100 Things to Do in Portland, OR Before You Die

From world-class dining and spectacular outdoor adventures to quirky pastimes and raucous sports fans, Portland is a city with something for everyone.  In 100 Things to Do in Portland Before You Die we have done our best to give readers a taste of everything Portland has to offer.  We love brewpubs, tattoos and major league soccer. We pride ourselves on being hipsters, runners and foodies. It’s a city as diverse as those who live here and whether you’re moving to Portland or just visiting for a weekend, this book will provide tips, itineraries and overviews of some of the city’s most notable, notorious, and hopefully a few yet-unknown, hot spots.


A native Oregonian, Ann Smith has lived in Portland since 2000. She proudly owns the local PR firm, A.wordsmith., and avidly enjoys the city’s culinary scene, sports teams, and outdoor patios where cider is served on sunny days. Allison Symonds moved to Portland in 2014, and the pine trees, Thai food, and wine soon won her over. Her guest room is now the resting spot of choice for countless friends and family members visiting the Pacific Northwest.
