What I Can Share With Hosts
I'm a discreet and respectful guest. Always available for a chat, a beer or a stroll, but perfectly capable of do without all of the above. :) I don't ask much because I don't need much. I'm not a freeloader, though. I'll be happy to cook something good, to offer you a drink, or maybe to get you a present that inspires me for no reason in particular.
