Hear about traveling to Lubbock and Amarillo, Texas, as the Amateur Traveler talks to Jill Robbins about her favorite part of the state she calls home. 
Why should you visit Lubbock and Amarillo?
Jill says, "Amarillo and Lubbock are both smaller cities. I don't like the word off the beaten path or hidden gem, but these are just great little slices of Texas and they both really showcase the unique landscape of Texas."
"Lubbock is in the high plains area. Amarillo is in the panhandle. They're both known for different things, but both have some surprises, things you might not expect to see in a small town. They both have a lot of things to do. Amarillo is more focused on outdoor adventure and Americana that is the old Route 66".
"Lubbock is known for music history and particularly being the birthplace of Buddy Holly. So that is what puts that on the map."
