HITF is like a family to me. From the founder, Tom, to the travelers that show up willing to help, every person at the hostel is truly special. In such a short time I have learned and grown so much thanks to my hostel family. If you're looking for a magical, beautiful, enlightening experience, this is the place to be. The connection to nature alone is enough to be life changing. Pair that with the best motley crew of the hostel philosophers and you end up with a truly once in a lifetime experience. This visit was a joy, and I cannot wait to come back as soon as possible!
