Blog2024 ≫ Murder hostel checklist

All ready to go on my hostel holiday tomorrow. I should stop calling it a murder hostel probably. I'm working tomorrow and I'm experimenting with staying at a backpackers hostel for a quick return to work the next day. I don't do anything on the weeknights at home anyway except complain about what the others want to watch on TV. So they'll haev a more peaceful without me, and I will have a sleepless night in a room full of strangers.

So based on my travel checklist, here are the things I think I need, for one work overnighter:

I might evolve this for next week.

Latest packing list version will always be here, but I will paste updates over time.

A clear sky and a gentle breeze, 9 - 19℃.

Estimated 1986 cups of coffee from my espresso machine 5 probably comes to £1.00 a cup (including actual coffee ☕️ and servicing 5 but not the 'leccy).

I did finally get down to £1 per cup of coffee then!

  1. For stuffing clothes in and using as an extra pillow. And keeping clothes safe.
  2. Not this time but maybe next time.
  3. Thought about not taking a change of socks. These are Patagonia socks, meant to be worn several days. But nah they were whiffy.
  4. Already in laptop bag for work
