What’s the main purpose of the man’s trip?

M: I have been studying too much for several months and need a change. So I’ve just made plans to go away during January break. I’m planning to visit New Mexico.
W: Really? My sister and I vacationed there last year and we had a great time.
M: Did you get into Albuquerque?
W: Sure. It’s a wonderful place for skiing, so whenever we were skiing, we were sure to go there. Why don’t also go there to give yourself a relaxation?
M: Is it far from the mountains?
W: Not at all. See, even though Albuquerque is on a high flat plateau, there are even higher mountains near it. Just half an hour away from the city there are snow-covered slopes.
M: Well. As the mountains are just thirty minutes away, I guess I should take my ice skate and my ski’s.
W: Definitely.
M: I heard that the weather there is great.
W: It is. No humidity, moderate temperatures, but you do need to be careful about high altitude.
M: What should I do about that?
W: Oh, don’t worry too much about that, just take it easy for a few days. Don’t go hiking up the mountains or exercise too vigorously. Just do everything gradually.
M: I’m sure I will be fine. And I will let you know all about my trip when I come back.
