I agree with Ray, do what feels comfortable, try just strumming both ways.

As far as the "good hand" on the fingerboard theory, that's not how a lot of guitar teachers look at it. They say the "good hand" is the hand of attack and therefore should play the rhythm.

Do a search on Libba Cotten or Elizabeth Cotten. She was a southpaw who played left handed with the guitar strung for a righty. She wrote the song "Freight Train" and wrote the picking part that Chet Atkins covered.

Some play left on a right guitar, some play left on a left guitar. Some left handers play right handed. No right handers (that I know of) play left handed.

If it feels right it should be left alone.
