Nicole Sunderland first caught the travel bug over two decades ago when she sold magazines door to door around the country.
In 2004, she found a job ad in a newspaper that read, "Looking for fun in the sun?" with a phone number.
"I was like, 'This is so me, whatever it is,'" Sunderland told Business Insider.
The next day, she called the number, and the day after, she was on a Greyhound bus from Orlando to Islip, New York, with a new job as a traveling sales representative that helped kick-start her travel adventures.
"That was kind of my introduction into both sales and traveling the US and really getting to see how people live and operate all over the country," said Sunderland.
Today, she is a travel blogger with a million Instagram followers who has not only traveled to every US state — some of which she's been to multiple times — but also toured around the world widely.
Although most of her recent work spotlights opulent hotels, cruise stays, and international luxury travel experiences, she periodically revisits her favorite states to explore new spots.
"My goal is to visit at least five places in the US that I have not been to before because I want to continue exploring more of the US," Sunderland told BI.
Here are five states she's been to and would love to explore again soon.

Sometimes the perfect meal while traveling is one that you can put together yourself.
Growing up with my very own digital camera, I fell in love with snapping pictures of everything—there was nothing more exciting than seeing life in pixels (and cell phone cameras had not yet been born). As I got older, though, I became more pretentious with my photography (as, perhaps, we all do)—only seeking out 35 millimeter film cameras (a.k.a. my old beloved, Canon AE-1) for the vintage-feel golden grain shots and thrill of precision. Attention to the detail, light, and depth—all catering to the “perfect shot,” and for sustainable use of semi-expensive film.
If you’ve experienced Utah's best skiing before and are in on the now not-so-secret handshake, you know that some of best skiing in the world is only 45 minutes away from Salt Lake City International Airport. (That means you can take a 7 a.m. flight from New York's JFK, land at 10:30-ish and be on the mountain by 1 p.m.) That and the state’s maxim—The Greatest Snow On Earth—broadcasted on every souvenir item possible isn’t overselling how preposterously light and fluffy the powder is here, or how much of it falls annually (up to 500 inches).
