I am sure that there are many Aussie hosts who need to learnt the skill of how to host. The Japanese are such gracious hosts and Japanese students appear to take such pleasure in being hosted that your post is one that needs to be supplied to English colleges throughout the country. I've stumbled your post. I am very surprised that nobody else had already done that. Excellent little post. I look forward to seeing more of you in the fort nightly Carnival of Australia.

I like your topic, though, a bit stiff, but very informative. I stayed with people I've met during travels also, the longest was 4 nights - finding the last night to be a bit uncomfortable than the first 3 nights. Not that they want to kick you out, but, it's also your feeling that you have to consider. Gret post indeed, and I'll take some of your advises. Cheers! ... and happy traveling! 3-Day Stay as a rule of thumb.
