There is something magical about the swimming pool @ The LVBP!

It's in the center, so it's pretty much the heart of the hostel.  Kinda like a focal point, where people
can sit, chat or listen to some kickin' tunes during the day & party at night. -Justin Lyons, UK

  
  From our heavy hitting: "Naked Scottish Girls in The Pool"
PHOTOstory, 2 a few unforgettable nights with Donnell, Big Chief
& Alex during: "The Splash Wars @ The LVBP!", the swimming
pool has generated more energy & life 2 the hostel that neither
words or a photograph can fully explain.

"The flowers were in full bloom, the
backpackers began spending endless nights,
chillin' by the swimming pool, the mercury
began rising & the wind...  Akin only to a
hairdryer kickin' in." -Emma Andrews, UK

& created the brilliant images featured on this page.  If you look close enough, you might be able
2 hear the laughter in each photograph.  Kieran, Miguel, Erin & Sarah all lived the life &
experience the energy & feelings of something I call: The Hype! -Geo D. Oliver, Alaska
