That article on tips to travel cheap was good… but honestly the first comment was even better (and arguably longer!!). I dunno about hostles though. As you are very aware, I’m not good at slumming it when I travel. 🙁 I’m a delicate flower.
You are so good about reading comments! I almost never do on articles… going to read that one now.
