My Experiences With New Orleans, LA

If you are connecting with me and us for the first time with FIT Life Creation, I recently traveled to New Orleans for our annual Herbalife Global Nutrition Event: Extravaganza.

Since I went there a day before the event, I thought it would be great to do a one day guide on New Orleans, LA. The last time I visited New Orleans was on my way to Atlanta when I first moved to Atlanta.

It was interesting visiting New Orleans after 9 years as a totally different person. I reflected a lot on how my health, wealth, business have transformed since then. I've had several experiences in New Orleans from Christmas with family to partying with friends in the past. The experience this time was healthy and happy in every way. If you didn't know, I haven't drank alcohol for 5 years now.

This time, I got to experience the French Quarter, Street Art Walk, and Garden District. I stayed at The Quisby and love it. I ate at Tableau and Brennan's for brunch. I flew in in the morning and got to New Orleans about 8am. I headed to The Quisby to change first. For a different and economical experience, I chose to stay at a hostel.

Fun

French Quarter

The first thing I did was head to French Quarter. I recommend you visit the French Quarter during the day. It's fun to get lost walking around. I love the architecture. The streets are so bright and colorful. Even with filming a video, I walked around about an hour - two hours.

On my way to my next spot, I stopped and filmed a video.

I shared insight into my trip and transformation. This wall by the way is right by Jackson Square.

Jackson Square

After you walk around French Quarter, head to Jackson Square. It's in the center of New Orleans

St Louis Cathedral is in the center. I highly recommend you visit and listen to live music (its usually playing).

I walked around the square and visited the church. I recommend taking about 2 hours. The city is so walkable. That's what I did to workout the entire time.

Tableau

Before I left for New Orleans, I Googled places to eat. I found Tableau next to Jackson Square.

I loved having the Crab Rivagote, and Seafood Gumbo. You have to have gumbo in New Orleans. I recommend about an hour and a half.

New Orleans Street Art Walk

I love street art. Anyone else? Culture and colors resonate with me massively. Before I left for New Orleans, I searched via Airbnb for experiences. I found the NOLA Street Art Walk. Right away, the host Carlos was super responsive and friendly. I highly recommend them. I took the tour with Tyler. He is super knowledgeable about New Orleans and the artists. The tour takes about three hours including a stop at a market to grab a bite.

Reasons to Stay in New Orleans, LA Longer than One Day

Depending on what is important to you, you may follow the itinerary or you may decide to stay longer. Here are some reasons why. You may want to make sure you have time for City Park.

With the rest of my time focused on the Herbalife Global Nutrition event, this time I didn't get a chance to. Next time, I definitely will. Some other things to do might be a sports or concert event.
