Hello out there and welcome to the Travel Makes Me Happy blog! My name is Kerri (KJ) and I’ve discovered many things throughout my lifetime. I am from one of the (in my opinion) best cities in the world, New Orleans, Louisiana. I have always been surrounded with great food, great music, and fun growing up and living here. Hopefully, by sharing my experiences, planning tips, travel reviews, and destination information that I’ve gathered along my journey it will help others in their own travel discoveries.
