We stayed our first night in Glen Nevis which is at the base of Ben Nevis (
ben=mountain) the largest mountain in Scotland. It was so beautiful there and so clean. It did get rather cold at night. It is the first time I have ever been in a hostel. It was OK but not at all what I thought it would be like. For those who don't know what a hostel is think... huge house... 100 people... cold showers... many beds... and in my case a room full of coffee drinking, hyper, bouncing off the walls (literally) kids (7-12 years old) in the room next to me that got me pounding on their door at
6:30 AM asking them to stop it! stop it! stop it! [I'm not a morning person.]

This is Patty Waters the director of my program here. She is amazing!
Hostels will offer breakfast and have a room to eat in.
There is places for you to put your food in.
The self-service kitchen. It comes with pots, pans, and dishes. There are stoves and etc. When done you just have to clean up after yourself.
My room. Yes there were 8 of us in there. And no I was not on the top!
