Today’s journey was a delightful mix of whimsy and wonder. From a museum that felt like it was built just for me to jaw-dropping mountain views, Saffron and I discovered that New Mexico’s charm knows no bounds.
New Mexico Day 3
Today was all about ancient history and stunning natural beauty as Saffron and I ventured out of Santa Fe for a day trip to Bandelier National Monument. We climbed, hiked, and marveled at the ingenuity of the Ancestral Puebloans who made this rugged landscape their home.
New Mexico Day 2
Good Morning, Adventurers!
Day 2 in the Land of Enchantment was a whirlwind of colors, creativity, and chile cheeseburgers. Saffron and I had an absolute blast exploring Santa Fe’s quirkier side, and we’re just getting started.
New Mexico Day 1
Hello, Adventurers!
The first day of my 56-week journey across the United States has officially begun, and where better to start than the enchanting state of New Mexico? My big sister Saffron, always up for an artistic adventure, has joined me as we explore the Land of Enchantment. Our mission? To soak in the culture, history, and natural beauty, all while navigating life as pint-sized travelers.
Welcome to Santa Fe!
Our day started in the heart of Santa Fe. Upon arriving, we checked into The Inn of the Five Graces, a boutique hotel that’s like stepping into a vibrant Southwest dream. The place is a feast for the eyes with its colorful tiles, woven textiles, and cozy nooks. It is known for its beautiful fusion of art, culture, and history, embodying the spirit of Santa Fe's artistic and cultural heritage.
The Inn of the Five Graces is housed in a collection of historic adobe buildings that date back to the 17th century. The inn’s name reflects its focus on the five senses, with each room offering a sensory experience through textiles, sounds, sights, smells, and touches, with intricate, global-inspired designs that blend traditional Southwestern elements with Eastern influences. The inn was originally constructed as a home and was later transformed into the elegant retreat it is today. The design elements often feature Persian rugs, handcrafted furniture, and vibrant colors, bringing an eclectic and international flair to its luxurious accommodations.
The best part? A snug little hideaway behind a cabinet—perfect for a mouse looking for privacy!
Tip for Tiny Travelers: Bring a small flashlight for exploring those hidden mouse-friendly spots in fancy hotels.
