Profile Information

Which Portland neighborhood do you call home? Or, are you Moving to Portland?
Eliot
About Me:
Just sharing my excitement about the great city that I live in. I am hoping to meet lots of like minded people and together all of us will create a fun and useful website.

Other things about me...
I work fulltime in IT...but not on websites
I love to dabble in websites on the side due to the creative aspect (I like to make things)
I always thought my style was contemporary/modern, but now I live in a wonderful old Portland house that was built in 1900 - cool!
I am creative by nature
I love to take photos
I love to read...and write
I love to cook (and eat!)
I am a painter in my spare time (oil painting as opposed to say, painting my house...which needs a re-painting but I can't afford it)
I also make jewelry
On rare occasions, I will break out my old sewing machine, too
I love dogs - they are role models for living in the moment!
I love to be outside enjoying our NW beauty
I love to eat at Portland restaurants
I love taking walks under the old trees of Irvington
I love riding my bike on the Eastbank Esplanade
I love people, but I am a natural introvert
What do you love about Portland?
Geez, what DON'T I love about Portland? I built an entire website just because I like Portland so much. This city is awesome. I would not want to live anyplace else.
My music:
so much music, so little time. My music is whatever Jonathan burned for me that week, and all of it is fantastic.
What's your favorite Portland neighborhood and why?
Ha! There are so many! I love NE PDX because of the diversity (and yeah, cause I live there)

Hi! Let me first say that I love the site, the community, and the blog. I've been subscribing to the blog since long before I actually made it to Portland, and I look forward to it every week!

But this ha really been bothering me--I came to Portland from Louisiana, where, as I'm sure you know, Mardi Gras is a big deal. That's why I cringe every time I see that "S" at the end of "Mardi" in a blog post. No S! Just a heads up.

Keep up the awesome work!

How can I get my business listed under your rental resources for apartments? I emailed you a couple of weeks back but have not received a response.

Thanks!
