June 2019

June is the perfect time of year to hop in the car and create your own adventure! This month I invite you to take a journey and discover something new in Portland. Immerse yourself in a current local art exhibit, find a sense of tranquility in the incredible Japanese garden, and stop into one of my all-time favorite linen stores. Together, these destinations provide a delightful day trip filled with adventure and intention.
