What is a childrens home (hostel) and do Eric and Brianna like staying in one?
A hostel is a large home, run by a couple, that houses kids whose parents are off working in another part of the country for a few weeks or months. They usually have space for six guys on one wing and six girls on another wing. The hostel parents may also have their own kids. Living in a hostel at Ukarumpa is more like being part of a big family than living in a dorm at a college. Kids in the same hostel refer to each other as “hostel brothers and sisters.” Eric and Brianna have really enjoyed their time in hostels at Ukarumpa.
