My experience in Colorado
Despite being my neighboring state to my home state, I didn’t start exploring Colorado until 2018 and since then, I have visited more times than I can count!
Colorado is all about mountains, but there’s a part of the state people often overlook: the vast network of canyons that run throughout the western edge of the state, including one of its four national parks!
Colorado truly has it all and I have made it my goal to visit every town, every national park and every “off the beaten path” part of the state. I hope I am able to help you discover something new here!
