Solo roadtrip? Where to go?
 
Thinking about skipping town, dont know where to go though. I'd be kicking it solo, so not sure how much fun that would be. Im in houston.

Was thing about..

NOLA (never been)
Austin (meh.)
Shreveport (never been)
Memphis (Im hungry)
Pensacola (only driven through)

Any Ideas? Should I just keep my dumb ass at home because it will be boring wandering around a strange city?

Do it. Solo road trips are tons of fun as long as youre not one of those people who can't approach anything by yourself.

Because you have never been, NOLA. Also, don't waste too much time on bourbon street. Take in some of the other things. If you like jazz, go to where the locals go. I cannot remember the street now. It is near Legions.

Roadtrips are always better when you are not alone, but if you can't get a good friend to go with you then you are better off going alone. Sounds like it will be fun, take pictures :cheers:

I take solo road trips all the time.
I'm taking one next month to Athens GA for a music festival.
planning to visit some forum members along the way :takdir:

I did the same thing last year. 9 days on the road, to TX and back, visiting along the way....

Definitely avoid Austin this weekend, everyone came in to town for Austin City Limits Music Festival.

NOLA is cool. :yesnod:

Solo roadtrips are great. If you have to pee, you can stop and go pee. If you don't have to pee, you don't have to stop to go pee.
