Someone told police the group hiking through Saxony in eastern Germany were “foreigners”.

    You made a claim about hostels requiring passports. I was pointing out that actually hostels don’t require passports. Why would you write something that you know from personal experience is incorrect? It’s very strange.

      @orcrist all due respect you sound a bit paranoid.

      I’m a New Zealander. Every time I have stayed in a Backpacker hostel in Germany or Austria they have asked to see my passport and made a note of its number. Sometimes in the past they “held” my other government-issued identification instead but always sighted the passport.

      If you don’t believe me, that’s fine.

      But I’m not interested in continuing this conversation. I find it deeply strange.

        It sounds like you’re projecting. I hope you feel okay. Anyway, good luck.
