8 EXTRA TOUCHES Ask your guests if they have anything specific they want to eat or drink while they stay with you. Have coffee, tea, milk, water available. Stock other staples that you think your guest could need or want & have them easily available either in their room (there are toms of carts and baskets that you can use). Also, to make things easy, have a meal plan before the guests arrive. By planning out the meals you will be cooking before they come it ensures you have all of the food in the house & it will allow more time to spend with the guests. Place your Wi-fi password in a place that can be seen easily—it is after all the 21st century. 9 ADD SOME WHIMSY AND UNEXPECTED FUN Offer a small polaroid camera so that guests can take a memory and place it in a guest book. They will love adding to the book and looking through messages and images from your past guests. Another fun extra touch you could offer are medium sized smooth rocks with a sharpie. Invite guests to write their favorite experience from the trip on the rock and then leave in a pretty bowl. Grab a few postcards at local tourist spots, and keep them in the guest room. Your visitors will be able to send them out soon after arriving and to their recipients before they return from their trip. Don't forget the stamps! It can be a little stressful at times having guests because you want them to have a good time & you worry if they are comfortable enough. If they are guests in your home they are most likely comfortable enough to tell you if they need anything. So don't stress. Have a great time with your house guests & enjoy!
