Did your Mother ever teach you how to be a good houseguest? It is not that hard, you just have to remember Babs Rules of 3! 🐟As the old saying goes….houseguests, like fish, begin to smell after 3 days. Of course it depends where and with whom you are staying. But the bottom line is…don’t overstay your welcome. I’m staying with my daughter so I think I’ll stay a little longer:) 🏚Get out of the house a bit. When on vacation, I like to plan no more than 3 activities a day. Don’t jam pack your schedule with 100 things to do everyday. Stick to 3 - so you don’t feel overbooked. And of course, invite your host along. Maybe go to a local market, see a famous site and have a great dinner. 🧳And when you leave, remember to do these three things when you are leaving. #1 Strip your bed #2 Take out your trash #3 Write a (most preferably handwritten) note expressing your gratitude. Leave the note behind so you won’t forget to send it when you get home #vacation #ruleofthree ...
