Technomads: Technology Enabled Nomads
Chris Dunphy & Cherie Ve Ard are exploring the confluence of full-time travel, technology, career and community; all while embracing nomadic serendipity.
Current adventure: Full time RVing in the USA in a 1961 Vintage Bus Conversion.
On our way into Carlsbad Caverns, we opted to route through White Sands National Monument in southeast New Mexico, expecting it to be a quick stop. We thought at first.. how interesting can sand dunes be? Afterall, I lived on the coast of Florida for 13 years – I’ve seen my share of sand.
We were both blown away by how awesome it was.
But once you get in the middle of hundreds of acres of white gypsum sand dunes that are towering over you, your car and anything else in site – and realize they’re moving several inches a month. Let’s just say, it comes overwhelming!
Be sure to take your sunglasses when you go! We regret that we didn’t plan to stick around through sunset.

I really wish we had time to stop there. Our trip through New Mexico and the rest of the country is what added urgency to our travel and Nomadic bug.
White Sands looks like a good place to wake up for at least a few days.
I do wish we had more time at White Sands, would have loved to have stayed for at least a sunset. I can definitely see how New Mexico could tempt anyone out on the road more
