Louisiana: unique and delicious food, eerie cypress swamps, accents of varying thickness, smokey jazz clubs, and thinly veiled racism all lend to an interesting experience for the extreme budget traveler. People are friendly and rides will almost surely feed you, get you high, or give you some money.

Getting to New Orleans is no problem, but getting out can be tricky. To get to I10, I suggest taking the street car to the "Cemetaries" stop (check out the really cool old tombs, if you're into that kinda thing), walking to the on-ramp labeled "Causeway Blvd", and sticking out the ol' thumb. You'll get a ride across a really long bridge that spans Lake Ponchitrane and at the junction of I10 you have several heavily trafficked truckstop/gas station/McDonalds. Outside of the big cities stand on the interstate and look confused and desperate while still upbeat. I had lots of short and interesting hop rides in LA.

Louisiana is awesome. Fun place. Obviously, New Orleans.

People throw huge wads around here- they make a lot of money but they aren't rich because they blow it all drinking, gambling, anyways, people who picked us up gave us all kinds of money just because we looked kinda hungry.
