Hello All,
Thank you for your patience as my website was recently updated to reflect my post-graduate life and work. I would like to thank Stephanie Lyles for the lovely banners she designed for both this website and The Old Country Blog. These updates, in addition to beautifying my sites, helped me develop my wordpress and blogger skills.
I hope you enjoy the website and learn a little bit about me and my endeavors as a blogger, explorer and journalist. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to learn more about my work.
Thank you,
Caroline

Hi All,
I just wanted to let you know that my Ninth Ward research is coming to an end. With nearly 50 interviews and a few more on the schedule, I have reached my interview goals. If we have not yet scheduled an interview, I probably will be unable to meet with you. Thank you for your support. I could not have reached this goal, if Ninth Warders had not embraced me and welcomed me into their lives.
Thanks again and please contact me if you have any questions or concerns,
Caroline
I had the wonderful opportunity to write a few blogs for National Geographic Traveler on their Intelligent Travel blog. My first post was published today, titled Five Louisiana Food Quirks. Check it out!

Hello,
I’m making one last call to the public for Ninth Ward interviews as my project nears its October end. If you are interested in sharing your story, I hope I can meet you this Saturday (Aug. 11) at Grace Lutheran Church in Lakeview where I will be conducting interviews on a first-come, first-served basis. The interviews will be about 30 minutes and slots are available from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
I hope to see you there and please contact me at yourstorynola@gmail.com if you have questions or are interested in attending,
Caroline
