Rec'd on 🗺️ I want to solo travel in the summer - where are the places you’ve gone solo and enjoyed?
new mexico
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 !!!

I loved spending time near Madrid. Taos had amazing food too. I can’t wait to go back and have dinner at Shed Project (which is somewhere between Santa Fe and Taos I think — a bit elusive which makes me all the more intrigued)

leen The Curse was so deeply satisfying to me to watch as a lifelong resident of that general geographic region. Felt good to have representation 🥲🫶

aidanaguirre it’s actually the best and most chill place to visit!!!! I would live there but I’m afraid I’m not built for the desert and in fact it wants to kill me. But my heart is there… ALSO there’s a crazy ass resort you can stay at that’s on a 550,000-acre owned by Ted Turner where you can larp as Jane Fonda

aidanaguirre sameee I’m pretty sure she designed the interior of one of the guesthouses they have. There’s also a resort in Cloudcroft where judy garland, Clark gable and pancho villa have stayed and it’s extremely HAUNTED

New Mexico
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

Hot sunny Border town in the desert southwest nestled against the mountains
Closest town is a Mexican sister city right across the river, then a smattering of smaller New Mexican towns scattered through the desert, then absolutely nothing for hours—just empty space, sand, dust, sparse vegetation, and the open road. You can drive something like eight hours one way before reaching civilization. There’s not much to do there and sometimes it felt like a place time forgot… haven’t been back there in a few years.

Never changing
My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
