Blogger campaign promoting Germanys Youth HotSpots

For the BUDGET TRAVELLERS GERMAN WANDERLUST project, the German National Tourist Board (GNTB) invited British travel blogger Kash Bhattacharya on a tour of Germanys Youth HotSpots between 19 March and 5 May 2013. Kash travelled with the German national rail company Deutsche Bahn and stayed at hostels run by the German Youth Hostel Association (DJH). His trip took him from Hamburg via Bremen and Düsseldorf to Munich and, from there, to Dresden and Berlin and on to Rügen Island. The BUDGET TRAVELLERS GERMAN WANDERLUST blogger project is part of the ‘Youth HotSpots in Germany – Share the moment campaign', which the GNTB launched at the 2013 ITB in Berlin to publicise its theme for 2013 ‘Germany for young people'.
