Using hostels as accommodation while backpacking is one of the best (and cheapest!!) ways to stay on the road and meet so many wonderful fellow travelers. I love hostels and will continue to use them for the unseeable future. Hostels aren’t just a bunch of bunk beds crammed into a room!! They’re full of activities, lounges, bars, cafes, bar crawls, walking tours, and private rooms. Think of them as budget hotels where you actually get to meet people!
Here are the hostels I’ve stayed at during my travels. Click on the link to see what I’ve had to say about them!
