I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 716. Today the Amateur Traveler talks about jazz and

Shakespeare wine and steak football and tanking as we go to the state of Nebraska.

Five hundred thousand Sand Hill cranes can't be wrong. Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. Let's talk

about Nebraska. I'd like to welcome the show Gina Im from Nebraska who has come to talk to us about

her home state. Gina, welcome to the show.

Hi, thank you, Chris.

And Gina, I see you're from Nebraska. You're living in Phoenix now, but you know, does one ever get Nebraska out of their system after they move away?

Truly, once from Nebraska, always from Nebraska and Nebraska is one of only three

states in the 15 years of the show we have not covered so I've been really

wanting to do this show I think for a while. I have actually spent

vacations in Nebraska so why should someone go to Nebraska? Well that is a great

question and a lot of people when they hear I'm from Nebraska

asked me that question as well. So I think that the state tourism board they just

came out with a motto that made me that actually made me laugh the motto is

Nebraska honestly it isn't for everyone and so and then it goes into all these

awesome things that you can do in Nebraska.

But I think that someone who loves a good road trip,

likes to go off the beaten path,

maybe not as mainstream as some other areas.

That is who is going to love to go to Nebraska.
