Consejos para la ciudad
Antes de que te vayas
The weather can change on a dime!
Check the forecast but still go prepared for anything (dress in layers, have a jacket handy). If you hate the weather, wait 10 minutes because it will likely change. One thing to watch is that a warm day can, and often does, swing 40 degrees by 9:00 PM.
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Slow down
I'm from Phoenix -- it's a slower pace in Oregon. You kind of have to learn to enjoy it but, do enjoy it :)
