About HI

We love travelling.
To us, travel isn't just about going places, it's also about meeting people,
discovering cultures, eating new food and most of all, learning how people do
things differently than we do back home. 

We believe that
through hostelling, we become more conscious about the world around us; and we
can even make the world a better place. Our mission is to build a community of
conscious travellers who share a greater understanding of people, places and
cultures through our network of hostels and people.
