One city that surprised me was Portland, Oregon. I had heard mixed reviews and didn’t expect much beyond the usual sights, but I was blown away by its vibrant arts scene, delicious food options, and friendly vibe. The lush parks and unique neighborhoods added to the charm, making it a great place to explore. Plus, the coffee culture is top-notch! It was definitely more dynamic and welcoming than I anticipated. How about you? Which place exceeded your expectations?
