The Great Hostel Give Back

At HI USA, we believe in the power of travel to open minds and the power of community service to open hearts. Above all, we believe that these experiences should be rewarding – not costly. That's why each year in January and February, our Great Hostel Give Back Program offers groups of 6 or more an opportunity to receive one free night's stay (up to five nights) at a select HI USA hostel for each day its members spend volunteering at least two hours in the community surrounding the hostel.

9 Free & Easy Halloween Costumes You Can Make in a Hostel

If you’re traveling through the U.S. on October 31, get ready for pumpkin carving, mountains of candy, and perfectly normal people dressed as zombies. It’s Halloween, and HI USA hostels across the country will be hosting celebrations and leading outings to local festivities. If throwing together a costume sounds intimidating (or expensive), there are plenty of costumes that only require the items in your backpack and props found in any HI USA hostel.

Vote for Zero Waste at HI New York City

The hostel has a recycling program that collects aluminum, glass, plastic, paper, and cardboard; but a huge opportunity exists. Your vote in Hostelling International's Sustainability Fund Competition can help HI NYC acquire a composter that turns organic waste, like food scraps, into compost in 24 hours!

Discover what's possible with Profiles
We'd like to tell you about a new way to use Lonely Planet. It's called Profiles – and this is how it works.

Profiles joins together all parts of Lonely Planet: our website, shop and video hub, plus our Guides app – and introduces some pretty cool (and handy) new features. You can now: 
  • Bookmark your favourite places
  • Create personal, themed lists and itineraries
  • Share these lists with friends and community members
  • Discover and save videos to watch whenever you want

Here's how to get started:
 
 

1. Create your Profile
Nice and easy – just pop in a few details. You can then tell our online community a little about yourself, like your favorite place or what's on your bucket list.
 
2. Get bookmarking
Save videos and bookmark your favourite points of interest from across our website and mobile apps – and they'll get automatically added to your account.
 
3. Create custom lists
Use your bookmarked places to create personal lists for places you love or want to visit, such as the top ten Paris essentials or five thousand years of history in Orkney, Scotland.
And that's it. It's time to sign up, sign in and start planning your next adventure.
