Travel Hostel
(Try my other blog site related to travel hostel. Please click here.)
Introduction
Travel Hostel is the main theme of this blog. It is all about the experiences of travelers who prefer to stay in a hostel other than the conventional pricey accommodation. But it is better to define what hosteling means for the sake of those who are new to this experience.
A Hostel also called "Youth Hostel" basically a hotel providing overnight lodging for travelers or hikers. Hostels provide budget oriented (inexpensive supervised lodging specially for youths), sociable accommodation where guests can rent a bed, sometimes a bunk bed, usually in a dormitory and share facilities such as bathroom, lounge and sometimes a kitchen. A hostel can also be defined simply as a temporary refuge for the homeless providing a bed and sometimes food (bed and breakfast). It is used for residential purposes usually on a temporary basis.
Hostels for travelers are sometimes called backpackers' hostels, (often abbreviated to just "backpackers").
I decided to make a blog about Travel Hostel because I myself is a backpacker. It is my passion. Every time I travel specially abroad, I prefer to be with fellow backpackers. But staying in a hostel does not mean you are on a tight budget. Sometimes it is true but often you're backpacking for more reasons than one. It is an opportunity to gain friends..... from all over the world. You learn and experience about other people's culture in your temporary little corner of the world. Most of all, there is no pressure to put up a front -- you can be yourself easily when you're with like-minded individuals. Those learning and experiences led me to put up my own hostel right in the heart of Makati City, Philippines which I named it Our Melting Pot.
Have you ever stayed in a mixed or single-sex room with ten (10) different individuals and nationalities? If not, read all articles here and maybe you would want to try once in your lifetime or never try at all. If yes, this is the right time and the right place to post your experience whether that experience is negative or positive.
Suggestions on where and what to do to enjoy a particular place are also welcome here.
Let this blog be the melting pot for other interested bloggers to post their hostel experience, if any.
What are you waiting for? Let the readers of this blog know what you think about Travel Hostel!

The rooms in a hostel can be mixed or single-sex, although private rooms may also be available. Hostels are generally cheaper for both the operator and the occupants; many hostels employ their long-term residents as desk clerks or housekeeping staff in exchange for free accommodation.
