I think it's time to take the plunge and buy it. Ahhh I’ve been eyeing the silk liner and luxurylite cot ever since I saw it on lifenomadic. I think it’s time to take the plunge and buy it.

It could have to do with getting out of the linens fees, but mostly they have a point. Alot of sleeping bags are quite mangy. Hostels don’t like sleeping bags because they claim they cause bed-bugs.

I don't understand? Is it so you wont skip out on some sort of "sheets fee"? So why do hostels not like sleeping bags? I don’t understand? Is it so you wont skip out on some sort of “sheets fee”?

Because my sleeping bag was so small, they didn't notice it. I felt like a fugitive while staying there though. I am wearing the Vibram slippers right now. I have flat feet and a very sensitive bad knee, so I don't know that I would last more than a few days if I was walking around city streets with them. If I didn't have my injuries, I suppose they could work as "all the time" shoes. They really lack the ruggedness and support I look for in a "full time" shoe.

That means that with the very existence of a sleeping bag in your backpack would make them not sell you a room?? Also how are you finding the vibram slippers? Would you use them to replace your shoe or are they just fancy flip flops for you?? Hostels wont let you in with a sleeping bag.
