DALLAS (KDAF) — Still planning your summer trip? Take the hassle out of traveling with these tips from travel journalist Justin Walter.
“My number one tip is that it’s all about connection,” Walter said. “Whether it’s a destination, an experience or an activity, you want to feel completely connected to it.”
Walter recommends Portland, Oregon as a great travel destination this summer and all year round.
“Portland is a great home base for solo travelers, friends, and families,” Walter says. “The city has great walkable neighborhoods, amazing natural beauty including spectacular waterfalls close to the city, and over 100 miles of hiking and biking trails. And one of the best parts of Portland is the delicious food.”
Finding a place to stay while on vacation can be hard, but the Wyndham is comfortable, convenient, and has a rewards program. If you’re traveling on a budget, they also have some great tech accessories to help you save money, like Spruce, H&R Block’s all-in-one mobile banking app. And of course, you’ll want to protect your home while you’re away, so investing in smart home lighting and security like Philips Hue Secure is important.
