Re: Got my first travling job!!!!
Congrats! Thats exciting! I have lived in Phoenix for 10 yrs and traveled around the state a lot. Tucson is a small town but I'm sure you will find things to do. It's kind of a college town because University of Arizona is there. It is a nice campus to visit. They have a Native American museum.
Nogales is 30 min away on the Mexican border. It is a neat town to visit and get to know the culture more. I love visiting Tucson because they have really good Mexican food so take advantage of that.
Phoenix is 1.5 hrs away. If you would like to go to the beach, Rocky Point(Puerto Penasco) Mexico is only 4 hrs away. It is a really beautiful place but I don't know if it would be safe to go by yourself. I don't know if you'll have a car and be able to visit all those places but maybe you can rent one for a few days?
You seem like you're going to Tucson with a great attitude so I'm sure you will do really well. :-)
You can message me if you need any other insight.
