Nora McGunnigle has lived in New Orleans for the better part of a decade. When she first arrived, she worked in a neighborhood- and community-based nonprofit called Neighborhoods Partnership Network (NPN), where she was exposed to New Orleans history: the good and the bad, overall and neighborhood-specific. She grew to know and understand people throughout the city, beyond her own social circle and Uptown enclave, and her love for New Orleans only grew stronger. As a freelance writer, she started out covering beer culture in New Orleans, and has expanded into the city' s diverse food scene, writing about distilleries, cocktail bars, coffee, kombucha, architecture, and music. She' s written regularly for Louisiana travel magazines (GoNOLA. com, Where Traveler, Country Roads, Louisiana Kitchen & Culture, Louisiana Cookin' ) and for Louisiana residents (Thrillist, Eater, The Gambit, Louisiana Cultural Vistas). You can find her on social media @beerfoodtravels, and read her work on beerfoodtravels. com.
