You've shacked up in a backpackers what?
- toomanybeersies 10y agoBackpacker's? backpackers'? Unless you're confused about the term backpackers itself, in which I mean a hostel.
- Trill-I-Am 10y agoI've never seen the plural word backpackers used as a singular synonym for hostel.
- toomanybeersies 10y agoIt appears to be a Australian/New Zealand English term, I guess it's abbreviated from backpackers' hostel. Somewhere along the line the apostrophe was lost, so now it's backpackers.
