It’s that time of year again where every man of age and guts go ahead and grows beautiful  face fuzz for the month of November..The moustache is king of November  as Generation Mo takes over. Love it or hate it, it’s here to stay and all for a bit of fun and for a good cause! A great cause in fact. If you don’t know by now, Movember is really a promotional activity for the taboo subject of Men’s health, specifically prostate cancer awareness. All proceeds donated to our MoBro..Namely Me ‘Dermot’ http://mobro.co/dermotmurphy will go towards the Irish Cancer society.

I started the Movember for the first time this time last year, whilst living in the USA Michigan. We called ourselves the Detroit MoNnection, very original name I know. We were a  band of 6 or 7 guys and some of us even turned out looking like Freddie Mercury, yes Markus , you know who you are. We managed to raise over 500 dollars between us , and this year I hope we can do much better!

This Year I have set up the team Jacobs Inn Kettle Bros, coupled with my Mexican hombre…Alejandro Lopes Valdes! He’s sporting a very nice Handle bar right now as am I.Our team space! : http://moteam.co/jacobs-inn-kettle-bros

On the night of Friday  the 29^th of November we are hosting our very own Hostel Movember Mo Party. We will be providing free Moustache Painting for anyone that wants from 630 –  730  along with Moustache shaped cookies and treats with refreshments.

Our partnership with Hostelculture Dublin’s best and biggest pub crawl this night will allow anyone sporting a moustache, real or painted for that night a special Discounted MoBro Pub Crawl. A portion of the proceeds will go towards the Isaacs Movember Donation fund. Come join us and allow yourself to be immersed in the International flavour of one of Dublin’s best hostels! Anyone staying in our sister hostel Jacobs Inn is more than welcome to join along with any MoBro or MoSista’s In town.
