Don't Call It A Comeback

So...Hey, Its me, Nessie. I know, I know, its been awhile.

Somewhere along the way, I lost the willpower to keep up with Wanderlustness. Three years ago, fresh off an European semester abroad, Wanderlustness was born as a way to share my travels with the world. A few months later, I graduated from college and decided to forgo the 'real world' my parents told me about to move to New Zealand. Fast forward to today and Wanderlustness has been stripped, gutted and ignored. I could ramble off some semi legit excuses to justify my neglect to my 2 1/2 faithful followers (Sup Jenny.) But lets all save ourselves some time.

The reality of it all was I was afraid that my writings on Wanderlustness were inadequate. Sure, a lot of people told me they enjoyed my ramblings, but when I went back and re read things I'd wrote, I'd cringe inside, throw my laptop out a window and down a vodka soda faster than Charlie Sheen. Then I read the quote below by Ira Glass and realized I had just given up. Well its time I put my big girl pants back on and start writing again of my life of wandering I've created for myself. Good, bad or ugly, I'm back.

6 Ways To Keep Yourself & Belongings Safe In Hostels

Hostels are a great way to meet fellow travelers, save money and have way more fun than at a boring hotel. But hostels sometimes get bad raps for being unsafe for not only you but your stuff. As far as I know, no one has actually been kidnapped at a hostel in Bratislava and sold to be murdered. Unfortunately, people do get their stuff stolen, meet shady characters and the worst of all...get bed bugs! I've stayed in many hostels during my travels and have had only positive experiences (minus two nights in Barcelona, but more on that later). Here are my 6 Ways To Keep Yourself & Belongings Safe In Hostels
