Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I am moving to Portland in January 2012 but I am going to visit this coming week to check out how I like it. I would love any info any one has about Portland: work, where to live, where to find places to live, bookshops, farmers markets, parks, transportation, neighborhoods, downtown, places to hangout, best kept local secrets, best places to eat, etc. Anything you can tell me will be helpful. I have done some research in books, but I am looking for something beyond the tourist guides. I want to experience the local culture.
I am going to be attending PSU in a graduate book publishing program in the winter semester.

I’m working on a logo design for my own business (go figure right?) and I’m in a
graphic design related field (I work at a photo studio right now) and I majored in communication design. I’m starting a small company at farmers markets and the like and I make handmade soaps and bath bombs and fragrances and stuff. In my business plan (kind of like my creative brief) my niche is tropical and hawaiian type, beachy, fun, youthful scents and aesthetic. I’m a huge fan of David Carson, so I wanted to take some inspiration from him into my work, but I want my logo to reflect sort of a carefree, fun, tropical, surf, beach vibe, but I need help with my logo. Do you think it’s appropriate to have a beachy fun vibe to a logo that specializes in tropical scents and soaps? The soaps are all different colors, but most are bright and fun and neon in color.
I can design for a lot of other people, but I’m obviously having one heck of a time designing my own. Help please?
How can I show you guys a picture?
