Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Any of us have never heard of the Albanian proverb: “Every guest hates the others, and the host hates them all”. We can all agree that there are all guests who we detest and those we long to host again.

What kind of visitor are you or what kind have you hosted?

The entretainer.
They come with a lots of cheer. They tell endless stories, crack jokes, play with the kids… the house couldn’t be lifelier. Once this visitor leaves, their absence is felt due to merriness their visit brought. You can’t wait to host them again.
- “If it where not for guests all houses would be graves”.- Kahlil Gibrán.

The worrier.
They are constantly worried about their moves: “It’s okay to use the tootpasthe, or should i have bought my own? Am i too loud on phone? It is okay to sleep before they do?”. This guest is walking on eggshells and can’t do a single thing in the house, without over-thinking the consequence of their action.

The over-stayer.
Dude doesn’t know the meaning of “time to go”. They initially came for three-day visit and ended up staying for two months and counting. They are unapologetic about their extensed stay.
-”The first day a guest. The second day a guest. The third day a calamity”. - Indian proverb-.

The lazybones.
However long their stay is, they still behave like a visitor. They wake up late, leave their plate on the table and never offer help, not even a half-hearted attempt to seem useful. You could be drowning with chores, but they’d still go about with their business unbothered. You are alone mate.

The foodie.
They eat anything they come across in the house. You dared leave your pizza in the fridge overnight? It became their midnight snack. You bought biscuits for your children? You set aside some habit for your brother who is working late? Your visitor gobblet your brother’s dinner. The moment you see them, you are tempted to stash away all the food you have.
-”A daily guest is a great thief in the kitchen.” - Dutch proverbs.-

The nosy gossip.
They know wich part of the house needs cleaning. How your child is not doing well at school and when your husband last came home. You won’t even know how much they know until after their departure and your gossip aunt informs you of what they heard. Funny enought, despite all they’ll say about you, this guests has no qualms about coming back to your place again.
-”A guest sees more in an hour than the host in a year.” - Polish proverb.-

The chef par excelence.
They love to cook and are good at it too. They make themselves helpful in the kitchen, and the host can’t wait to savour they sumptuous dishes. You couldn’t be a happier host, that in fact you are tempted to suggest that they move in with you permanently.

Deaf and dumb.
As a host, you could go out of the way to please them and make their stay as comfortable as possible, but your honourable guest leave you guessing all the time because you never know when they like something or not, what they prefer or not. They never give comments, suggestions or criticisms, even when you ask them. It is quite difficult to make them happy, because you don’t really know how to…

The demanding one.
They don’t really care wether their demands are out of your budget, they always make demands from special meals, preferential service and even hoard some of the household items for themselves. They will, without shame, demand for this special tratment and make the host feel guilty for not obliging.
-”The host who seeks special attention, muddies the host’s tea.” - Japanese proverb.-

The messy one.
This one expects you to do all the cleaning, including making their bed, clearing their messy room to washing their dirty laundry that they mixed up with yours. In short, you are literally at their service.

I AM THE CHEF PAR EXCELLENCE, WITOUT ANY DOUBT.

Truly, guests make our home more beautiful, livelier and lovelier. We just have to ensure that they know our boundaries and are more sensitive when staying over.

-”The house that recives no guests, never receives angels.” - Turkish proverb.-
