Catching up with Kassi Darakhshan of Hostelling International Austin

Yes, it's that time of the year again in Austin when there is just emphatic excitement emanating with the onset of SXSW, great international bands to check out, movie theaters flowing with subtitled award winning indie films, and of course, the technology forums, and I wonder how many people realize that Austin has a hostel which caters for so many out-of- towners looking for accommodation during this time? Kassi and I did a follow up interview about this when she invited me to attend one of their travel classes giving great tips on the best times of the year to travel, items to make sure you’re throwing in your backpack when you’re hostelling etc. If you’re not familiar with hostelling, take a look at our show http://hiaustin.org
