What You Need to Know to Stay Healthy and Happy in a Hostel

Being a student and living in a new city is always challenging because there are so many things that need to be taken care of. There is always some work pending or errands to run. However, in the hustle and bustle of student life, we tend to forget to take care of OURSELVES. We often overlook ourselves in this fast-paced cycle of college life and keeping up with academics, but we want you to know that nothing is more important than you. If you are someone who’s looking for that balance or betterment, keep reading, for these pointers are sure to make it easier and very much doable for you to achieve the same.


  • Make your room a cosy and comfortable space


One of the most important things is to remember to keep the things and people that are closest to you. This will enable you to always stay indirectly connected and sometimes even encourage you to finish that assignment or do your laundry. Sometimes it gets difficult to do everything without the help of our family. Keeping your near and dear ones around virtually might go a long way in making you feel comfortable.


  • Spend some time getting acquainted


If you were to spend a layover of say 6 hours at an airport, you wouldn’t spend them all sitting in one place, right? The same goes for any new place — you gotta explore and get to know what’s around you. Maybe take a walk, go to the nearby coffee shop with a friend or just explore the surroundings of your campus. The more you expose yourself to newer things, the more you become more comfortable around them. Acquaint and adapt, explore and uncover!


  • If you need help, ask. Look for support


Do you remember what Professor Dumbledore once said in Harry Potter? “Help shall always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it” This sentence is not only true in life but does help too.. It’s okay to ask for help. After all, you are stepping into a different world at a crucial point in your life, but also remember, so is everybody too.


  • Self-care is vital


The importance of self-care cannot be overstated. To give each day your best shot, you need to ensure that you are taking care of yourself, especially when your family isn’t around. Ask your friends to do the same. Each individual is sorted if they have just one other person caring for them. It’s a very well-known but easily ignored point to eat and sleep well. Make sure to invest a little bit of your time in pursuing your hobby or anything that brings you happiness. Not only will this refresh you but also give you that buffer in between tasks or studies to perform even better.


There it is! These are just some of the things that might help you with staying healthy and happy when living in a hostel in Pune. When you’re confused, remember, you can’t go wrong with homemade food. Also, sharing is caring. Try to be more inclusive to cultivate an atmosphere of camaraderie. Try and schedule weekly get-togethers with your friends and while you discuss everything, we’re sure you’d stay updated on the entertainment count. Lighthearted conversations with like-minded peers go very well together. We encourage you to engage, discuss and expand your horizons even more.


At Ivy League House, one of the best luxury hostels in Punewe sincerely understand your perspectives and struggles. That is exactly why we want you to be and give your best, always
