This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Portland chapter.
While most headed south for some warm weather that Portland wasn’t granting us, sophomores Aine Brooks and Lesley Dawson (who is a contributing writer for our HC Portland page!) went north for some fun in our neighborhood country, Canada. They slipped over the border of Washington to Vancouver, BC, where they took advantage of a few Canadian laws that don’t exist in the US. While most would wonder what the draw was to Canada, Lesley vouches that as her future homeland, she wanted to spend her 20th birthday where she would soon be living.
