I work in party hostels around the world. I clean rooms and host pub crawls in exchange for a free room. | Business Insider

, for two months and had an incredible experience. The best parts were the guests and the overall atmosphere. Everyone always came in with fun energy, and since it's a well-known hostel, it was always full. I plan to return this summer for three months.

During a burst of spontaneity, I wrote down a handful of countries on slips of paper and tossed them inI decided that whichever destination I picked would be my next stop. I pulled Guatemala from the hat, so I've been working as an event coordinator at thein El Paredon. The village is so small that it just got its first ATM three months ago.

In just a few hours, people go from complete strangers to best friends. I usually lead two pub crawls a week, and if I'm not on night-reception duty, I join the crawls even when I'm not leading because they're so much fun. and yes, I had to clean it up. It comes with the territory. Cleaning is another job I don't like, though I do it. Stripping beds when you don't know who or what has been in them is not my idea of a good time.

Most times, I take a carry-on suitcase and a backpack with me, though I'm trying to downsize to just carrying a backpack., which saves me time at airports, and a currency converter so I always have access to reliable exchange rates. I've gotten most of my jobs through Worldpackers, but now I'm able to use my network since I know people at hostels all over the world.
