This isn't the first time i've composed this first sentance, but if you're reading this...it must be the last.

Writing about cities and countries, moving from one to the other... it's easy. And by that i mean, it's always been hard to convey the feelings and excitement via text, but atleast one can grasp the general sentiment of moving from place to place when i write it. But when you're staying stagnant in one place, specifically the Yellow Hostel it's hard to accurately convey whats been happening. So here you'll have it, in point form and as bland as possible.

Also without fail, is that I have to work the next morning. 2 hours after i've gone to sleep at 5am, I drag myself around in a wheeled office chair while I ask guests to throw their sheets over my head... so i dont have to stand. No complaints though, otherwise i'd stop going.

Lately it's been like that, too many morning's in which i'm absolutely useless and i ask myself "why the shit do you
do this to yourself"? And the answer is (not so suprisingly) simple. Because it's fun - - - And this provides a perfect segway for the next point.

Pubcrawls. They've provided a melting pot for those of us who work here. We meet guests, and we meet other employee's of different hostels and associations. It's perfect, and most importantly, it's free. An open bar for an hour and then three others in which there's a free shot at every entrance. Which has more than once knocked me on my ass. But as i round my 30'th time participating i've got it down to something of an art. Which Chris has taken notice.
