I've been doing exactly that with an app called Fog of World.

5 years of progress so far.

Oh I got it on sale I think. But it's worth it to me tbh, for sentimental value.

Holy shit. Even in my own country I’d be miserable. If I were American I’d probably have punched my ticket after 5 years in one state.

Depends on the state tbh. Texas is like the size of France. There's a lot of places to go even within that state and varied geography and climate.

This app uses it's own tracking. But supposedly there's way to export your Google Location history into a standard format like KML or GPX which Fog of World can import.
