Au revoir Paris & Lyon 🇫🇷
Arrivederci Milan 🇮🇹
I have been extremely fortunate to represent the Louisiana’s River Parishes during the International Sales and Media Mission, New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Jazz Museum Goutte d’Or Jazz fest!
The connections have been made! The River Parishes along with tourism leaders from around the great state of Louisiana, locked arms with tourism leaders from France and Italy.
A great big MERCI BEAUCOUP and GRAZIE! They planned a dizzying array of educational seminars about their local markets, one on one sales meetings, and networking opportunities with international media, tourism industry influencers, tour operators and travel professionals.
Our collective goal: bring more tourists to Louisiana! Those international connections will grow into economic opportunities for our communities.
If you and your business are ready to welcome these international visitors, have unique stories to tell on the international stage, or want to share your creative ideas on how we can welcome the world to our river parishes, please contact us!
