Get out of town. No seriously, let's go somewhere.

Traded in overcast Portland for the sunny Oregon Coast. Currently checking in from Yachats, OR. Hope everyone's having a great Friday! #506iv

Prime Portland real estate. Should I put a deposit on this Witch's Castle? 😜 #portlandia #506iv #woodlandadventures

Donut worry, be happy. Blue Star Donuts in Portland is wayyyy better than Voodoo in my opinion! #506iv #travelwriting #foodie

How about let's post our real profile pics on Saturday, since it'll be officially after this class has concluded. Make sure to use hashtags #506iv and #guesswho

@JohnnyBradyQU Thank you, my fellow intrepid adventurer! :) #506iv

Embracing brunch culture in Portland on this fine overcast day. #506iv

@JohnnyBradyQU I'm just always cold. Notice the varying amounts of attire in the photo :) It was hot mostly, but in the mornings and at night, I wore at least a light jacket. #506iv

My solo trip to British Columbia included a guided 4-day tour of the Canadian Rockies with several young people from all over the world. In fact, I was the only American and monolingual speaker...I had so much to learn from the many amazing travelers! #506iv #sentimental

@mabel_mabry That warms my heart to hear :) #506iv

Fave Blogs Part 7: Couldn't not mention fellow travel blogger @mabel_mabry! I enjoyed her narratives about the various travels she took. They went beyond how-to's and lists, which can sometimes be overdone. #506iv

@DottysDashboard Lake Louise is the photo of the lake without the kayak :) #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

@DottysDashboard Our tour guide told us that Lake Louise in Alberta is the most-photograpphed lake in North America. Not sure how that is measured though! #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

Can(ada) you believe how beautiful Alberta is?! #506iv #Rockies #solotrip

As I sit here in the Vancouver Airport waiting for my flight to Portland, I am very happy I embarked on this spontaneous adventure and am already dreaming of my next destination! #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

This was our last night together; we had a hilarious s'more demonstration. As a lifelong introvert, I thought being stuck with strangers for 4 days would be difficult but it was far from it. In fact, I just had brunch with my new friend from the Czech Republic :) #506iv

Fave Blogs Part 6: Really liked @wellnessginger's "I Hate Natural Wellness: Here’s Why" post. As a skeptic of all-natural remedies myself, it was fun reading her take on the subject, plus the title is an attention-grabber! #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

Fave Blog Post Part 5: @AustinLearns's devil's advocate blog about music streaming services was definitely one of his best works. As a faithful Spotify user, it was interesting and eye-opening to learn about how artists are affected by our streaming. #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

Fave Blogs Part 4: I enjoyed @MElizab25935342's overall commentary about the future of brick and mortar retail (specifically fashion-focused) stores. I definitely learned a lot about some of the challenges retailers will continue to face in the future! #506iv

[TravelLane @_TheTravelLane]

Fave Blogs Part 3: Major kudos to @JohnnyBradyQU for constantly updating us about his road trip adventure. I was super impressed by the quality of the photos and content, and the fact that you had time to do it all! Especially enjoyed your post about your family. #506iv

Fave Blogs Part 2: High praise for @orcajourneys's commitment to playing the part of marine animal on Twitter. I always pictured her (his?) Tweets as coming from an orca, versus a grad student behind a screen. I really enjoyed reading your posts about environmental issues #506iv
