I am left handed too.... But I always held the harp with the high notes to
the right, like on a piano.
I tend to hold the harmonica in my right hand, and hold the mic in my left
hand...
I guess "whatever works for the player"

I think you want the wrist side of the "whaa" hand to oppose the lower
notes. If you make the left hand the whaa hand, then the harmonica gets
flipped to accomplish this. Flipped orientation is a disadvantage when
using tab.
