Whether its the sun setting over the Reichstag in Berlin, the clear blue canals of Amsterdam or a night out at Belushis in Brighton, we want to see it.
And we dont just want shots of the St Christophers cities. Were always on the lookout for new sites where we can build hostels in the future. So if you know of a particularly scenic spot, send us a photo and well see what we can do.
Every month were giving away TWO FREE NIGHTS for you and a friend at any of our hostels.

This month we picked Rebecca Steward as our winner of the June Snap 4 Nap Competition. The photo was taken in Interlarken, Switzerland. Rebecca Steward writes - 'I made an unscheduled stop in Switzerland as a friend convinced me to come. I'm so glad I did because Interlarken was amazing - the night life and the adventures. One night I randomly booked to go sky diving after drinking with my friend. Jumping out of a plane over the snow capped mountains beats a hangover any day! But the best part was, since meeting my friend at schoolies 6 years earlier, we said that we'd go sky diving together - and here we were on the other side of the world jumping out of the same plane!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING'.
