Next to the White House: the American Louvre and a Homeless Tent City.

Today we go inside a building we've walked past 100 times, but just never gone in. The "Louvre of America" is the Renwick Art Museum, just next to the White House. But then I take you to McPherson Square, scene of one of the largest homeless camps in D.C. right now. A tale of two blocks.

Show not Tell.

PenguinSix is an apolitical guy in a political town who likes to walk a lot. He has hiked over 17,000 miles (27,000kms) in the past six years and is still walking today. He is an American expat who spent the last decade in Hong Kong with his family and is now back in Washington DC, continuing his daily ritual of taking very long hikes around the city catching the sights and sounds of the city while live streaming to share with others. History, culture, life as an expat (with reverse culture shock), and the pitiful Chinese food in Washington DC are regular topics of discussion.
