I'm originally from Spain and have been living in New Orleans for a year. When I arrived in this city, the connection was immediate. I like to get lost in it and get to know its history and gastronomy in depth. When someone visits Nola, I'm happy to show them the best (including curious and hidden places) so that they take a little piece of this wonderful city with them and always want to come back.
