Kacey Musgraves Reveals She’s Spending Most Of Her Time In Mexico After Finding A New Home There
The “Rainbow” singer recently posed for PEOPLE magazine, appearing on the cover of its upcoming November 23rd issue. While discussing her latest album, Middle of Nowhere, and the new chapter she’s entering both personally and professionally, the country star revealed that she’s been spending a significant amount of time in Mexico over the past year and a half.
In fact, the change of scenery has become such an important part of her life that the Texas native now considers Mexico home for much of the year. While living there, she learned more about the influence Mexican culture had on American country music, further inspiring her award-nominated seventh studio album. She explained that whenever she has time away from work, she typically heads south of the border, where she’s found a lifestyle that has completely changed her perspective and inspired her in more ways than one.
“Over a year and a half ago is when I started really spending a lot of time down there…and I’ve learned so much, and it’s just been really beautiful,” she said. “I think things move at a different pace down there. I live a really simple, beautiful life. I’m barefoot most of the time; I spend a lot of time outside. I have all my needs taken care of, I’ll say that.”
