Jock's TravelBlog Because sometimes I go places

Portland

This travelblog is a lie. OK, not so much a lie as not the truth, or not the whole truth. It is just one view of the truth. It is my truth, but there are others. One for every person that goes there. All I ever wanted to do was put down my thoughts, and tell an entertaining story. I hope I succeed. Still there are things I haven't written about: work, thoughts too personal to commit to the page, and events that didn't seem to fit in the narrative.

I am acutely aware that I have only really seen one part of on city of an entire country. It's like judging the US by New York, or France by Paris. I was only there long enough to scratch the surface and see a little of what lies beneath. I know I will be back, and stay longer next time. Even still I will be an outsider, and have an outsiders perspective. Find other perspectives, look at them all and maybe you will see the Truth with a capitol T. Better yet, if you are even remotely tempted to go after reading this, then I cannot but encourage you. Find your own truth, and add it to the mix.
