The goal of this group is to explore and experience the unique culture of Portland and the northwest. Think of it as tourism for locals. About 50% of the people on every event are newcomers to Portland or to the group. It's a great way to meet new people while enjoying new experiences.

Just a great group of folks who enjoy unwinding with a couple drinks after a long work week.

I moved to Portland almost a year ago with my partner. We only knew her cousin and no one else. Needless to say, our social meter was definitely in the red a few months later: ( I struck up a conversation with a woman on a bus, mentioned I didn't know anyone and she suggested joining meetup. We attended our first meetup two weeks later, a second one the day after. From those meet ups , we met 6 fabulous men and close to a dozen fantastic women. People from all different careers with an age range …

Weeee!  (This isn't one of those stuffy groups with complicated or str …

Hello ladies! This is a Meetup group in their 30's and 40's who live in Portland proper and would like to make new friends while participating in fun activities. I've been a member of other Meetups and noticed that a lot of the events are held in the Beaverton/Tualatin areas. So I decided to start a group for Portland residents who prefer majority of Meetups to be held within Portland. And for those who also find that it's harder to make lasting friendships the older you get... Or those that a …

Hey dudes and betties, I just moved to Portland all the way from Michigan, so like a lot of you, I don't know many people around here. I gotta say (and I get the feeling that you're thinking the same thing) I'm getting a little burned out of all of these Meetup groups where the age range is from 20-40ish.  Personally, I don't think that is a good mix of people... many of us are single and ready to mingle, still enjoy the bar nights.... you get the idea.  Join up and let's have some fun and meet …

Peace is something that everyone wants. Though we search for it in things around us, it's within us all the time, and readily available to experience all the time, too. Peace doesn't create or come from an absence of war. Rather, wars happen as a result of the war that people fight within themselves. But peace is what can end wars, by each person first ending their own inner wars. Portland Friends of Peace isn't about ideas, philosophy, religion or spirituality — nor are we against any of these. …
