    I first met Portland when attending JSConf this year. The city is simply amazing.

    It's relatively cheap, its residents seem very pleasant, its street are well laid out, it's biker friendly, it's in a beautiful area, it has great food ( loved all the food trucks ), it's youthful, it's walkable, it has great public transportation, it has a grassroots feel to it, it has a great tech vibe to it, it has great neighborhoods, it has great shopping, it seems unpretentious, etc, etc...

    Ever since I left, I've seriously thought about moving there.

    Wow, all those words and yet nothing really was said. I think all the microbrew and coffee shop amateur poetry nights in Portland have finally settled in.
