I’m unsure but it would be fun to stay in a hotel
What’s the stars means
Like what’s the difference between a 3 star Hilton and a 5 star Hilton?

Will be disgusting and have bed bugs.
Also I’ve rarely been to Portland which area is to be avoided. The 5 star is in downtown and cost more and the 3 star is in Washington square.

May not happen though and I might not go i dont know.:s

I don't know what you get for the extra two stars, a three star would still be clean.

I think you should go if you are able to cope mentally with it. It will be an experience. When I have not done

anything outside of my routine for a while I find doing anything different becomes harder.

I need to take my own advice and go somewhere.

I live in Portland and there are many great places to visit that are worth your time and money.

Yes unless we go to Seattle which I don’t think we should.

You should go on an adventure if you're considering doing that.

I thought you said your family was quite poor. How will you be able to afford a holiday?

I'm Italian, I visited Seattle once, a few years ago and I must say that it's an amazing place, like a little gem surrounded by water and mountains. You should definitely go and enjoy your stay! :D

My sister is going use her tax return.

$1,000 trip isn’t expensive for 3.
She originally wanted to go to California

Ahhh Okay. I thought you got tax returns at the end of financial year, like June/July. That's the way it works here at least. Did she get it recently or did she save it?

We haven’t gotten them yet. It’ll probably be next month or so.
I’ll get tax returns too.
So we won’t go until month after she gets i I guess if it happens at all.

If not I could maybe save for myself, though peony wast of money .
