Love your Louisiana videos Renata, they make me very homesick. Louisiana is like nowhere else. It is truly a foreign country within the U.S.A.
Fully agree! And I'm so happy you like them! Thank you very much!
Just a little update for anyone viewing this video in 2022, the Sausage Link where they stopped for boudin is no longer in operation 😢 they suffered too much damage from Hurricane Laura. BUT LeBleu’s Landing is still open and it’s still phenomenal!
Market Basket in Sulphur is my go to now, but definitely ask another local if you visit, because everybody has their own favorite boudin & sausage place around here 😊 happy travels!
Thank you Jess Cobb for the updated information. Sad that businesses go under.
Wow it’s nice to know people actually go to my hometowns 😃😃😃
Exactly i love in lake Charles too and it's weird to use because they don't eat crawfish or gumbo or how can or brown balls it's weird
ever me live in Montana visit my family in Westlake eat a lot of good foods mostly crawfish lol
Amadia Guidry I also love to see people visiting my hometown! 🤗🤗 Lake Charles is pretty nice, I enjoyed it 😉
Lacey johnson On this trip I tried crawfish and gumbo for the first time! Delicious 😋
Ricky Davis 😋😋😋😋
THanks visiting our city
It was our pleasure.
I live out there my mom works at lauberge
Pyfonix How great! Lauberge seems to be pretty nice as well 👍
Not someone driving where I’ve driven on YT! 😂
Louisiana is a great State, I studied at McNeese but graduated from Grambling, both are great nd people are so respective.
So true! Love Louisiana ❤️, people are the best
the young man that owns TONYS , is a McNesse grad
I enjoy your Videos, well done. I wish a nice week.
That's great! Thank you very much! 😉😊
Man they got alot good food in Louisiana I love it to death and im from Lake Charles,Louisiana 💯💯💯
How is the club and party scene? I'm thinking about going there for Grad school. But I wanna live my life away on the weekend 💀
Wonderful Renata, I loved the city! kiss
Hi Marlon! So glad to read that! Yeah, Lake Charles is a good surprise! Thank you very much! ☺️ ☺️
Sou brasileira também e estou visitando Lake Charles, obrigada pelas dicas!!!
Que legal Rebeca! Espero que vc tenha aproveitado 😘😘😘
My home town! Nice to see people enjoying themselves here😊
Yeah! I had a great time there, really enjoyed! 😍
I grew up there as well on the south side our house was on Overhill Drive.
I grew up there I left home when I was 21.
Where to did you move?
Спасибо. Мне понравилось. Успехов вам. ))
Большое спасибо!
Very interesting video. Thanks, Renata.
My pleasure! Thanks to you! 😉😊
That boils is all in the southeast LOL, but my family is from LA I'm glad you enjoyed yourself
Sharinda Williams Thanks! Yeah, had a great time! 🤗😉❤️
You can buy that in Texas and Chicago too
I visited Louisiana last month and it's unlike any other state. Interesting place. Did you take a plantation tour? Thanks for the video.
Hi Kevin! Fully agree! ❤️ My pleasure! Unfortunately, I didn't have the time for a plantation tour during this trip, plus the weather was not cooperating... But as I live in Texas, Louisiana is so close that I'm planning to return more often! Hopefully!
Yes I live in Texas too so it's never too far. Definitely take a plantation tour and spend a few days in New Orleans. But I'm sure you already have a video on that.
I shot a video in New Orleans too! 😉😊 It should be live in the next few weeks, as soon as I'm done with this series I'm publishing now about Mardi Gras in Lake Charles. Thanks for the tip! Will certainly take a look into that for next time
Hi sweet channel ☺ Keep it up!
Thank you very much! Glad you like it! :)
Very good show
Jgfg Ghggff Yayyyyyy!!!! Thank you so much!!! 🤗😉
Come on down to Chuckie,we aren't perfect but we will try to do you right.
HAHA...would love to return visit
Excellent video!
Nauka Słówek Thank you so much!
I'm from Lake Charles
Seaux??
Being from LC and having the same last name it’s very cool to come across your video!
HAHA, right! You have Spanish or Portuguese background some where?
@@RenataPereiraTV my grandfather is Portuguese. Grew up in Lisbon before coming to the US.
@@ryanpereira9828 How nice!!!! Mine too!!! But he went to Brazil instead 😉😊
@@RenataPereiraTV very cool!! I’ve always wanted to visit Brazil.
Left out so much of my city only showed downtown and the casino parts didnt even show the truly beautiful parts of LC
Nick Lapointe Hi Nick, have you seen all the videos? I have all this about Lake Charles: th-cam.com/play/PLUt18OGs5Ho6QPn6DU9sNFfrJD9e1463V.html
She showed all of the beautiful parts. Not sure what you’re talking about. Do you want her to go down broad street? 😂
take it from someone whos from lake charles. Its depressing here
*I will second that, LoL*
Lol fr 💀
It is
For a Texan the food there is so much better
You ain’t lying!
I’m watching this video trucking through the city. Boday is good. Had some from Louisiana introduce me to it. But all in all looks like a run down place.
Well, the place is a very industrial area. Thank you for watching anyways. Any place you have visited we should cover?
@@RenataPereiraTV imma trucker I don’t think you all will ever catch up to me. But at least your out there exploring.
HAHA, you are right 😂👍
I live here, I didn't even know we had this stuff...
also, boudin from sausage link is SUPER good, also we barely eat crawfish. we eat it maybe like twice a year, mainly on crawfish season, if not, it's SO expensive, but SO good, definitely recommend it. Yes, there's a lot of French words but I don't know anyone that speaks french down here, our second language is Spanish. We have big houses in some places and horrible houses in other places, your on the Southside, where all the goof stuff is, don't go on the Northside, it's very poor, houses are in poor shape, and taco bell never has the slushy machine working ;-;. Yea that's it I guess thats it, really nice people arond here...
How awesome to have someone from Lake Charles watching the video! Thank you so much and thanks for your nice comment! The people were certainly a huge plus, everyone was so friendly! I spent Mardi Gras there and created several other videos. If you feel like watching, they're here: th-cam.com/video/6kdq_S7SzDQ/w-d-xo.html - Would love to hear your feedback ❤️
Lol I love on Northside on Kirkman st.
Our second language is MOST DEFINITELY not Spanish 😂 it is french/Cajun. We eat crawfish year round, crawfish etoufee, crawfish gumbo, we eat boiled crawfish from March to July. Never heard of north side/south side. Great video though, we enjoy these places and enjoy sharing them with others around the world!!!

Lake Charles is a majority-black city. It's a mystery how you van put together a travel vlog about Lake Charles without a single black resident.
You are right. I did not interview many people in my vlogs then. I am adding more people now as we interact more.
How is the weather there?
It's nice and comfortable during fall and spring, very hot during summer and it can get cold during winter. Last year it was especially cold in February when I was there, unlike previous years. If you see the other videos I shot in Lake Charles you'll see that I was even wearing overcoats!
Really hot and humid in summer and lots of mosquitoes and other bugs. Not to bad in fall and winter it can get warm even then. It doesn’t get cold very often.
Small Town right ??
Very
I’d sort of agree with small town but saying it’s a very small town is too far 🤣🤣
It doesn't look like there's jack shit to do there.
🤣🤣😂😭
Could have saved a lot of time by just saying this place is garbage and boring as all hell. The only thing good about southwest Louisiana is the culture and food. Good place to pass thru but literally no reason to stay just keep going after you eat.
This is the worst place to in the United States.
Why do you say that?
I'm from Lake Charles and really enjoyed living there
