Course Expectations

I am looking forward to immersing myself in the culture of New Orleans, I grew up an hour from New Orleans in Biloxi Mississippi. Going to New Orleans is like going to a cousins house, its almost like home. I feel that this trip will be a true insight into the culture of the cajun people, we will get to immerse ourselves in a culture that will be like looking into a new world. I want to learn about what it takes to feel at home in the city that was born from so many different cultures. I want to learn how southern, French, and Spanish come together to form one of the most intricate and excepting cultures in the world. Stepping into New Orleans is like stepping into a new world full of music, food, and people that live in a world all their own. I am greatly looking forward to stepping into that world.
