    Amazing Coffee and Eats at Proud Mary - Portland Brunch

    I think many people would agree that brunch is one of the favorite weekend pastimes shared among Portlanders. And I’m in no way trying to be cute by calling Portland brunch a hobby. Any Portland resident knows that you have to give up a good chunk of your day if you want to participate in this beloved weekend activity.

With that in mind, a few months ago, my sister Ale and I started planning a trip to Tulum to celebrate me entering into a new decade.  Although my birthday is in January, we decided that December would be the best time to head down.
