About the host
Hosted by Debbie Wiggins Robison
Born and raised in Lafayette, LA. Moved away for a few years before coming home in 1998. My husband and I live in my grandmother's house built in the 1800's that we've remodeled 3 times. I've been an insurance broker for the past 35 years. I do love seeing people enjoy my family home while attending all of the festivals & enjoying the food our culture is known for.
