I fully encourage anyone who is traveling to stay in a Hostel. They're super-cheap and are full of really interesting people. I stayed in the Santa Barbara Tourist Hostel last night. I met two girls from Switzerland who were on a three-week vacation, first to New York then out here. I'm sharing a tiny room just big enough for two bunk-beds (the door couldn't open the full way and there was about a foot of space between them) with a guy from Russia that came in after I fell asleep and two surfer guys from Holland. I didn't get to really talk too much to any of them because I got in so late, but the feel of the place and the people is really, really cool.
After I have breakfast, I'm off to see the Pacific Ocean for the first time ever. Then I bum around down-town or on the beach until Joanna gets in town and in contact. Cool.
