Guest/s Staying With Their Current Sponsor
Thank you so very much to all the hosts who have offered for guests to stay on. If you haven't already done this, we think that the 6-month mark offers the perfect opportunity for a review between sponsor and guest.
If you haven't yet agreed for any clear boundaries in how you will live together, then it is not too late. We have some great resources for both sponsors and guests to help you give some shape to those conversations.
