[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Totally normal for us. This applies not only to relatives but to friends also. We live near DC, so no surprise a lot of people want to visit it. I have stayed in my friend's friend house in Rome, flat in London and Viena. I will repay the same for any of the visitors. I think the key with this type of visit -- you are not hosting and entertaining them, you just provide them bed and breakfast. I never thought about this and we never discussed it really, but I think this is what every one is expecting. People using your house to save money on hotel and I am glad to help them since I've been doing the same thing a lot. No biggie for me. If you think about this scenario as hosting guest with cooking, cleaning, entertaing, then it become stressful and not enjoyable for anyone, hosts and guests. [/quote] +1 I usually warn people that I'll be working/busy but they are welcome to stay. It usually turns out to be fun. But at this point in my life, I have the space and the energy to deal with a little extra bother from guests from time to time.[/quote]
