Direct, year-round flights now connect London with Portland, Oregon, where Jacqui Agate finds a thriving indie shopping scene that puts artisans front and centre.
“Portland isn’t afraid to show its workings. That’s fitting for a city as liberal and offbeat as this one, where alternative culture and open hearts rule, and where “Keeping Portland Weird” – the city’s longtime slogan – is not just marketingese, but an aphorism that people live by.”
