Warm weather

I love the hot tropical weather we get in New Orleans. I couldn't ever live anywhere cold.

Po’boys on every corner

I grew up on these. Can't live without my hometown cuisine.

Second line brass band parades
These are just part of what brings us all together. They are part of the culture down here in New Orleans, and I can’t imagine living without them.
Fabulous clothing stores

So I can maintain my style. We have flavor in New Orleans—gold and silver—and so I could not live without my stores, and my uncle who makes a lot of my clothes.

My mom

She would have to want to move too! I am a mama's girl. I love my mom and would never live apart from her.
