Entranced by Portland, Oregon since 2017.
On my last day in Seattle, I strolled across the campus of University of Washington, and oh wow was that a magical experience! Hear me geek out over the amazing architecture and dream-like walking paths, plus additional thoughts on the nearby shopping district of University Village.
Top vloggers who have reached the pinnacles of their career tell us not to obsess over views and relative performance over time and other metrics of "success" in their creative field. But that got me thinking: what SHOULD we obsess over? How do we know we're crushing it as content creators? What should success look like?
Well OK, it's one of the top "pop up" markets (meaning everyone completely sets up and tears down everything in a day) in the United States which is open year-round. I think that's pretty awesome. Plus lots of great scenes of traversing downtown Portland in the fall!
We shouldn't feel guilty about the technology choices that we make. Just be mindful of what those choices are.
What if you are in the middle of a creative slump, an "existential crisis," or just a transition to a new season of life?
I review two of my favorite iPad Pro accessories here on the first episode of Your Valuable: the Lamicall S Stand and the Ztotop 12.9" Case.
I did something totally stupid…I accidentally erased my iMac hard drive which had a full edit of this video. Luckily I recovered the raw footage, so this is my SECOND attempt at putting a vlog episode together. I visited Bothell, WA — the place my mom wrote a piece of Celtic music for entitled “The Woods of Bothell” — as well as the way cool Gasworks Park in Seattle.
It's a very, very wet day in Portland, but I'm here to brave the elements and tell you all about Forest Park, one of the crown jewels of the Portland, Oregon area. Don't miss some of the epic waterfalls I saw on the hike!
What on Earth 1 (or any other Earth in the multiverse) does essentialism have anything to do with Captain Cold, Wabi-Sabi, or Blade Runner 2049? Let's find out in today's Essentialism Challenge!
I stayed overnight in download Portland, Oregon so I could get some awesome timelapse and slow-motion footage of the Willamette River and the city. Happy to report that Portland delivered big time!!!
Theaters, urban parks, old churches, classic 19th and early 20th-century architecture — Portland's Cultural District has it all.
Do you ever feel like a failure? Ever worry you're not measuring up, that "they" are always more successful than you are?
One minute, I was strolling through the quaint neighborhoods and gentle parks of west Hillsboro…next thing you know, I'm totally LOST in the the woods! Do I ever make it out alive???
Yes, Portland has some of the best coffee around. It's sort of our thing.
At last, the video you most definitely weren't waiting for, but got anyway!
