Some nice people, not nice town

I have lived here for 2 years. The people are friendly for the most part. In every town you will find jerks, no exception here. Cajun people are unlike any other and they seem to live in a world of there own. Culture and food is a big thing here, I don't like the food much and the folk music is horrible. There is not much to do here except eat out at the many restaurants. There is fishing, if you have a boat and can handle the mosquitoes and bugs. Did I mention the bugs, millions of mosquitoes and bugs?? As for the town itself I find it dull and boring, there is ZERO natural beauty, houses workshops, factories and trailer homes can share the same street, there is no order; very messy. The roads are outrageous, best suited to 4x4's, worst I have ever seen. It is VERY HOT and HUMID here, it is horrible. Food is a big thing here because there is nothing else to do especially when you are hiding from the heat. Heat brings bugs and mosquitoes!! I can not wait to get out of here. I have lived all over the world, Louisiana is the worst place I have been to, Lafayette is one of the worst towns in Louisiana. I hate this place! An average toilet bowl is more interesting than this town!
