Ian Shank


One of my favorite parts of the article is Ian puts you in the “Famous Party Hostel”. Instead of using the pronoun I, Ian decides to use the pronoun you. This makes it easier for the reader to relate to the experiences Ian has even though they are outrageous, and most people have never experienced anything like this. By ending the article with the truth, he passed in his bunk while reading a book, instead of detailing another wild night out, he makes himself more relate able because I believe most people would do the exact same thing.

There was one confusing part of the reading. Were you backpacking through Budapest or just visiting? You mention the “friendly, backpacker family”, but never mention if you were a backpacker yourself. If you were backpacking, why wasn’t that adventure enough? I’m not judging, just curious.
