Hey, can somebody let a nice young Libertarian crash on their couch?

Tips for a homeless weekend traveler?

So begins a thread on Reddits Washington D.C. subreddit today.

Im flying in for a conference this weekend, from Friday through Sunday afternoon, read the post from strangelycutlemon. I was given enough money to cover travel expenses but not hotel expenses. Any ideas for a place I could lie down and/or charge my phone for the night? Or if I end up walking around all night, whats a good place to visit? Thanks.

The first response was not exactly what the intrepid traveler was hoping for:

Maybe DCs hypothermia shelters? The predicted lows this weekend are 18F(Friday), 7F and maybe snowing (Saturday), and 10F (Sunday). Walking around is not going to be a smart option.

Another poster, Dcgrump, suggested that the visitor walk around the monuments to kill time or look for a cheap hostel to sleep in. Kzanomics suggested the Hotel Tonight app.

No dice, said the traveler: He had less than $15 to spend on a place to stay. He had tried Airbnb, but the host he met backed out on him.

So who is this guy, and what kind of conference was he going to? It took the Reddit audience exactly one guess to figure out the latter.

Homeless, here for the weekend, that can mean only one thing. . . hello Students for Liberty conference attendee!
