Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Hillside neighborhood just over km from downtown Portland - full of great restaurants, parks, the US's largest independent bookstore and so much more. There's a hiking trail nearby where you can do a lovely nearly all forested hike (don't notice the nearby houses) up to the highest point of Portland. A few options from a 5 km hike to a 12 km hike - all from the neighborhood.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our home, you can hike the Marquam Trail up to the highest point in Portland. A nice hike that can very from about 4 miles to 8 miles return depending on which way you go. We're just a mile from downtown Portland. Many great restaurants, galleries, high quality coffee shops. Also, great for getaways --- The coast is just under 2 hours away, wine country an hour, amazing Columbia River Gorge just over an hour, Seattle 2.5 hours and more!

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules
It is important for us to find the house in the same tidy condition we left it in. Also, the home is a triplex where I have tenants living above and below. Just ask you to be respectful of house rules / keep noise down, etc.
