Pacific Northwest Destinations

Living most of my life between Oregon and Washington, I’ve got this Pacific Wonderland covered. This section provides inspiring and valuable information to make your own deeper connections — with nature, loved ones, and yourself.

These are the primary regions of geography held on this website. If you want to see more specific categories click the Destinations link in the main menu at the top of this page.

Seattle

Whether you already live in the Emerald City or plan to visit, I’ve got you covered with all the ways to experience our great city. My approach might be more nature-forward than what you see in the usual lists of things to do.

But wait… there’s more
Washington State

Washington State offers such diversity, from the plush Olympic Peninsula to the bavarian charm of Leavenworth in the Cascade Mountains. If you see it here, it’s because I think you’ll be inspired too.

Oregon

Ah, my homeland of Oregon! My family has lived in and around the state for generations. Although I was born and lived my early adult life in Portland, most of my content is about the vast diversity of beautiful nature in the Beaver State.

Oregon Coast

My attraction to the sea started with regular family visits to the Oregon Coast as a child that turned into a lifetime of exploring up and down the entire 363-mile shore of the Pacific Ocean. Use years of knowledge offered in my articles to find your unique places in Oregon Coast nature.
