Task 7. Read the text and summarize its main ideas

What are Youth Hostels?

They are places where young people can stay cheaply and safely. Most countries have their national Youth Hostel Associations. These all use the "umbrella name" Hostelling International (HI).

 

What is their mission?

They want to encourage young people to learn about the countryside, and to appreciate the cultural values of towns and cities in all parts of the world.

In the hostels, there are no distinctions of race, nationality, colour, religion, sex or political opinions. They hope to develop a better understanding of other people as a result of this.

 

How did they begin?

A German schoolteacher, Richard Schirrmann, used to take his students for trips into the country in 1909. They needed to find cheap places to stay... That was the beginning! Now there are more than three million members all over the world.

 

Statistics

Number of hostels: More than 4,000.

Number of countries: More than 60.

 

Who can use them?

Anyone! Provided that you're a member of your national association, or join HI. School groups, individuals, people with kids - anyone who likes nature, and wants to explore different cultures, is welcome. If the hostel is nearly full, young people have priority.

 

What is their big idea?

They believe that staying in a hostel helps young people to develop skills to live in the modern, global world. They learn to live in a community and to share their experiences with other people. They also learn to make decisions, and to learn from their own experiences. They encourage an international awareness of current issues, too.

 

Are there any other important ideas?

The association has an environmental code. It covers:

1. Energy conservation

2. Recycling

3. Pollution

4. Transport

5. Nature

6. Environmental education

7. Consumption

HI encourages people to use bikes, or to share cars where possible. And it supports the United Nations "Decade for a Culture of Peace" through its work.

 

What are the rooms like?

In the past, there were big dormitories. Now there are many hostels with rooms for 1,2 or 4 people. Some have "en-suite" showers.

 

What are the costs?

These vary from country to country, but are always good-value.

 

What do I have to bring?

Bring your own towels. In some places, bring your own sheet or sleeping bag.

 

What facilities will I find?

There is a cafeteria for meals in most hostels. In some of them, there is a kitchen where you can prepare your own food. There is often a T.V. room, a library, and Internet access. There are usually laundry facilities, too.

 

What are the hostels like?

Lots of different kinds. Modern buildings, old houses, castles, small huts, converted banks - there's a huge range. Some of them are in the centre of cities - others are up in the mountains or near the beach. Many of them have wheelchair access, too.

 

Where can I find out more?

Contact your national Youth Hostels Association. Or look at the international website: www.hihostels.com. There's lots of interesting information there.

 

Task 6. Fill in the table comparing advantages and disadvantages of staying in a hostel and in a hotel. Discuss the information with your partner.
