Hotels, lodges and dormitories are the old concepts and the
world of backpackers and travelers has moved to a new concept called Hostel.
Where you meet like minded travelers or the people of your tribe.

Pushing the gates I was to step in a new world. With the
first step I was in love with the ambience. I had pre-booked myself. With the
check inn I was excited to see my bed and my partners with whom I was supposed
to share my room. But the timing was
wrong, everyone was out for a trek, city walk or something else.
As the sun was exactly on head, I planned to sleep for a
while and then join for the City Walk which was cancelled later on. The
excitement was high and the sleep away from
my eyes, just lying on the bed and the magic happens. Someone enters the
room and some sound of bags being opened and something being removed. I dare to
rise up and see who it was! A Girl sitting on the floor and eating something.
With our eyes making contact we shared a friendly Hello! and the Country names.

With just the Hi from her my Soul was dancing and Body
calmly lying on the Bed. As time passed I went out for the Ram Jhula, Lakshman
Jhula and the Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat.

Back to Zostel, I entered a room which had a T.V , Guitar,
Chess, Carom Board and etc with Matresses and Bean Bags to lie down and
Socialize. And it happens again the German Girl joins me and finally I moved
ahead of Hi, Hello and we discussed about our travel plans.
The Night was again to a surprise with a Australian Couple
joining me for the Dinner. The Cafeteria lies on the top most floor with
freezing wind passing and the warm Food maintaining the body temperature.
The
Night was supposed to go on and on and on.
