Mission Statement
"To provide a sharing environment where cultures blend in learning about ourselves and the history of firefighting within the walls of a hostel."
Description
Hostels are based on the concept that building community helps to dispel prejudice and increase appreciation of cultural diversity which in turn leads to world peace through travel. When you stay in a hostel you’re meeting people from other places whether it’s another city or another country. You’re sharing travel tips over breakfast, and discussing world views from various perspectives. Hostelling helps one to be a traveler, not a tourist.
In the words of Andrew Zimmern, "Please be a traveler, not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people, and look beyond what’s right in front of you. Those are the keys to understanding this amazing world we live in."
HI Little Rock Firehouse Hostel & Museum is bringing the world to Little Rock, and we could use your help in spreading the mission of world peace through travel at local events and festivals.
