I do tower running. I run up stairs for fun. My most recent race was in Warsaw. A building of 38 floors and we had to run up the 836 stairs.My time was 6 minutes and 21 seconds. I do these races everywhere around Europe.-Nishad, Mumbai,India

To Study
About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
We came here to buy wood, to study it and to understand the primal material that we use for making musical instruments. This wood is really special. See all of this marks? It shows a genetic anomaly that you can find in 1 out of 10 000 trees. We make violins, violas, cellos and other instruments as well.-Urtzzi, Pedro and Pedro, Spain

Mixtape
About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
I remember when I was younger and I was making mix tapes. I was waiting until the song I wanted came at the radio and I had to press record at the right time. Otherwise I`d miss the intro and had to wait for the song again. I ended up listening to radio for a full day like this.-Brett, LA, USA

About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
Don`t you wish you could record all those crazy conversations… lost in the depts of your mind … you here and share while travelling with similar fun souls… so that you could replay them again and again …. on a dull wet tuesday at home later on? It would make a crazy audio book, !”The madness of minds”. …. fun memories lost in time … making room for more and more…-Enda, Galway, Ireland

Get Things Done
The Unexpected
My Mind
About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
In Germany I plan everything to get things done. But here things did not go the same way. I came with a few ideas and no plans so I learnt that a clear goal in mind requires only optimism to be accomplished. One way is not better than the other, is just different, and the unexpected opened up my mind. Cora, Koln, Germany

About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
People say I am a nice person and a good cook. In my life I experienced many bad things, like death and abuse. This made me a strong person, because you need to take the positive from any experience, learn from them and become a wiser person for the future. All I want from my life is to be happy, so I make every effort possible, every minute of every day to be happy and to spread the peace, sunshine and happiness to every person that I meet. -Davis, Sidney, Australia

Train Station
About our guests - Transylvania Hostel
I started busking and traveling with my band in August 2014. I have been to 27 countries so far. The first time I did it by myself was in Amsterdam train station when I got my wallet stolen. Then, I had to play to eat. Now, it is like therapy, sitting in the city and playing my ukulele. It is greatly satisfying to watch the different reactions of people from all around Europe.-Ricardo, Porto, Portugal
