Peter my husband worked in a Nuclear Power Plant in New Orleans in 1979 . Louisiana, had plenty of work in the Electrical Industry so we lived there for one year. In our opinion New Orleans has very hospitable and welcoming people, we never felt as outsiders being New Yorkers. We experienced Mardi Gras unfortunately not in New Orleans at that time the police were on strike and only The city of Gretna,La. had the Mardi Gras celebration and I will tell you it gets pretty crazy at least in 1979 did. However,we enjoyed the experience at that time. Bourbon fun street ! As mater of facts I just found out that Elvis filmed a movie on this street. Interesting and creative man the tribe/shop owner, it was a pleasure to listen to. Very sad and big disaster Hurricane Katrina caused,so many lives lost ! what a big Catastrophe! We thank you for the video Peter, also thank Christopher amazing interview. You bought back some memories, as always your videos are so interesting and educational. Arrivederci!

I live in New Orleans and was raised here and it was great to watch but me being here, there is so much more to know and to see, I’m still learning and discovering each day, it is impossible to catch it in one video, it has so much history, and so many famous historical places that isn’t in this video as well. Hospitality and culture, the good and the ugly, and the food, if you come to the city you will want a budget for food, and don’t sleep on the hot plates look em up, that’s most soul cooking of Louisiana gems you can get at a time saver or corner store for 8-10.99. Most places you don’t even have to hit the restaurants because the corner store is cheaper and has family hospitality, and pass down recipes. Look for the hole in the walls always But if you want a po boy aka “poor” boy gotta go to parkway avenue for a good first timer, it’s a experience, Obama and bush showed a visit, probably some of the best po boys in the city yaheard me ⚜️ go all the way and get em dressed all love always ⚜️

I also have a 6 year old son. And the schools seem horrible. We don’t have the money for private school either. I was looking at Covington and Mandeville because of better schools.

Christopher is a fantastic ambassador for New Orleans-- what a gentleman! Christopher's love for the city and its people really shines through, and its a shame that the city's persistent problems pushed him to leave. His live-and-let-live honesty about all things great and in need of growth in the city has further convinced me of New Orleans' charm and how much I can learn from it. This city is a national treasure and its people are gems, and they deserve so much more than they've been served.

New Orleans native, now live north of Lake Pontchartrain for the past 35 yrs... A note about the 9th ward. Many houses were owned and past down through families. After owners died , no succession was done, ownership was not officially transferred. Those families who lived there had no proof of ownership of the property. Therefore they received no help from fema. They never had insurance. They lost everything. Katrina affected us all in ways that are never forgotten. I love my city but it's nothing like it used to be. I carry our culture of New Orleans forever in my heart, we are so much more than Mardi Gras and jazz fest. Great job Peter. ❤❤

There is good and bad down here in the south but the “southern hospitality” saying or “the Deep South hospitality” stands for most that come from hard times but found the love and joy in it and wanted to spread it through others or strong family cultures, religious beliefs and up bringings because they didn’t have a lot and sharing was something they did that helped them stay together as a community or a family unit to make it. It’s all love down here.

Swede here. New Orleans remains my absolute favorite city after visiting it in the mid 90's during a backpacking Amtrak "loop-de-loop" US. I would love to come back and have such a splendid guide like Christopher. I just love it. The then mixed with the now, the when and the how. The scent, the sounds. Everything, even almost dying from food poisoning. It was a splendid few days. Thanks for letting me revisit from home. The US south is magnificent and the people are just great. So many good episodes, and new dreams of travelling to see it start sprouting.

I had the incredible honour of getting to be an intern for the State of Louisiana in 2019 for like 5 months (I'm from Canada) - and it was some of the best times in my life. I lived in Lafayette, but I spent as much time as I could in New Orleans, including that last pre-pandemic Mardi Gras. That city is such a gem, with such a wide array of communities - and as a Canadian, the welcome I got from every single one of them - it gave me an ability to flow through that city in a way I don't think many get to - but that you give us a taste for here in this video!

Music and creativity are alive in New Orleans like nowhere else! Back in the 80s I was a tourist there, and had the pleasure (honestly, it was a Spiritual experience) of spending an evening at Preservation Hall; listening to world class musicians. The people in that town seem to be alchemists that can transform the energy of corruption into fuel for triumphal, joyous expression. Thanks Peter, for letting us spend time with you and the amazing people you find.

Interesting, as always, Peter! Having lived and worked in New Orleans for a bit, my tour might be completely different! The food scene in New Orleans is legendary and your host barely touched on it! It’s literally one of the top culinary cities in the world! Galatoire’s, Commander’s Palace, Tujague’s, Antoine’s, all of the Brennan restaurants, Pascal’s Manale, Acme Oyster, and hundreds more! The music scene is equally legendary and not really mentioned here either. You can literally hear anything from Voodoo Swamp to High Opera within a few blocks of each other, but the funk is what New Orleans does best!
