Did you know that the first Jewish settlers arrived in Savannah, Georgia, in 1733? A group of 42 Sephardic Jews, fleeing persecution in Europe, landed just months after the city was founded. They established Congregation Mickve Israel, one of the oldest Jewish congregations in America, and played a key role in the city’s early development. Their resilience and contributions remain a vital part of Savannah’s history!

The #unitedstates really sucks for long term #nomad travel. I have to be back in the US due to work no longer allowing me to #remotework abroad and I'm trying to plan a route. I thought a good idea would be to take the #amtrack up the east coast bit by bit, but no where has hostels or any kind of non-expensive lodging that isn't car centric (#fuckcars) - and I don't have a car.

#Savannah, GA no longer has a hostel
#Charleston, SC has one with a 7 day limit
Next stop, Fayetteville - no hostel
#Raleigh, NC - no hostel

I suppose that I can look more in to #couchsurfing. I downloaded the app for a bit to take a look around, but I lean more to the people and events you get in hostels. Of course, you can make great interactions with people couch surfing as well.

I may also have to only stay for a few days in places until I get to a city large enough to have some kind of shared, less expensive housing. It really is frustrating. I spent a year and a half in #latinamerica and there was no shortage of #hostel dorms and cheap options for room and board. The US? Nah, fork over $150 per night. Breakfast not included. I feel like that could be the catch phrase of the US, or a good blog title 🤔.

Welcome to America! Breakfast not included.
