THE BITTER BITCH’S GUIDE TO
New Mexico
Did you know?
Less people live in the entire state of New Mexico than the current population of Phoenix
A month in New Mexico…
It was a whirlwind. Went a lot of places, saw a lot of things, and basically visited every corner of the state in the short but hectic time I was there. Not a straight shot but a lot of looping, back tracking, and breaking down took this quick pitstop to a five week long adventure across the desert, through the mountains, and back.
The thing I loved the most about New Mexico - the lack of population - making exploration so easy, but less people means less amenities and that sure was a tough one to adapt to. Coupled with no In ‘n Out burger and let’s just say, I couldn’t wait to get back to my big city way of life. But it was an amazing adventure while it lasted.
