This month marks a year now that I've been hosting. I've learned a lot this past year and in large part have enjoyed the experience. A vast majority of our guests have been great. I'm extremely lucky in that I have a wonderfully supportive co-host in my fiance, Corey. Cleaning the apartment between guests is made easier when you can divide and conquer. He almost always gets the bathroom and floors. I almost always get the bedrooms and snacks. We both take care of the kitchen and living spaces. There were times when he cleaned and prepared the whole apartment between guests when I was traveling for work. If a guest has questions or needs something, he's quick to respond when I'm not readily available. We talk about the challenges of the business, bounce ideas off each other. We discuss what has gone right and what hasn't gone so well. I honestly don't know if I could do this without his support. He has been a true partner in this endeavor.
This is the time of year we tend to think about how fortunate we are. I'm fortunate in many ways and truly count my lucky stars that I have such a great partner to share this experience with. I wish for every host to have a great co-host that can support them.
Happy New Year everyone!
