Underrated state. No joy like eating a green chile breakfast at Frontier Cafe (Albuquerque) or El Jacalito (Las Cruces). White Sands is a wild place (the sand stays cool and feels different than most sands) and the drive coming down from Colorado is very dangerous but it’s worth seeing those dwarf pines covered in snow - I’ve never seen anything like it. I like the people there too, everyone’s friendly and hospitable and most of them speak my language. -Saguiv Rosenstock
Silver City, Madrid, Deming, NOT Santa Fe it‘s overrated and darksided, Albuquerque, RUIDOSO and Cloudcroft (both a favorite vacation spot for Texans because they’re high up in the mountains in the middle of Lincoln National Forest). Bohemian, quirky, easy-going, friendly people, lots of cool little shops with handmade goods and cheap antiques, unique historical sites like the Gila Cliff Dwellings, countless hiking trails, fresh desert air, green chiles, and the sunsets will take your breath away !!!
It’s very recently been made a national park and it’s a weird, otherworldly, and stunning place. The world’s largest gypsum dunefield… there’s sand and it’s white
returning to PI after a wedding planning induced hiatus… everything they say is true. you feel like you’re on drugs bc it’s like unlocking a new level of happiness, it goes by in 12 seconds, you’ll have the hugest emotional hangover of your life for a week, it is the most fun a girl can have. hugely recommend yall consider doing this!
a few times a month i wake up in a cold sweat and absolutely have to list all of the top 200 metro areas in the US and also every country in the world or i'll die
