The Hive's Journey

Starting a business sure ain't easy. Well, who said it was? Haha...I thought it would be nice idea to have the creation, the growth and happenings of The Hive archived and shared with everyone. It's like seeing a child grow and have a special affiliation with it. Happy reading and have a wonderful Journey with The Hive : The Backpackers' Hostel.

Extension of SMU

There's a mini SMU going on here. Now with us there are 6 SMU students. Poland, Denmark, Turkey, Finland and Mexico.

Never in my dreams would i have thought that i could be meeting people from all over the world...not until the emergence of The Hive.

So i have been busy with helping them source for a proper accommodation and clearing up the necessary laundry.

As you would have read, the past weeks were really a test of our planning and "fire-fighting" skills. The army has really trained me well. Being a TCO (Training Co-ord Officer) and being the housekeeper are quite the same. Last minute screw ups. Frantic running around solving these screws. Happened in camp. Happened at The Hive.
Although, ya, we get stressed out but we managed well. Lessons learnt from these situations and it all adds up to the experience level.

For one, I realised that Koreans are very very very nice if you are nice to them. You give them 100% and in return you get 300%. Exprienced that first hand. You can take that from me.

Well, anyway, for those who are reading, Cafe @ The Hive has opened. It is not opened to the public as yet but to friends of The Hive so relish the exclusivity when you can. Comparing it to places like Mr Bean, Starbucks and Coffebean, the rates are cheaper. And we have cable TV to top it up.

So i hope to see the cafe doing as well as the hostel. Need ya support people!
