We had a great time in Naomi's house--she made us feel welcome immediately, and it was was one of those moments where we knew we were going to be friends. She was kind enough to show us a map and give us a tour of her house--which helped us locate ourselves--and kicked off what ended up being a really positive experience with her and Portland.
Her house is in a great and interesting part of Portland. It's a beautiful home to begin with, but add chickens and all sorts of edible plants in the garden and it truly felt like paradise--at least coming from Brooklyn.
We shared a few bottles of wine and a meal with Naomi and had a great time. We would love to see Naomi and visit portland again!
