>read all the hostel stories on trv>book a bed in a dorm>there are 3 people in the room>one sleeping other two is preparing for going outside>they quickly leave the room after saying hello to me>go to common area>a few people staring at their phone and two of them playing pool together>sit somewhere with a beer >nothing happens
>>2647195Because most the time that's what hostels are /trv/ exaggerates worse than KarensWhat happened>american says hello and wants to strike up a conversationHow it's described per trv>this loud obnoxious american was screaming so loud asking people questions and creeping everyone out>someone couldn't get comfortable in the cheap bunk near me>they were masterbating or having sex all night!>some guys woke up early to leave and go out around 7-730>before even the sun was rightfully up some blokes managed to be loud and wake everyone up!>I left some socks out and it either got cleaned up on accident or something>My fucking shit was stolen!>some people in the common areas were having beers till late>Dude it was a fucking party I could barely stop myself!>girl and guys talk>dude it was so fucking full of sexpatsPretty much the only hostel stories I find true are>french are always bad>people who think they can cook, really can't and shit up the place 99% of the time>that one russian guy who does nothing but sits in a corner on his PC>isrealis ALWAYS a shitMost people come to hostels because the location is good for the price and their ideal time is spent shit/shower/shaving with a easier to find social aspect. Use hostelworld reviews to determine a place, generally can get verified reviews and tell if it's a party hostel or not pretty quick.
>>2647195>want to book hostel but don't want to sleep with a bunch of randos who will snore>private bed at hostel is 9x the price of a 4 bedroom dormHow and why the fuck?
>>2647195When nobody approached me and I felt like it I usually just asked where people were from or if they had recommendations, and I got some pretty neat conversations and hangouts out of it.If you wanted to socialise you fucked up by not either talking to the phone or pool people.
>>2647195Who knew that the stories told in a site notorious for lying would be fake!?
>>2647209It's because a private room significantly increases your odds of having sex
>>2648517You're not allowed to lie on 4chan, everything posted here is true.
>>2647195how old was everyone?it was always the 18-23 young people who were the most social (and yes, the most inconsiderate as well)I've definitely noticed hostels becoming less social as guests got older. But a pushy young extrovert can overcome reticence in older 25+ travelers; beers get cracked, and stories get told.
>>2647209Private rooms in a hostel will always be more expensive (and less quality) than a hotel room next door because they're for people who used to do dorm rooms, like the social atmosphere of a hostel, but want a place to fuck in if they get lucky or a place to blow up their own shitter.
>>2648610>>2647205>>2647195>go to hostels in India>my gf goes around talking to twats about spirituality and yoga>I try to talk but am short and socially awkward so get ignored by the women and the men openly flirt with my woman>i spend more time texting my friends and browsing chan than I did when I was at home>gf goes out on a night in thailand>guys are getting their dicks out and women r licking eachothers buttholes, my gf flashed her butt>i sit upstairs on my own>gf dumps me a week later to go partying >haven't been traveling sinceFucking hate traveling, but also love it and wish I could do it but I just can't. I hate meeting new people, conversing with hippies and fags alike, feeling uncomfortable and unclean, yet I also hate stagnation, work-routine, living the same place and having no social life.Such is life.
>>2648991>hostel>with gf>indiaif not bait, just fucking why? I'm all for hostels but india of all places hotels are so cheap it's not even worth looking at hostels.
>>2648991Fake story but an important lesson to not take women to a place where you will be physically or socially mogged.
>>2648991Like >>2649001 said. You stayed in a hostel when hotels are 10$? Sucks you were dating someone who confuses spirituality with whoredom (pro-tip, any chick who is into spirituality is loose).
>>2649001he made that shit up retard
>>2649009insecure cuck. your theoretical relationship can't handle other men around you?
