The only thing constant in life is change. Or so they say.
In case you were wondering, I've been a bit preoccupied since my last post. You see, I've started a new chapter. I'm in a place I never wanted to be, living a life I never planned on living. I should preface this by saying that despite being in a place I never wanted to be, living a life I never planned on living, this new chapter has been even more incredible than I could have ever imagined.
New Orleans, Louisiana. A city full of flavor, literally and figuratively. The natives are proud and patriotic. The tourists loud and intoxicated. The Quarter has a stench all its own, but the history is beautifully written on the centuries old brick buildings and intricate wrought iron balconies. They tell me that now that I'm here, I'll never want to leave. Well, I had a hard time believing them at first, but after only three months of courting this city, I'm beginning to fall in love.
New Orleans has a few years on me, but I won't underestimate its ability to woo a Southern belle who longs to be a Yankee (don't tell my daddy I said that). Lord knows I'm always up for an adventure, so I'm beginning this journey with a brave face, loads of curiosity and an arsenal of ambition. Here we go!
For those of us who prefer a picture book, the first few pages of this new chapter in the form of photographs:
