Most bad applications are speed without a body. Spend ten minutes and you will look like a local even if you flew in last night.
Check
- The kind of listing matches the energy you have that day.
- The date is actually free, including travel time.
- The amount is one you will not resent.
- You can reach the pin without heroics.
- Shoes and clothes fit the work.
- Allergies are written down.
- You are applying as the number of people who will arrive.
- Your why is specific to this host.
- You know how you are getting home.
- You will not flake if a friend says no.
Then send
