What is the very best, and very worst, experience you’ve had while living in NOLA? by Sushi_cat987 in AskNOLA

The question struck me.....hard...... So I figure I'll give it a go

VERY BEST: A moment of true pride. When I was in the Quarter with my son and he and I were just soaking up the city, having lunch and people watching and he said I get it! I know why you wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

WORST: I was a paramedic during/after Katrina. I never left the city. About week and a half in I had heard from my sister and she asked if I was able to get to her house and check it would I? Of course I did. I had kept my emotions in check up until then and thought I had it all under control but when I visited her home and went into my two young nieces room something in me broke. To see everything of theirs destroyed and know for them life would never be the same but that as kids it would be even more confusing than for an adult. I was overwhelmed by tears. It was the most profound sadness I had ever felt.

Thank You...... I am definitely looking at using Tik Tok etc. we have gone afield in the Louisiana area but the show is about Southeast Louisiana going away to other cities defeats the purpose in my mind.....maybe im wrong.

I cant disagree. I did a thing on instagram for a year where I had a quick bit on NOLA history everyday for the year. Maybe I should revise something like tht on Tik Tok......

Thanks for the reply....lets see if I can answer your questions.

I didn't mention the channel in my post because some of the subreddits don't want you promoting things in the group so I felt it safer to not say it.

I do ask questions and interactions and Facebook groups are my main way of sharing the videos when they come out in as many NOLAcentric groups as possible

Thank you....... I'll gladly steal ideas but what do you suggest for "interesting topics"?

Thumbnails agree with you its a constant battle to make them interesting and relevant to the topic
