8 Easy Ways to Be the Best Houseguest Ever

If you're a guest with a special diet, plan ahead by bringing snacks you can eat. Don't expect a host to provide three square meals a day, all to your liking. If you finish something, offer to replace it (kind hosts will say "No!" but appreciate the offer).

Good hosts will bend over backward to make sure their guests have everything they need to eat or drink. But in the unlikely situation in which a host hasn't provided essentials like coffee or bread, then guests should feel comfortable heading out into the city or town to fend for themselves. We're all adults, after all.
