Nevada is a strange state. It feels very simple to be here. Living here is easy. Too easy. It almost feels like a spell, a land that has magic worked on it in order to keep people comfortable and complacent and starting businesses and spending money with ease. Everything man-made feels huge. The highways, the casinos, the signs, and the stores. The desert is huge and vast too. It feels like no other desert I have experienced, and I have lived in a few over the last year and a half. It feels much creepier and more alien, empty and foreboding. The mountains off in the distance look like a landscape transplanted from Mars. It's quite the change from being in the high desert of New Mexico or the liveliness of the Coachella Valley. I don't quite know what to make of this place, but it has been very supportive of me in my time here, and I imagine it will continue to be down the line... I wanted to share some photos of the area I am staying, near Las Vegas as I crash with friends for a few weeks. Maybe I'll get an apartment and settle down here for a couple months. Maybe I won't. The beauty of living nomadically. There's always a greener pasture somewhere... Bonus ram video!! If you say so, Las Vegas.
