My girlfriend and I drove to New Orleans from New York City. This was our first time taking a road trip and using air b&b. We made a stop at Nashville before staying at Devon's. Our hosts in Nashville were nowhere near as fun and as hospitable as Devon. As soon as we were greeted, he helped us with the luggage. He showed us around his house and urged us to make ourselves feel at home. He gave us privacy but he wasn't mute or awkward in any way - he actually talked to us and suggested a bunch of places for us to go to. He's so affable and friendly. He makes friends with anybody. He has such a nurturing energy about himself. The house was so beautifully decorated and so clean! Next time we're coming to New Orleans were staying with Devon :) The neighborhood is safe and it's only a 7 minute drive from the French Quarter.
