How do you spark meaningful conversations with strangers? Today on City Cast Portland, we’re bringing in local tour guide and founder of Throw Snakes Tours, Dresden De Vera. He’s a self-described friend-for-hire and has some great tips on where to meet people in a city that some newcomers claim can be a bit stand-offish.
