Join me for an ultra high resolution real time driving tour of Artesia, New Mexico!

✦ GEAR I USE ✦

📸 Cameras:
---------------------------------------------------
I get a lot of questions about the cameras I use. Here are my main cameras:
This is a very durable camera. It withstands the elements and can go places other cameras can’t. There are many accessories available for GoPro cameras which makes the camera endlessly customizable and versatile. If you are intending to make vlogs or travel videos where you speak, you might prefer the creator edition which comes with more accessories.

This little handheld camera is very easy to pack because of its small size. It is not as rugged as the GoPro, but is easy to carry and make stable video. I use the creator combo version which includes an additional battery and a microphone that can be clipped to your shirt for improved audio which I like for filming walking tours.

🔋 Other useful tech:
---------------------------------------------------
This device attaches to a smartphone to help record more stable video.
An extra battery for the GoPro.
A flexible and durable charging cable that charges quickly.
These are great for recharging my phone or cameras while traveling, and are also useful for power outages.
This battery connects directly to the back of iPhones that have MagSafe and can charge the phone without the use of a cable.
This memory card works on most small cameras, and can record for a long time.
I take this hard drive with me when I travel so that I can back up the footage that I record on my trip. It fits in one of the pockets inside my tech case, and holds a lot of footage.

✈️ Travel gear I like:
---------------------------------------------------
This durable bag fits easily into the overhead compartments on airplanes and the straps can be configured to be comfortably worn as a backpack, which is nice for long walks through an airport.
I have both sizes, and have used the larger one consistently for many years. They are incredibly durable, and nicely fit all of my camera gear. I like that I can fit a GoPro inside of the larger one, along with cables, SD Cards, a battery and a small hard drive. People traveling with less gear or less space in their bags might prefer just the smaller pouch.
This towel spreads out large, but packs up tiny and dries quickly. I have disliked every other pack towel I have ever used, but this one is made of cotton and feels soft and does not have a funny smell.
Buying food when traveling gets expensive, so I try to pack as much food as I can. This cooler keeps things fresh for a long time. It also means that I can pick up local foods when I go places and bring them home with me.

🎧 Audiobooks:
---------------------------------------------------
I listen to lots of audiobooks while on the road. Get started with a free audiobook here:

I feel teary-eyed just watching this. Truthfully, I do miss that town so much.

[JulezWinnfield]

Walmart and the Adobe Rose are the two most exciting hotspots in Artesia, NM.

Thank you for this, me and my husband are trying to decide if we should move there, I want sunshine and no snow, but also with friendly people.

Very nice drive. I pedaled 7.41 miles on the stationary bike while watching this. Was this on a Sunday, because there were very few people around and most of the parking spots were open in downtown? I am also impressed by how nice and clean the town is, the roads looked taken care of and almost all of the houses were well maintained. I am virtually traveling from Las Cruces to Chatham MA on my apartment gym's recumbent cycle (it tells me how many miles I've pedaled) I just finished pedaling to Cloudcroft and am building up the miles to Artesia. I have given my mileage a handicap of 4x so for every mile I pedal, I multiply it by 4 and use that number for the actual mileage. So for today, I would give myself 30 miles toward reaching Artesia from Cloudcroft (I rounded up the number) I really like your style so I have subscribed to you.

On so many turns, you broke my heart! I miss my home!

[jcee]

I have 3 oil refineries in my county. Fed by supertankers.
Those physical facilities are surrounded by acres of'
vacated farms. Around which are fences. None are
like Artesia . Yup, too friendly might be a problem,
if Hell is coming for breakfast.
