its funny, i bartend here in the quarter and my bar gets a lot of foot traffic from people that reside all over the world...
why new orleans?
living here gives one a new disposition on life as it would seem.... we live our lives as we wish...
truly this is the first city i have found where a persons oddities are the norm...
( i should know i walk around with wings attached to my hoody)
tattoos and piercings covering people ranging from their 20's to their 60's even 70's. If you dont fit in somewhere... New orleans is the place to be. I see people that come here for 6 months and are ready to move on ... they have learned to accept themselves and are ready for their next stage in life.
me... im happy here...
yes with post-katrina still handing over our heads all we can do is live as we are...
Most of us are great people with great intentions... ive never felt so loved anywhere else.
But yes like any city we all have our problems... and with the hurricane story still holding us back we have the crime. Crime will occur everywhere. It is unfortinutate that it is human nature.
But as a message to those who are lost...
new orleans is a great place to be found...
