I'm looking for some advice, given I've never been north of San Francisco and am from the east coast. I'm planning on doing at least 5 days in a rental car with intentions of stopping in at least Seattle, Portland, and Vancouver. I was hoping to get some time on the beach coastline as well. I'd like to get a hike in on one of the days as well. Any suggestions for other cities to stop by and check out? Same goes for places to avoid, I've heard the pacific northwest has become a haven for white supremacists (and I am asian). Thanks
