13 – 14 October 2010
I stayed with a fellow couch surfer for my first couple of nights in Washington, Jake had a pretty busy schedule between university and protesting (his true passion – being an activist) but we did find time to chat about life, politics and religion and we went out and ate together one evening. With my free time I explored a few museums and art galleries; I highly recommend The Holocaust Museum which I thought provided excellent information in a logical and well presented manner. The Natural History Museum is also worth a visit but the White House is pretty shit.
