Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes
If you get burnt out, take a break -- you'll come back with a fresh perspective. CS is about pure hospitality and it's not always easy. Be thankful and remember to show your hosts appreciation if you can. Be friendly, be honest, have integrity. Most of all have fun and treat others like you'd like to be treated.
