Looking for a budget getaway in the Slovakian Tatra Mountains? Like to get off the beaten track? Then the Ginger Monkey hostel in Zdiar, Slovakia, is a great choice.

| Ginger Monkey Hostel, Zdiar, Slovakia |
It's a small hostel, but social. When I was there, it felt like visiting old friends. We all ate dinner together, went out for drinks together, watched a movie together. One of the staff was a real comedian, and had us in fits of laughter several times. I learned Texas Hold 'Em and lost a dollar in a tournament—but wrapped myself in comfy blankets and drank hot chocolate while I watched the finalists duke it out. I found a girl to go hiking with, and two patient guys to act as ski instructors. I didn't want to leave.

ReplyDeleteTraveling together is fun and as a couple with our different travel preferences and goals, we explored more than we might individually. One experience I would share was when we missed one of our tours in Newzealand, my partner gave up and made up his mind to spend the day in the market. I wouldn’t give up and made that day tour happen. I believe as a couple it just helps and gives strength to each other. I couldn’t see him and come back to India with that regret of not having gone to the Milford sound tour. I feel happy to have made that happen for him and so does he. He looks up to me with a smile since I made that happen for him. Would he have done that if we were on a solo trip? Don’t know.visit albania
