The Hostel and Bad Wheather Days

As good as the wheather was the first days - as fast it changed: Rain and Cold.

Some of the other interns left. So we were hanging around the hostels: drinking, playing games, gut chatting, celebrating a birthday ...

Always involved: Popcorn. I think I ate never before so often popcorn. It's everywhere here.

But basically we were not doing much over the day - just hanging around.

And I got sick. Though not the only sick one. I guess the fast changing wheather was a problem.

So since not that much things happend I tell you a little bit about the hostel!

The Hostel
So the hostel is basically located in the middle of the city - 5 min from the economy faculty, where my project is.

I think it has about place for 20 or so people. My room has six beds ("Stockbetten" = 3). At the beginning all the beds were full. Now with Peter, Linda and me in there. It is still full. But with stuff :-).

The reception is ocupied 24/7. So the night shifts are usually done by students. There is a room with a chillout louge and a small kitchen. Small means that there is a sink, two plates, a fridge and a microwave.
Besides that there is a TV with a DVD and a Playstation. TV in Serbia is totally interesting. They do have a lot of programs which show German, English, Spanish, Croatian ... movies, series etc. just with a subtitle.
When there are big groups the room is just too small. That means that you usually try to stay in the room or get out of the house as fast as possible. Third option stay the whole time at the place you are sitting at otherwise you will loose your place.

The hostel has two bathrooms. The first one is not that good. The shower there looks at the first sight pretty luxurious: there is water coming out from the top, from the sides, ... but then again it is hard to regulate and it also reminds me of a Dixi toilet, which wants to be a shower.
The other bathroom is just normal and better. And there are also the washing machine and the dryer. So if you want to wash cloth: put in your cloth and ask somebody of the staff to turn it on for you.

Yesterday the next big group arrived: people from Spain. We are just waiting for getting for a note, that we have to change hostels. The rumor is that we have to leave the 23rd of march. That would be tomorrow. So we will see.

So today the wheather is better again. So we are planning to go to the zoo and tomorrow we are probably doing a trip to Novi Sad. The second biggest city in Serbia.
