Well i looked and looked and was not able to find a hostel in St.Johns...I found many B & B's but not a hostel...so I have had to spend more than I wanted too for my first 2 nights in the city. When I make my way inwards, I am going to try and stay with people I meet, but if all else fail, hotels might be my only option...we will have to see how it goes...because this is a winter adventure and its going to be bloody cold, my "rambo" styles will not be so good, no ditches or alley ways for me this time..but i will do as much of this on a budget as possible...
