How to be a nice house guest
If you're invited to stay at someone's place
1. Bring something
Wine is easy. Better if you can bring something sentimental.
2. Bring something for the kids
Even used toys, they won't know the difference...
3. Keep your space clean and tidy
Even before you leave. Reduces their stress if they walk by.
4. Be along for the ride
Don't be demanding. See how they live. Try and blend in. As long as it doesn't cause you harm.
5. Go to bed when they do
Or at least be in their room if they go to bed earlier than you do.
6. Get up when they do
If you can. If you can't try and not wake them.
7. Clean up after yourself
Do your dishes. Or put them in the dishwasher. Help out a little, if you can.
8. Make your bed
As best you can. Each day.
9. Park where they tell you to
Don't block them in the driveway, or steal their parking spot
10. Ask if you can change the sheets before you leave
They'll probably tell you they will do it, but it's nice to ask.
