A far away hostel in Ireland
After attending the Hostelworld Conference in Dublin in January, Envoy along with a group of other hostel owners toured around Ireland together.Starting from Dublin, the group consisting of Erdem from Chillout Hostel Istanbul, Brian from Gold Coast Hostel Lagos Portugal the one with the amazing hair!), Csaba from Aboriginal Hostel Hungary, Bojan and Dunja from Hostelche Hostel Belgrade Serbia, Iuliana from Transylvania Hostel Cluj Napoca Romania, Sergey and Lyuba from Soul Kitchen Hostel St Petersburg Russia, Haris from Haris Youth Hostel, Sarajevo Bosnia and Herzegovina, Erik and Gevorg from Envoy Hostel, toured the southern half of Ireland. From Dublin to Kilkenny (where apparently the plot to Kill Kennedy originated � not :)), to Cork and then to Kenmare and the Ring of Kerry all the way to Kilarney,� each beautiful in their own right.
We travelled along some of the most inspiring ocean view drives and admired the natural beauty of Ireland. We were greeted by many hospitable Hostels along the way.
Although the tour around Ireland was indeed amazing, the best part of the trip was sharing our experiences and brainstorming ideas about how to improve our hostels. The networking and the friendships formed were the highlight of the week and we would not exchange it, not even for a four leaf clover nor a pot a gold :).
