Walking and staying in a Mid-City hostel
I’ve never stayed in a youth hostel but I admire their
residents; many are avid walkers. In
Mid-City New Orleans there is the India-House hostel. Their guests walk to the Quarter, to Jazz
Fest, our famous above-ground cemeteries, to the neighborhood restaurants, and
dozens of other interesting areas.
Several arrive in cars, others are international students on limited
budgets. Hostels are defined by their
diversity of nationality, gender and race, but most guests have one thing in
common, they are thin; possibly from all the walking. The India House is a MoneyWalker “hot spot.” For some reason these young travelers
frequently drop money along the curbs and parking lot of the
establishment. I usually route my walk to this interesting building. From their building, this morning’s walk
netted $.52, two quarters and two pennies.
