Hon hon mon ami, do you like the fromage du penis?

What's wrong with French roommates? I've only met one French person (a Parisian even) at a hostel but she was friendly.

I'm going to japan next week and booked hostels. I have a recent knee injury and figure I'd be safer if I fell in the shower and hit my head or something and someone would be close by.

>>2637574
>don't arrive at the hostel you booked
>because you weren't a cheapass and paid $5 more for a private room

feels good

>>2637646
That is the key, there was only one.
If you have more than one french person, they will immediately form a zygote, forget every other language they speak as they begin to merge DNA and chain smoke for 16 hours without actually going anywhere
I mean, germans and dutch can be boring but to their credit they switch to english if you so much as walk by the building.
Israelis are the worst people on the planet in every conceivable way and if you see a flag of theirs on hostelworld cancel immediately

>>2637733
staying in a cramped windowless bugbox is more miserable than staying in a hostel with comfy living area for a similar price

>>2637574
Both are typically pretty cool. Almost every hostel I've been in is Brits, Aussies and Leafs. Change can be good.

>>2637756
>cramped windowless bugbox
Hmm I could've sworn my studio hotel room was overlooking Bangkok but I guess you're right bro. Don't forget in a few months you'll be working at the grocery store again :)

>>2637733
Private rooms in hostels gives you the best of both worlds. You get the privacy and silence of hotels with the friendly atmosphere of a hostel. You can also bring girls back there that you meet at the hostel.

>>2637822
>You can also bring girls back there
I don't indulge in fornication.

>>2637771
TH is better for having thoughtfully designed hotels with windows in every room. Malaysian cheap rooms are almost always windowless.
lol no, five months in SEA has only depleted $5K-6K of my $15K travel fund, saved from my 2023 paychex. And there's a decent reserve fund as well, $13K or so. AND I have a campervan sitting in my old boss' parking lot. Gonna fly back to USA 4/25, drive around the country, then fly out to wherever if & when I get sick of America.
>>2637822
Private rooms are for couples, but if you're Chad enough to rent the room before snagging the girl, go for it.

>>2637901
I guess I'm a Chad...

>>2637735
lmao anon i'm french, the one time I was in a hostel there was this other french girl that would not stfu and kept talking to me in french, despite me trying to talk to other in english. as soon as she saw me she would dropped the english, ask me a question in french and id reply in english and she still wouldn't switch in front of other. so annoying and dick move

>>2639179
Oui pom eau baguette

Do germans, french etc even enjoy traveling? From my experience they just stay in their hostel literally all day and try to chat each other (and the hostel workers) up

>>2637574
I stayed at a hostel in Japan for two weeks. Randomly some fr*nchies showed up and as I was walking thru the common area, they'd stare at me and punch their fist into their hand. They left the next day. The only other fr*nch interaction I had while living in Japan was some fr*nch guy would go around the foreigner bars like a cockroach at closing and try to take drunk girls home.

>>2637574
this is St Christophers Inn Paris Canal, i know because i pissed the bed in that very same top bunk!

>>2639179
That's why when i know that there are other french i just don't say what i am, as i would not mix with them in France either.
Especially if their name is Kevin, Dylan, Théo, you just know that they are low class and there's nothing good talking to them...

The worst is when you go to Tokyo or whatever and see a pack of 2 or 3 of these low-class scum speaking loudly in french thinking no one understand what they say because "cé l'otre bou du monde".
Also french couples, with the typical mid skinny-fat bitch talking shit in french about everyone around.

>>2639208
French women (like all women) pretend to like travelling, but they just want to take pictures and show it to their friends.
French guys, there's usually a leader of the pack who really decided to travel, and the betas following him who would as well just stay at a cheap resort in France.

>>2637646
My experience is that most French in hostels are loud and completely inconsiderate. The guy in the shared room who turns on the lights in the middle of the night and rummages through his belongings and pulls out his laptop to make a Skype call home? French.

>>2637574
French here. You guys must be the faggots who don't talk to anybody in the hostel, lol. The French actually know what a hostel is, and are generally the life of the party. That's why you all use the French word. Traveling like this has been in our culture for centuries.

Imagine a French person here making a thread speaking trash about fish and chips. This is exactly what you're doing.

>muh girl who speaks about me in French
no she doesn't. apart from warning other girls about you

>muh lights on at midnight
buy eye patches, faggot

>muh guy wanted to fistbump and i stuck my hand out
again, le faggot.

>muh loud
nigga plz, it's a hostel. you're meant to socialise

>muh people speaking their own language
are you fucking traveling or what, faggot?

>muh smoking
sounds like you're too poor to have a healthy spa weekend, so yo treat shared showers as your pamper day

>muh chatting up hostel workers and other tourists
Jealous faggot.

In short, you're all THAT faggot bringing the vibe down. Maybe a sleeper train, caravan, or sleeping bag in a bibliotech is more your cup of tea.

Why is it a rule that every hostel room has to have a snorer, or a cougher, or a smelly fucker stinking the place up?

>>2637597
You should say take something from someone's bag and place it into another :^)

>>2640163

Israelis. Yeah everything bad you heard ahout them is true and much much worse...gonna have a bad time

>>2641532
How do French and Israeli interact with each other tho?

not sure why everyone beefs with israelis so hard. they always have weed no matter where you are. befriend them and theyll usually offer you to smoke with them

>>2641690
>dude weed
>Israelis make the hostel smell like weed.
This makes me like Israelis less.

>>2637646
very loud, refuse to speak english so that others can take part in the conversation, smelly, steal from others
i lived in hostels for over a year and they were always everyone's least favourite nationality

>>2641690

I’m a brown dude, not Indian, but the Indians I met are usually pretty bro tier when it’s just dudes. However when girls get involved they literally stop giving a fuck about western social mores lol.

>>2642985
>Scandi hostel sluts
>complaining about forced multiculturalism.

>>2642985
Usually they're opinions on US domestic policy or Drumpf, though.
Hostel sluts don't even possess the brain capacity to think of foreign policy in any way other than "omg why doesnt everyone just get along!! :'("

>>2642985
>haha stupid america meddling in other countries affairs!!! now pls save us from russia :(

I cannot begin to tell you how much I despise Israeli travellers. So rude. Any space they enter they act like they own and come with a shitty attitude against anyone else. Bring the whole energy down. Their disgusting putrid language at full volume. Their ugly fucking faces stuck in everything. Then the complaining starts. I feel bad for any service staff member on duty. Or any salesman who they rudely insult to save any money.
They are vile

Although tbf between the big noses and disgusting accent I often do mix them up with French who are almost as arrogant

>>2642761
Who in their right mind would bag a smelly, diseased French animal?

>>2643005

Said no one ever, you fucking retard.

Russia is part of Europe and are our brothers, you fucking cancers just funded the war in Ukraine in order to create an artificial conflict within Europe.
((Victoria Nulland)) has been funding armed groups in Ukraine since 2014. That's the ((Brzezinski)) doctrine of destroying any Eurasian power that could emerge.

This is the realest hostel experience. Especially the cigarettes and Israelis being a problem. That being said, I've made really good friends with some Frenchies at hostels over the years.

The French are alright under their veneer of arrogance.

>>2637735
>>Israelis are the worst people on the planet in every conceivable way and if you see a flag of theirs on hostelworld cancel immediately
This made me kek

Used to work at a very large Hostel in northern Australia.

The Fr*nch would always have the worst reputation.
Would be the only nationality group that steals beds (sneaks people in), uses our showers without paying, just being general arrogant grubby cunts.
No problem with the older French though.

Coles supermarket suddenly had manned security about 2016. Why? Because the Fr*nch kept on stealing trolley-loads of goods.

The stereotype is very true.

>>2643170
Yeah, I've never had an issue with french people in hostels. Israelis out of maybe 100 I have been around in hostels only 1 was kind of cool, the rest have been the fucking worst.

Stayed at a couple hostels which had explicitly had signs saying "NO ISRAELIS ALLOWED" in them, which was based. I don't really leave reviews, but those two I left 10/10 immediately before even staying a night.

>lights out at midnight. Lights are on a timer and not controllable from inside of the room. If you come back at like 3AM from getting shitfaced, use your phone torch like a normal fucking human
>no loud noises past midnight. You get two strikes and third you're out. You can come back once or twice and stumble into your bed in a drunken stupor, making more noise than you should. If this is an every day occurrence you're not crashing here for the next month.
>if you steal someone else's food/drink and we catch you, that person is entitled to cane you. One lash for each $1 USD (converted from whatever local currency) the item was worth.
Thoughts? Other ground rules that hostels should adopt?

>all guests MUST shower daily and use deodorant, staff will check

>>2644092

>do not under any circumstances turn off the fan in the shared room. circulating air is necessary to drown our your nasty fart smell and provide white noise so people aren't acutely aware of your annoying tossing and turning all night.

I shower daily and use deodorant, but sometimes i just smell like yogurt.
It is what it bes.

>>2637574
>>2641717
>>2643065
>>2644134
As a french too, i have to challenge the claim about the French being dirty.
Everyone i know and meet (excluding homeless people and gypsies) do shower daily. Not washing yourself daily is not ok in France.
BUT i'm pretty sure most French only shower once in the morning and don't take a second shower in the evening. In the evening they only take a "portuguese shower" (or as you might call it a "french shower), meaning they only wash their face.
They do bathe their kids twice a day tho, but not themselves as adults. Are we the only one do to this? I know even Japs only take their eveing bath but don't shower in the morning.
I do shower twice on trips. At home it depends, and unless you are one of those faggy scandinavians or a woman, you probably do the same.

>>2643381
>The Fr*nch would always have the worst reputation.
>Would be the only nationality group that steals beds
Meaning the only group that would have sex with locals. What are we supposed to do? Stop having sex for the whole week we are here? This is insane.

>>2644237
No, what you described is normal. I don't think showering twice a day (or even more) is common anywhere outside of SEA.

>>2644246
Ok thanks, tho i do suspect some french youth go around hiking or whatever then go to bed without taking a shower.
For these fuckers and on the behalf of France, i want to issue a national apology.

>>2644092
>>2644136

to be fair any English speaking people do this, it's fun, a lot more common at hostels since the younger people who travel for long periods strive for experiences like these and are too poor to hotel hop or just dislike the lack of social opportunity you get at hotels.
Fun all round
