Cooking is part of travelling imo. Why limit yourself to restaurants and snacks? With a kitchen, you can go to the market and try out a ton of stuff.
unless youre staying there at least a month youre gonna be spending a good 3 hours of your day cooking, not really worth it if you want to see new shit every day
The poorgay fears the personal chef prices
> zoomers unironically think that cooking a meal takes 3 hours
society really did a number on you dumb adhd riddled fricks didn't it?
>3 hours to make a salad, buy bread and wine for a picnic.
lmao
You can cook at home as much as you like. You can even find exotic ingredients at a market or ethnic store. You can only taste food cooked by locals whilst you're on holiday, so you may as well make the most of it.
>You can even find exotic ingredients at a market or ethnic store
Not entirely true, and more important, not the same quality mate.
anything more than making a sandwich for yourself on holiday is fricking peasantry. imagine cooking a a four course meal for yourself on vacation instead of having some QT invite you over and cook for you.
RIP
>Cooking is part of travelling imo
you're just poor or stingy
you shouldn't be travelling to begin with
going out to eat everyday gets old
Not when you are fat like me. I was raised by a single mom and we lived off restaurant leftovers growing up and McDonald's when mom couldn't find a date. She was so busy working to survive that they didn't let her learn how to cook so I eat all my meals out
maybe work on yourself dude.
how? lifting weights is a waste of time.
Do you have anything better to do?
kitchen is the easiest way to collect hostel bawds. incels like you wouldnt understandf
The village bike is not fun to ride, it's broken.
Who always uses the hostel kitchen? Sometimes I do sometimes I don't often it's just because I want to make something local with local ingredients.
Also depends heavily where the hostel is, in Norway mine was a good 30 minute walk to the closest food store so cooking for dinner was ideal.
>Why do they do it?
opportunistic social interaction with the hostel cooz
I have never cooked my own food when travelling. Fricking peasants.
This. Just buy some cheap street food if you want to save money.
That gets old after 3 days.
>I can't create anything appealing at all. Fricking peasants.
Okay moron
Sounds like you just don't know how to travel. Imagine never having a picnic is a nice spot.
>Why do they do it?
Because they're too poor to go to a bar to meet people.
Never done hostels, but I've done student lodging let out in the summer to travelers with a shared kitchen and made my own breakfasts. A bit of cost savings and, as it turned out, a bit of time savings over going out to find a cafe.
Used hostels for years and never once used the kitchens. They're always clean, but I go on holiday to explore and relax.
Why the frick would I cook? If I'm saving cash I'll eat convenience stuff or fast, otherwise I eat at local restaurants.
it's fun
that's it
I don’t stay in hostels but will sometimes cook when in an airbnb or somewhere with a kitchen. Most of the time it’s for convenience. When it’s late at night and you don’t want to have to go out again, having food in the house is always a plus.
I don't even cook at home
>be digital nomad
>often book a hostel for 2ish weeks
>place of work wants me online from 9-5ish for meetings
>this means 7AM->4PM is free, 4PM->12AM "work"
>go exploring from 8AM local time
>Enjoy most the day out and about, eat local food for lunch if needed
>Get back at 330PM
>Bring laptop down to kitchen while cooking
>know how to cook so only cook what I need, keep extra's in fridge
>takes like 45 minutes tops while my laptop is online
>eat and read emails, chill in the kitchen maybe make some small talk
Not hard really, for me in Asia because how times work out a 24/7 kitchen is a blessing/necessity to keep a balanced diet. Not much shit other than kobini meals open around 3AM. Realistically the most I would use a hostel for outside of this would be for simple and quick breakfast while I check to make sure my plans don't need to change for the day.
poor and cheap morons

Don't couch surf on grind bro.
Depends on if you value your butthole.

Airbnb is dead and its overpriced. I laugh at US asks for stays. Europe is bad but US is comical.
