HI hostels have teamed up with the world’s most popular social networking site Facebook to offer users a fresh new way to manage their travels.
Friends @ HI hostels is a Facebook application which allows you to share your trips with other users, see where other people are going to and find out who will be staying in the same places at the same time as you.
Once you’ve uploaded your travel plans you can read reviews on worldwide hostels from other travellers, find out the best places to eat, drink and visit on your trip and add your own suggestions and reviews once you return.
Get in touch with travellers from all over the world who could be staying in YHA locations across England and Wales or Hostelling International properties in more than 80 other countries.
