Ok, so my little hostel "apartment" consists of a 16'x12' room with a chair (not a compfy one), a desk (dorm style) a queen bed (which is actually quite nice), a small fridge/ freezer, a small pantry, a closet and a VERY small bathroom with a sink, loo and stall shower. It also has a smoke detector, which is very sensative, which is connected to the ENTIRE HOSTEL, which needs to be shut of by the Palmerston North fire department.... who are very keen on offering free cooking lessons to me down at the station if I would like to learn how NOT to burn my toasted bagel. At least when everyone had to leave the comfort of their rooms they got to meet the new tenant (damm Americans!). Ah, another "adventure" packed day in Palmy!
