A new survey finds:
·60% of people will be staying with family or friends for an extended visit this holiday season.
·21% will be hosting somebody this year, with 63% saying they enjoy hosting their family and friends.
But it seems there are plenty of annoying things guests do when staying at other people’s homes, and there’s a good chance you may be guilty of at least one.
·The poll finds that 49% of people say the top guest no-no is arriving unannounced or without an invitation. Other guest faux pas include:
Snoop around (48%)
Break/damage host's belongings (48%)
Leave a mess when departing (45%)
