Hey, y’all!

Welcome to Geaux Places: A Travel Blog. Here, you’ll find tips, reviews and itineraries based on my travels across the U.S. and the world.

About me? By day, I’m an overextended political operative based in Washington, D.C. By night, I’m a twentysomething who’s making her weekend plans or charting the course for her next big trip.

This is my first attempt at blogging for reasons unrelated to my day job, so I hope you’ll bear with me as I learn how this crazy thing works (and by thing, I mean “the Internet”). I look forward to sharing my experiences with you, as well as learning from other travel bloggers about how it’s done (and getting trip ideas of my own!). Please do drop a line!

So, as we say in my home state of Louisiana…

Laissez les bons temps rouler,

Ellen

P.S. If you’re wondering about the blog title, “geaux” is a funny way to write the word “go” if you’re from Louisiana. Here’s some history on that.
