[bdjakaria76]

So, enough with the gushing traveller talk, and down to the practicalities of the hostel itself. The hostel is made up of lots of different buildings with 180 degree views across the town and valley. The accommodation ranges from large to small dorm rooms, to a variety of private bungalows. We opted for a private bungalow as the price difference between that and a dorm wasn’t much at all (£1!) for the luxury of a private bathroom!

The bed was really, really comfy. James told us whatsapp number list it was a luxury mattress, and after spending the night on a sleeper train a few days before we definitely appreciated this little piece of decadence.

The wonderful thing about Pai Circus School is that you’re pretty close to the jungle. A word of warning for those unexpecting few, our bathroom had gaps in the wall instead of windows which meant we had a few friendly bathroom critters, including some lazy snails and a spider we kept our eye on! I’m not particularly squeamish about insects, although I did get taken by surprise by a couple of beasties until I got used to it, plus there are mosquito nets in the rooms. It was amazing falling asleep listening to the jungle chirrup around you.
