We were a large family out from Holland in 1954 and after 3 weeks in Bonnegilla found ourselves in Geelong, Victoria at the Commonwealth Hostel on the Belmont Common. There is vey little around about this hostel so I'm natrually interested.

Never knew there was a hostel at Belmont Common- I live in Geelong so I'll ask around. I knew someone who lived in Norlane hostel in the 50's.

I lived at the Norlane hostel in Geelong for nearly three years and I knew the Belmont area, but I don't remember there being a hostel there.
