OH FUCK!

Waiting for your luggage to come still is the worst experience ever… Mine arrived the VERY LAST ONE from Portland last sunday afternoon…

I spent some time last Friday at Nike’s Campus in Beaverton, OR, located 20mn West of Portland. Around 5,000 employees work there and you get the feeling you are inside some US University, with a man made lake and fabulous sport facilities. An incredible visit thanks to my man Julien Cahn! Thanks again, talk to you soon!

Left Portland last Tuesday to go to San Francisco, CA. The Bay Area is probably one of my favorite area in the US. There just something in the air here (I’m not speaking about the freezing wind) that makes Northen California different from the rest. Oh, and I’m finally going to enjoy some €/$ crazyness!

Skateboarding in an almost empty (but still legendary) Burnside, watching Mount Hood on the horizon… Those were definitively some highlights of my stay in Portland last week. I’ll be back there in about 10 days…

Portland’s a great city. Think middle-size, liveable city with about 500,000 people. Although it’s the biggest city in Oregon, you can hardly get lost thanks to the Willamette River and its many bridges. People are really laid back and you can feel a strong concern for environmental issues. Here are a quick shots taken from the first day, dowtown. I will post more soon, think snowboarder heaven Mount Hood, skateboarding mecca Burnside, etc.
