V-Love’s Lonely Planet

Portland rocked.  Definitely my kind of city.  Reminds me of Austin a bit, only better.  The city not only has a young crowd but it’s a go green city with plenty of outdoor activity to suit me.  And the best part, I can see the mountains.  The company I interviewed with reminds me a lot of the people at my last job; young, energetic, and intelligent.  The trip ended with a day spent with an old family friend showing me around.  Taking me to the weekly Saturday market, for a small hike in the woods, and my first taste at Vegan food.  I did get an offer but I am still waiting to hear from the job I interviewed for in Colorado.

And this week, it’s off to Arizona for a few days for some interviews with an Aerospace company.  I’ll be staying in a Spa Resort, major change from the backpacker hostels.  Hopefully I get some time to go hiking in the mountains of Tucson. 

At least all of the interviews are giving me the opportunity to keep traveling .
