Hostel- not the movie

I can’t stop thinking about China!  With the trip super-duper close to being a reality, I’ve been doing research on various hostels in the places we plan on visiting. Now, when I say the word “hostel”, many people conjure up the image of a dingy, dirty dorm room. But there are so many nice hostels out there! With private rooms, and bathrooms! A few friends and family members scoff at this notion. They don’t believe that a hostel could actually be a nice place to stay. They fear we will be kidnapped and tortured, or at the very least infested with lice. Not true, people!

So, here are some pictures of the hostels we plan on staying at. Just to prove to the world that hostel does not equal dirty, smelly, rat hole!

See! Plenty of nice hostels, all for $7-$13 per night. Woohoo!

    wow..when I think of hostels I think of HUGE sleeping porches with bunk beds 3 or 4 high…but maybe that’s because I stayed in 4-H housing much the same for state fair every year as a kid. Well …that or the freak a$$ scary horror movie we all think of. Good thing it’s china and not eastern europe! How exciting!

    Hahahaha. You did 4-H? That’s awesome. We had a HUGE 4-H club in my school on the outskirts of Phoenix, Az… they always dressed funny (western wear)
