Rules

No shoes and no smoke inside.
Minimize the use of mobile phone during meals and interactions with Mia.
Be proactive in the daily life tasks, propose your help to prepare the meals and to organise and clean the kitchen when the meals are finished. House tasks can be the opportunity to have nice discussions and spend some time together. They also go much faster when they are shared.
Always pay attention to keep the kitchen and bathroom ordered and clean after you’ve used them
When you leave, check that your room is as clean as you found it when you arrived
Always tell us immediately if something goes wrong. Any problem can be easily solved with dialogue.
