In This Article:

New Orleans, being the largest state in Louisiana, is filled with bright and lively music and cajun celebration all year long. New Orleans is also known for the distinct voodoo presence throughout the city. Mardi Gras though is one of the biggest drawing points to the city, but after seeing these places, you will see why there is so much more to the city than that.

House Of Blues

The House of Blues has a lot to offer with its live music and southern hospitality inspired menu.

Audubon Aquarium of the Americas

Is it really a vacation if you don't visit either an aquarium or a zoo? This aquarium has so many memories with me from when I was a kid, hopefully, it will create just as many memories for you too.

Bourbon Street

You can't just visit one place on Bourbon Street you really have to see it all! Some of my favorites on Bourbon Street are the House of Voodoo and the World Famous Cats Meow.

Brennan's Restaurant

brennansneworleans.com

Known for it's insta-famous pink exterior wall you will see in person the elegant tones the interior has to offer as well.

Court of Two Sisters

This place is just as insta-famous as Brennans. The outside courtyard has a gorgeous fountain for pictures as well as the indoor terrace.

AHS Coven House

Me being an American Horror Story fan, I obviously had to include this gram worthy house.

Cafe Beignet Royal

Did you really go to New Orleans if you didn't try a beignet?

Marie Laveau's Tomb

atlasobscura.com

The queen of voodoo is buried right there in New Orleans. Legend has it, if you visit the grave and leave a single red rose it will bring you luck and prosperity.

Bloody Mary's Haunted Museum

For all you paranormal fans, this place is definitely for you! They have seances and physic readings available, if you're into that.

St. Louis Cathedral

Probably one of the most visited places in New Orleans, it is in the heart of the French Quarter. Which, just so you know, the French Quarter is the best spot for pictures.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
