Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
It’s great to get away from it all, especially when you’re the guest. The duties that go with owning another property belong to the host, leaving you free to soak up the rays and savor the shoreline.
But don’t forget your manners. There may be no lasting responsibilities–save drying the dishes and making your bed–but there are some strings. A weekend in the country rates a great gift; you can’t show up empty-handed.
As for the token of your appreciation, it’s time to forget no-brainer gifts such as wine, flowers or picture frames. Be clever and creative and come up with something that will give your host (and even other guests) as much pleasure as the weekend will give you.
