- An overview of New Mexico and why it is my favorite state in the country. I've traveled all throughout the U.S. and have found New Mexico to be the state that checks off the most boxes for me. In this video I examine the physical landscape, climate, cities and cultural aspects of the state that makes it my favorite and why I recommend you visit there.

Shhhh... We're trying to stay a secret 😉
My favorite bumper sticker - “New Mexico-It ain’t new and it ain’t Mexico”
I'm a 50-year native. I always tell people from other areas that New Mexicans are people who chose quality of life over money. Because there is no money here.
My home state, thank you; it truly is the land of enchantment! We also have some of the bluest skies in the united states due to the altitude and clean air.
I’m from Ireland and New Mexico is my favourite state and I have the flag above my bed
I would quibble a bit with your description of the Hispanic population here as mostly Mexican. In Northern New Mexico many people here trace their ancestry back to the Spanish settlers who came back In the late 1500s and through the 1600s. They often describe themselves as Spanish or Hispano. The community of folks from the many small towns in Northern New Mexico are often called Norteños. One other point is their are 3 main populations of Indigenous people here in New Mexico; there are the Navajo or as they call themselves the Diné, there are the Apache Communities and 19 different Pueblos, each with their own distinct culture which adds to the richness of the state’s culture.
I really appreciate the fact you point out our cuisine in not Mexican nor Tex-Mex, as our food is a huge part of our culture. For what its worth though the Navajo language is called Diné, not navajo, and its mostly only an official language in the north western part of the state.
I'm from Alaska, and I consistently tell anyone who will listen that New Mexico is by far the most beautiful place I've ever visited. My husband is from Italy and we live in Milan, and he and I agree that if we ever move back to the US, we'd like to move to Albuquerque. Everything about the city appeals to us, not just the scenery but the people too. Amazing state, my absolute favorite too.
I moved away for a little while to CA while enrolling my kids in school they proudly said including the principal we cannot accept documents from another country my oldest daughter rolled her eyes and responded and you people are in the teaching business
New Mexico also has Blake’s Lotaburger, which is my favorite burger joint when traveling through the state.
I lived in Las Cruces for a few years where my wife did her Masters at NMSU. My wife's from El Paso, I'm from Juarez and welove New Mexico, USA too!!
Some history that was omitted was that the first atomic bomb was built and detonated in New Mexico. The dozens of Indian Pueblos were also overlooked. Almost every pueblo also has its own gambling casino if that's your thing.
As a geography teacher in El Paso, nice to see you like the land of enchantment. It's a hidden secret of the US.
Hello from the Ramah Navajo Reservation. I enjoyed the video. And, I love my state of NM.
It's cool you like our state! Just remember it's not just the Navajo natives that are here. There's Pueblo natives here too. Acoma Pueblo, Laguna Pueblo, Taos Pueblo, Santo Domingo Pueblo etc.
as someone who lives in new mexico, i feel very ✨appreciated✨
Your video is the most comprehensive yet on our state. I first saw New Mexico when I was a mere youth of 13. I vowed then that I would return and live there. It took eight years, but I returned at age 21 and have lived here, happily, ever since.
I’ve lived all over the US and finally made the move to Taos New Mexico last year from Sun Valley, ID. I drove into town having never been there. I was instantly under the spell of the land of enchantment. The most beautiful state and people ever. That’s why it’s an artist Mecca. And not just painters but also writers. It’s so goddamn inspiring. You hit everything I love about the state. I tell people it’s as close as you can get to being in another country while still in the US. It’s just a completely different culture. Thank you! It’s the hidden gem of all the US.
this made me happy to hear about my state in a positive note! thank you!
I moved here (New Mexico) from Houston 3 and a half years ago and it has been one of the best decisions that I have made in my life!!!!
