the atmosphere rating is sent through the roof. Within walking distance of theaters, art museums, and lots of beautiful homes, it would be easy to get lost in love with this part of town.

Welcome to my travel blog! I am thrilled to begin this adventure, sharing my adventures with you! Did you know that wanderlust is a word originating from the Germanic language? The German word "wandern" means "to hike" and "lust" translates as "desire." Put together makes "a desire to hike." When we hear the word "wanderlust now, we usually think of traveling to distant places rather than it's perfect translation. It's actual meaning, however, fits beautifully into the purpose of this blog. Hiking just so happens to be one of my favorite past times and I'm really looking forward to highlighing some of the beautiful places in my own backyard. You'd probably be surprised at what is in your own local area, so don't count out places closer to home! Chances are, you have not seen it all! Look for posts about hiking in beautiful Southern Oregon, specifically the Rogue Valley! Coming soon!
