Never Been

[u/Mental_Protection228]

Hi all, I plan on traveling here for the first time for my birthday. I’m wanting to travel to one new place a year. I did a randomizer and landed on New Mexico! I’m from Indiana and I’ve never been to the west coast so this will all be brand new to me. I know pretty much nothing about what to do in Albuquerque so any tips or information you all could give me would be amazing! I love museums, aquariums, etc. I want to also try food and different spots we don’t have in Indiana. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Thanks everyone for all the info and the advice! I’ll save this for when I go in July and i’ll be sure to post some pictures!

Edit 2: Haha sorry i’m a bit of an idiot 😂 New Mexico definitely isn’t the west coast. Thanks for all your help again everyone!!

While here, make sure to eat some good New Mexican cuisine and sample both red and green chile. I agree with coming during Balloon Fiesta - it really is magical. But t if you’re going to do that, you’ll need to make your hotel reservations now - places fill up and get crazy expensive. Looking forward to seeing your photos whenever you come visit.
