Just west of Portland is an area that encompasses much of what there is to love about Oregon – but it’s not a name on everyone’s lips. If you’re not aware of it, you might drive right through it on your way to Tillamook or Seaside, but that would be a mistake. The Tualatin Valley’s proximity to both Portland and Coastal Oregon make it a great place to stop, and once you’re familiar with what it has to offer, you may want to extend your trip a few days and enjoy yourself among the Oregonians who make the Tualatin Valley their home.

Why compromise between your love for travel and your passion for golf when you can indulge in both in one luxurious package?
Oofos shoes challenge everything I thought I believed about comfort. Like most travelers who love spending hours traipsing around new cities—I have many times chosen to climb the steep, cobblestoned streets of Bairro Alto in Lisbon instead of taking a taxi, and consider walking the entire length of Central Park an ideal afternoon activity—I have to think about what's practical, and not going to hurt my feet 10 minutes into a 4-hour jaunt. But you won't see me Googling “comfortable walking shoes” and clicking the first option that appears. I still want to look good during all this exploring, you see. (What else am I doing in a fabulous city besides trying to feel entirely fabulous?)
Passionate about US travel, oddball and overlooked destinations, and secret societies, Lonely Planet Senior Director of Content Laura Motta hopped on the train from NYC to New Haven, Connecticut, for a weekend of not-quite academic adventure.
When I first started running, I put on a decade-old sports bra and began pounding the pavement, figuring that the girls bouncing around was simply something I’d have to get used to. But as my mileage increased, I found myself chafing severely—once, after an 18-mile run, I had a blood-stained outline of my bra on my skin. Needless to say, it was time for a serious upgrade.

When I was a kid, I took lots of trips—to the bathroom. I couldn’t put on weight, and everything I ate upset my stomach. In high school, I was finally diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, an incurable irritable bowel disease like ulcerative colitis, which my mother and brother also suffer from. Chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, resulting in diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and abdominal pain, among other symptoms, is debilitating at worst and embarrassing at best. Still, thanks to an amazing gastroenterologist, a major surgery, and a cocktail of prescription medications including Infliximab infusions every eight weeks, I haven’t let it stop me from seeing the world. In fact, in the past 18 months I’ve touched down on all seven continents in my career as a travel writer. The best part: I’m far from the only “Crohnie” out there collecting passport stamps; I’ve even met travelers with stoma bags.

I learned how to maintain dignity and self-respect, even in the face of humiliation, from my grandmother. My mother’s mother was widowed suddenly at the same age I was when I started Accidental Icon. She sold everything she owned, including her home in Connecticut, and moved to Dallas to live with her two sisters, all three widowed during the same year. As young women, the sisters performed as a trio; one sister played the harp, one the piano, and my grandmother the cello. They traveled often, and that is what they did for the next twenty years—this time without their instruments and husbands. We saw my grandmother during this period maybe four times a year. She would call and tell us to meet her at the New York piers or the airport, when she and her sisters were embarking on a European adventure or a trip to Asia. My grandmother, in an exquisitely tailored bouclé suit, would envelop us in a cloud of expensive perfume. The jingle of the charm bracelets she wore on her slender wrist announced her arrival. She would bring gifts—pearls from Japan, or perfume from Paris—upon her return. For me there were geisha dolls, books of watercolor scenes of cherry blossoms on rice paper with transparent covers, carved perfume bottles, and netsukes made of wood.
I started traveling solo nearly a decade ago. So far, I've visited every US state and nearly all the major US national parks on my own.
