If you don't like hiking, backpacking, snowshoeing, skiing, windsurfing, kayaking, rock climbing, drinking beer and experiencing the highest frequency of microbreweries in the US (world?), exploring a wide variety of restaurants and places to eat from high class restaurants to fantastic food carts, music, interesting shows such as Live Wire, coffee, numerous places to catch plays, concerts and lectures, driving a knife through the heart of a doughnut, wine tasting in one of the best wine regions in the US, going for a quick drive to the Cascades, the Gorge, to the coast, the high desert, or through the Willamette Valley, interesting clubs, playing on a dodgeball team, experiencing roller derby, eating pizza and drinking while catching a movie at McMenamins, riding MAX without pants, going to a Blazers game, standing proud with the Timbers Army at a soccer game, etc....etc... then yeah, Portland would be a pretty boring place.
