9th July - Montpellier

The next day we were told we were to move from room 9 to room 13. The whole move seemed very pointless as we were going from a 3 bed to a 4 bed and no one shared the room with us. We asked at reception if we could move out massive rucksacks to the new room but were told this wouldn’t be possible as the cleaners needed to clean and we couldn’t leave it in our current room either. They told us to put our bags in the lockers which were €1 each. I kicked up a fuss – why should we pay €3 for the lockers when we didn’t even want to move rooms. After a while of me being very angry, they relented and let us put our bags in a room for free.

After that we caught a tram, then a bus to the beach. We swam and sunbathed. We took things to make sandwiches but everything went disgusting in the sun. Me and Lu ended up burning the back of our legs, but it was nice to relax and swim in the dea (even if we were approached by ‘roided up French men who splashed us!)
We went back to the hostel, showered and put our dresses on. We all fancied pizza, so after finishing the wine from the homeless night, we went to a pizzeria not far away. We shared a large ham pizza and a “bolognaise” pizza which was just beef. We each saved a piece for later (because we’re on a low budget) and planned to visit the hostel bar, but it was closed, so instead we put on loads of eyeliner and took the piss out of some droopy eyes French girls before going to bed.
