- Discuss keys, arrival times, food storage and the spaces each person needs to use.
- Keep personal belongings and private writing under individual control. Mark unresolved arrangements as temporary rather than assuming silence means agreement.
A worked example

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.
