Glimpses of Siem Reap: The Gateway to Angkor Wat

admin

The airport

For those of you who travel, most will agree that airports don’t get exclamations or compliments from those who pass through. Well I’m here to tell you that the little two bedroom Siem Reap airport is a real gem. Built in a minimalist style with smooth dark stone and richly colored wood, it truly is a breath of fresh air in airport architecture. If it was a fancy hotel lobby, I would not have batted an eyelash and been wowed. You know you’re in a special place when you arrive somewhere and you get really excited to see the city beyond, just based on the airport. Silly, I know, but in this case, it didn’t let me down.

Airport road and Siem Reap city

Siem Reap is a bustling city with grand hotels of all shapes and sizes, but none higher than four stories so as not to block the Angkor Wat sunset! Pretty. The airport road, which is the main thoroughfare from the airport to and around Siem Reap, apparently has one hotel project after another. Some are quite large resorts with Khmer architecture, while others are something of a hodgepodge of styles and appearance. The road is called best hotel row. Once in the city, there are a large number of hostels, inns, hotels and true resorts to choose from. I stayed at the Hotel De La Paix and I have to say that it was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. See article about Hotel De la Paix at http://www.thinktraveltips.com. Among the hostels that I saw and found them quite nice were Mom’s Guesthouse, Happy Guest house and Villa Siem Reap. There are countless guest houses and hostels in Siem Reap, so take a look at http://www.hostelworld.com for advice. As for hotels, there are a number of really luxurious 4 and 5* resorts to stay in that rival and beat many of its brethren around the world. The aforementioned, Hotel De La Paix (in Siem Reap city), the elegant Huber Amansara hotel (just a few steps from the city center) where Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie stayed just a few days before my arrival in Siem Reap, Le Meridien Angkor (approximately 1 kilometer from the city), Sofitel d’Angkor (1 kilometer from the city) and Le Residence (approximately 1 kilometer from the city). These last two hotels are quite large resort complexes. For a more intimate stay, there is the 4* FCC Angkor hotel, which is located in the residence of the former French ambassador. The hotel restaurant is one of the best and al fresco dining is a must if the weather permits. Then there’s the 75-year-old Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor and one of Asia’s most revered hotels. I remember reading about this hotel when I was younger. It sounded so real with the world’s social elite gathering in their restaurants to eat and drink. When I went for a cocktail I was taken in by the sense of history but I must say I was not overwhelmed by the public areas. The hotel is pretty safe, but something was definitely missing for me. I was talking to a hotel guest and his wife from Hawaii who came to Raffles for their honeymoon. They stayed in a deluxe suite and asked to change rooms twice before settling on a room that wasn’t “tired or looking its full age.”

the wats

Money is pouring into this small part of Cambodia as are tourists, en masse. I have no doubt that ten or twenty years from now no one will be allowed to walk inside the Wats themselves, looking at them from a distance, unless the number of people admitted is severely reduced. Simply put, these staggeringly beautiful creations, some built by man over 1,000 years ago, are crumbling faster than at any other time. Sure, it has to do with global warming and changing weather patterns, but millions of hands touching the walls of these wats, as well as going up, down and around have definitely taken a toll there. I even saw several places where the walls of many of these wats are covered in vandalism, which is very disturbing on many levels.

I cannot adequately describe the feelings I had when I first set foot in the first temple at Angkor Thom. You can see these architectural wonders on TV and in many of the travel magazines, but seeing them in person is overwhelmingly powerful.

After getting a Wat pass, good for 24 hours and up to, in my case, 2 temple complexes (cost was $40 USD), I took a 15-minute tuk tuk ride from my hotel to the first of several Watts. We skipped Angkor Wat because I was told it’s better to visit later when it’s less crowded. When we drive by, there must be thousands of people, no exaggeration, around the huge complex.

We headed to Angkor Thom, which was mesmerizingly beautiful. It looked like a land of the lost set, being that it was built in 1295. The good thing was that there weren’t many tourists clamoring for photos or anything else. I really had a chance to take it all in.

We then drove about 25 minutes to Banteay Srei, which was the oldest Wat we went to, built in the 10th century. It was small compared to the other Wats we saw, but visually impressive. The reds and oranges of the stone shimmered in the sun. It was eerily quiet when we got there and it gave me a chance to sit and look at the carvings which were, of course, done by hand. Going in and out of some of the temple chambers allowed me to see a wonder of the world up close and personal. Once again, I can’t imagine the Cambodian government letting people walk free. Foot traffic is too great. Yeah I know, there was no one there when I got there, but I have a feeling I got lucky.

A word about the bazaars that populate the areas just outside of Wats. You will be surrounded by people trying to sell their products. You can get cheap t-shirts and the like at these places, but for the most part the souvenirs are the same everywhere, so if you’re looking for cheap gifts, these roadside markets are the places to go. art, there are a number of galleries in the “city of bars” of Siem Reap, which I will write about in a moment.

After a late afternoon lunch of veggies and fish for about $3, I got back in my tuk and headed to Angkor Wat, which I was really looking forward to…and it did not disappoint in any way. The amount of people in the temple was bewildering, but Angkor Wat is so majestic that I was not going to get frustrated getting to the shrine itself. God, this place was huge. And so indescribable. Almost cry. It was a strange feeling. I always wanted to travel to Cambodia and to be more exact, Angkor Wat. I read it as a child in my travel anthologies that I used to read and in the Asia travel newsletters that my father subscribed to. I have been approached many times when traveling to Thailand and Vietnam, but there were always extenuating circumstances that prevented me from going. In the 1990s, it was the fighting that was still going on…and only about five or six years ago was it really safe to travel, although tourists have been visiting for many years at that time. As I walk through the first gate, you realize how large the Watt grounds are. Acres and acres of grass and other monuments lead up to the central Wat that is Angkor Wat.

The steps of the Wat are weathered to a beautiful patina. The walls are solid and the carvings are beautiful. In most places you can touch the walls and feel the history… and also the bullet holes that pierced many of the walls during the war. When I reached a very steep staircase that led to the central gallery of the tallest inner tower, I thought of the pyramids at Chitzen Itza, Mexico, where my brother, when he was very young, climbed to the top, but could not climb back up. bottom. We laugh about it all the time, but now, I wasn’t laughing. These were steep and narrow stairs and although I’m not afraid of heights, I don’t like the idea of ​​slipping and falling backwards. Needless to say, I didn’t travel all this way to miss the top of one of the most iconic architectural wonders. I went up and up and did not look up or back. I just focused on the steps. When I did, I felt triumphant and elated. The view was glorious. I wish there weren’t hundreds of other people there with me. But I have to say that everyone was equally amazed and excited to be there. Now going down was another matter. One could have waited in a 35 minute line to get back down using a chain link ladder or just walk down the incredibly steep incline without waiting at all. Of course others in my party just went down the steps like it was a game. Me, I waited and waited and waited… and I couldn’t have been happy. I can’t wait to go back.

A tip or two: bring wet wipes as your hands will be dirty as will your clothes, bring bottled water and very comfortable walking or tennis shoes WITH RUBBER SOLES. You will definitely find yourself slipping if you have anything other than rubber on your feet.

AFTER TOURISM

PUB STREET (SIEM REAP) and PUB STREET ALLEY

Talk about being in a small town in Cambodia and the first thing you hear coming out of a bar is Donna Summer’s McCarthur Park. The world is not that big. The now famous and some would say infamous Pub Street is a few blocks east of the “old market” and is a two block area that is cordoned off for all cars and motorcycles. These are small pedestrian streets and picturesque alleys, packed with restaurants (French, Thai, Cambodian, Indian, Italian, etc.), art galleries and bars of all kinds. From raucous shot bars to quieter and more exclusive jazz and piano bars. I had a great time walking around and taking it all in. Most bars and restaurants don’t start to fill up until, say, 5 or 6, but if you want some atmosphere, go around 9 or later. Some stay open very late. There are always tuk tuks to take you back to where you are staying.

Some fun bars and restaurants:

ivy bar

martini bar

the temple club

angkor what

Linga Bar

The Red Piano Restaurant

Karma Sutra Restaurant

Word of advice: watch out for the Happy Herb Pizza. Is what it seems.

Have fun, travel safe.

The truth about patent trolls

admin

A patent troll is in the field of intellectual property, and more specifically in that of licences. It is the name given to a company or individual whose main economic activity is the litigation of licenses and patents. The name patent troll was used in 1993 to describe companies that file multiple patent infringement litigation cases. The term was popularized by Peter Detkin in 2001 when he was working for Intel.

This type of company is more commonly known as a Non Practicing Entity (NPE) (“society without activity”), since its main characteristic is not to produce any goods or services. This model is similar to blackmail: the company acquires one or more patents in the technical field that it does not operate on its own. Then it seeks to contract operating licenses of its shareholding ownership of companies that produce the goods or services, threatening court summons for infringement of said patents. This action is often based on disputed patents whose legal force is weak. Therefore, a significant portion of litigation involving patent trolls is based on software patents or business method patents. Your targets can be both large companies and small tech companies that can’t raise the funds needed for a trial.

Companies often pay the troll because, at worst, the company is prohibited from using the technology claimed in the patent, and at best, the legal costs are well above what the troll is asking for, even if the case is won. . The activity of the trolls is limited to the acquisition, valuation and sale of patents.

A troll can also be paid to protect a company against another patent troll. If another patent troll sues the company, the Patent Troll protector will counterattack this patent troll with the use of other patents. Patent trolls agree to amicably resolve this type of situation.

Please note that more and more manufacturing companies are using the services of NPE to aggressively develop their patent portfolios while also cross-licensing portfolios held by NPE.

In 2006, RIM, the maker of BlackBerry mobile phones, paid NTP $612.5 million to stop litigation in US courts. Although this practice is still largely concentrated in the US, it is already happening in Europe, as evidenced by the Nokia and HTC dispute against IPCom.

To combat this abuse, a global reflection on the purpose and function of patent law as it is perceived today seems necessary. The activity of patent trolls can restore a balance of power between individual inventors and large groups against those who otherwise have no defense against infringement. The average cost of an infringement lawsuit has reached hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Troll strategies are legal. It is just the right available to any owner seeking to assert an operating monopoly that is conferred by obtaining a patent. The NPE definition could apply to many groups, including IBM. This company sells patent licenses in a technical field that it does not operate on its own.

The current reform of the patent law in the United States raises a debate on the role of these practices. The Obama administration has launched a first series of forceful measures capable of limiting the power of patent trolls. Among the barriers, one in particular should require disclosure to the court of all persons or entities that may have a financial interest in the complaint. For the Obama administration, the measures have very clear objectives to increase the functional costs of patent trolls, since the work prior to the judicial process would be much more important.

Business

Choosing an effective domain name

admin

When you first start your business, one of the initial things you will need to do is choose a domain name for your business/website. In fact, your domain name will be one of the first things someone else sees when looking at your brand. One thing to keep in mind is that you’re going to have to live with that domain name for a long time, so it had better be a good one.

What does it mean to choose a domain name?
As you’re in the process of deciding which domain name to choose, you’ll want to keep a few things in mind before making your final decision. You’ll want to choose a name that is short, unusual, and typifies your particular brand. Well, those are the things you need to keep in mind. What about the things you shouldn’t choose?

In addition to the few basic concepts that have been mentioned, there are some additional details that you will also want to consider. They will also help you choose the best possible domain name for your business.

Your domain name must:

  • Write your brand: The name should have some aspect of your brand. It should also be a name that people will remember and that is unique to you and your business.
  • Be easy to pronounce: Is it easy for you to pronounce your domain name? Is it easy for other people to pronounce it too? If the answer to any of those questions is no, you may want to reconsider the name and come up with something that fits the criteria.
  • Be brief: The last thing you want is for your domain name to be long and cumbersome. You want it to be short, easy to write, easy to pronounce, and easy to share with others.
  • Let a.com, if possible: .com is still the most common suffix for domain names. That suffix works for all kinds of businesses, no matter what you’re selling. Of course, other suffixes will work as well, but they are not preferred.
  • Stay away from other similar domain names: If you have a domain name that sounds similar to another company’s (or individual’s) domain name, you may be in trouble. You certainly don’t want to get involved in any kind of copyright infringement issue. Harness your creativity and create a name that is uniquely yours.
  • Use a strong keyword, if possible: A keyword is very important if it works on your domain name. That will help keep it optimized for search engines. However, it is not always possible to use a keyword. If you don’t have that option, you’ll come up with another creative domain name.
  • Give a clear message about what you are selling: If done correctly, your domain name will instantly let people know about your brand and your offerings. That will go a long way in distinguishing the right target audience from the people who aren’t actually your potential customers.
  • Not necessarily be carved in stone: Of course, you should keep in mind that your domain name will be with you for a long time. However, that doesn’t mean it will necessarily be with you forever. If, after a significant amount of time, you find that your domain name no longer works for you (perhaps you’ve taken your business in a different direction), you can revise the name and make it work for your new address.
  • Stay away from hyphens and numbers: Numbers and hyphens tend to confuse people. That especially applies if you tell the other person your domain name. The number and/or hyphen can be confusing because the other person won’t understand if you are using the number instead of the word and when it comes to hyphens, there are several different types of hyphens that the other person can use instead. In that case, he or she will never get to her website (or, at least, not easily) and the person may end up walking away. Why ask for trouble?

Conclution

As you set up your new business and put all the pieces in place initially, your domain name is one of the first things you need to establish. Domain names are by no means random. A lot of thought goes into choosing a domain name and you should ensure that yours is a clear representation of who you are and what you stand for.

Five Things to Know When Staying at a Texas Winery Bed and Breakfast

admin

Some might argue that having a vivid imagination may be one of the most powerful tools humanity has at its disposal. As such, someone must have let their mind wander to a beautiful location to be able to conceive of such an intriguing idea as a Texas winery that bed-and-breakfast fans could call their “home away from home.”

Wait, what? A winery in Texas that doubles as a bed and breakfast? There is no conceivable way this could be a viable option. stuff, right? Actually, you might be surprised and excited to learn that it is certainly a very popular weekend getaway option for many people. Let the state of Texas get serious about showcasing two major industries in the state (wine production and tourism) at once. Still, if you understand Texas, this makes a lot of sense.

On the surface, Texas has always been a state of contrasts. Although Texas became a US state in 1845, it later seceded from the Confederacy during the Civil War. Before 1845, it was also a separate country for a time after it gained independence from Mexico. Texas is also the birthplace of two US presidents (Lyndon B Johnson and Dwight. D. Eisenhower), but is well known for two other presidents’ connection to the state (George HW Bush and George W. Bush ).

When you look at the wine industry, Texas even finds a way to have contrasts there, too. One might assume that in the heat Texas is famous for, the grape crop would suffer more, but it turns out that cold temperatures and lack of water cause more damage. Wine in Texas is a multi-billion dollar industry and competes with the best known markets in the US and the world. With such financial attraction, wineries realized that if they could combine two industries (wine and hospitality), it could be a great thing for them.

If you decide to visit a Texas winery B&B, here are a few things to know before you head out:

The price varies – Each B&B winery has its own prices, so be sure to check online or call for information before booking.

place of business – While you don’t have to get behind the wheel after drinking, you are also in a place of business with others. Be aware of your behavior.

All in one for tastings, classes and meals – If you and your special someone are fans of wine, booking a B&B winery stay is a great way to learn about all phases of wine production.

experience more – Accommodation on the same grounds, which means you can explore more of what the winery has to offer, which often includes collaborations with local industry. As the slogan says, “Keep it Local”.

book in advance – B&Bs with wineries are growing in popularity (bookings averaging 2-3 months in advance), and with the Texas tourism industry raking in tens of billions of dollars a year, you may want to act fast.

The bed-and-breakfast trend at Texas wineries may be more than just a lightning bolt. This could be the next big thing, and as they say, “Everything is bigger in Texas!”

Exercise to reduce belly fat for women at home: simple tips to lose weight

admin

Females have a variety of body shapes, with genetic differences between each female in height, length, and width. However, belly fat can be controlled for better health and confidence. For example, if you use the right diet and exercises, you will ensure that your waist size is maintained. Exercise to reduce belly fat for a woman is one of the best waist sculpting solutions.

The truth about belly fat

There are many types of weight loss plans for women, but not all are created equal. Therefore, women need to carefully identify truly healthy ways to keep their tummy in shape. First, try to lose a pound or two a week. Second, use a combination of a healthy diet and basic exercise to achieve your weight loss goals. Your weight loss journey is a process, so move gradually, be consistent, and visualize your end goal.

One of the obstacles that prevents weight loss is the lack of understanding of our body. We often look down on that bulge around our waist and are unaware of its basic purpose, troublesome issues, or how to control it. Therefore, many women do not know how to reduce the size of their stomach.

The truth is that abdominal fat not only makes the waist appear larger, but also creates health risks. There are two different classifications of stomach fat: visceral and subcutaneous. Visceral fat can cause harmful conditions like diabetes and heart disease. Subcutaneous fat represents the plump mass that forms at the waist. This type of fat represents less of a health risk than visceral fat, but it is more difficult to remove.

Cardio Exercise Benefits

The exercise to reduce abdominal fat for a woman at home should include more parts of the body in addition to the abs. Instead of crunches or crunches, get more active with full-body cardio. For example, the cardiovascular exercise you choose should be high intensity and raise your pulse. Additionally, you’ll likely burn belly fat more efficiently by performing cardio at alternating intervals of high-intensity and low-intensity activity. For example, swimming, running, jogging, jumping, or bicycling are examples of cardiovascular exercises. Studies show that if you alternate between high bursts of energy in your performance and a moderate, repetitive pace, fat burning is more efficient.

Advantages of strength training

While cardio is an important exercise to burn fat and calories, strength training exercises will help burn fat. Combined cardio and strength workouts provide a great solution for burning belly fat. Your muscles burn calories even when you’re at rest after strength training. As a result, you’ll burn fat more efficiently when doing strength and cardio exercises.

Benefits of abdominal exercise

Although full body workouts are effective, don’t discount abdominal workouts. Simply incorporate abdominal exercises into your cardio and strength training. A good place to start is with the simple exercise known as planks. Surprisingly, this exercise strengthens your core and tones your abs while staying in one position. To perform a plank, get into a pushup position on the floor with your body at a right angle. Get into this position with your arms straight and abs tight, supporting your weight. Hold still in the position for about 1 minute until you feel the tension of the pressure in your core.

Conclution

In conclusion, you should do about 4 hours of cardiovascular exercise a week. Most of this activity can be spent doing it at a moderate pace. Then the remaining time should be spent doing high-paced interval exercises. Perform high-energy reps that last just a few minutes, then rest for the same amount of time. Repeat this process for a fat-burning interval workout that’s sure to trim your waistline.

How to have sex with a woman for 3 hours straight, or as long as you want!

admin

Ejaculating before your girl reaches orgasm during sex will never make her enjoy being with you. In fact, her relationship could easily die just because she isn’t satisfying her the way she should on a sexual level.

However, the biggest problem here usually lies with the guy and not the girl. Guys tend to have trouble controlling their impulses long enough for girls to really feel satisfied. What you need is the ability to control these personal needs of yours, so that your girl ends up feeling sexy and special every time you take her to the bedroom to give her some love.

If a girl says that your rapid ejaculation doesn’t bother her, you should know that she is only saying that to make you feel better. While it’s true that some guys have the power to last up to 15 minutes during a sack session, this is nowhere near getting a girl to orgasm, honestly. Girls need a much longer amount of time to peak and this would translate into more stimulation needed.

Here are 3 things you could do to last a lot longer during every bag session with a girl. Use the techniques mentioned below to stimulate your girl’s senses on a regular basis and give her a sensual moment. If she does, she’ll make him forget about all those fantasies he might have right now about doing it with other guys that could possibly gratify her so much more in bed. And she may even be surprised at how a few minutes can make such a difference in her world.

How to make each bag session last much longer: stop ejaculating so fast!

Technique #1: Be whimsical. If you keep changing sexual positions the moment you feel like you are about to climax, you will improve a lot in bed. Whenever you start to feel the urge to ejaculate, immediately stop moving and try to take control of the situation by changing the sexual positions you are in each time this happens during sex.

If you can flaunt your overall sexual prowess as well as your sensual knowledge, you can impress any girl in bed in no time after giving her the most pleasure. However, it’s extremely important to make sure that position changes happen smoothly and spontaneously, as this will ensure that things remain fun in bed despite the need to control yourself.

Technique #2: Get rid of your fluids. If you think sex is in the cards after going on a date with a girl, head out on the town and pleasure yourself before going out with your date. By doing this, you can ensure that sex is the last thing on your mind throughout the night. As a bonus, you won’t even accidentally spill your load before your girl is close to reaching her own orgasm once you’re in bed with her.

Technique #3: Free yourself from your sensations. If you can, try using condoms that will produce less sensation during sex. It would be easy to find thicker condoms that would be perfect for this. Try them and see the difference today.

For some men, wheezing may be enough, and condoms may not even need to be changed. However, this will not work for all men and it might not work for you. However, if you never see thicker condoms in stores, you can also try using two condoms at once, as doing this can kill any awesomely big sensations that might cause you to ejaculate too soon again.

Natural Pet Therapy: How Feng Shui Therapy Can Heal Your Cat, Dog, Bird, Horse, or Exotic Animal

admin

farts is it so Feng Shui, according to Feng Shui expert Yvonne Phillips, author of Feng Shui ABC.

“Pets emit a strong, positive form of energy in your home because they are constantly on the move. There is no better Feng Shui for your home,” said Yvonne, “than having an animal running around spreading positive chi.”

Pet Feng Shui for the health and energy of pets

Yvonne noted that animals are drawn to the best energy in a room or home. Bring positive energy into your home and improve your pet’s overall health and happiness.

“Your animal will lie down in the area that has the best energy in the house.

“They will always lie on a rug, rather than the hard floor, unless they are a huge animal and have a lot of fur to keep them warm.”

Feng Shui for pets with fresh food, fresh water, and a clean bed

Yvonne emphasized that pets like fresh food and water just like you do! They also like a favorite blanket and a favorite toy, so treat them to what they love.

Stroke Feng Shui by giving your pet a clean bed!

“We have included them in our homes, so we need to make the right decisions about where they sleep or eat in order to live with us successfully. You like a clean home, they like a clean home too.”

feng shui mascot with a clean home

Yvonne brought up another important feng shui topic: cleanliness. Keep pet dishes clean at all times. Be sure not to leave soap residue in your pet’s water dish or bowl. Soap residues can be very harmful to animals. Pets, especially cats, are attracted to well-lit areas (like the windowsill). Make sure those areas are clean and accessible, that you don’t have anything in the way that could tip over.

feng shui mascot with color

Cats can see multiple colors. My cat is partial to red blankets.

Yvonne indicated that her cat is attracted to both red and green.

He suggested that feng shui pet dishes should be pretty and colorful. Yellow bowls and plates can create an especially happy pet feeding area.

Plastic negative! I have thrown away all those tiny plastic bowls that are sold in pet stores.

My cat eats from a colored glass plate and drinks from a glass container. He is much happier, purring throughout the meal.

Yvonne recommends that red can also be used for energizing and feng shui in a pet’s feeding area.

The eating area should also be a sheltered space, a corner out of the way of humans. Cats (more than dogs) like privacy while eating.

Pet Feng Shui with natural salt lamps and natural salt candle holders

It’s hard to tell if wall colors affect cats and dogs, but pets can definitely feel the flow of energy within a room.

I use Natural Salt Therapy for Pet Feng Shui in every room in my house.

Natural salt lamps and natural salt candle holders release an abundance of negative ions, known to enhance your well-being, energize the room, and gently purify the air.

Natural salt lamps and candle holders clean and purify the air in your home of harmful bacteria.

They also combat dangerous electrical “smog” indoors (computers, TVs, etc.), thus further protecting your pet.

And here is another benefit of natural salt. Salt lamps and salt sconces radiate a dazzling soft pink/red glow.

Pets are drawn to natural light and especially the rich warmth of natural salt lamps and salt sconces.

Yvonne recommends natural salt lamps to her clients and uses them in her own home as well.

A Feng Shui basket of salt crystals will also uplift and harmonize the energy in your pet’s room.

How to create an effective roommate profile

admin

Before posting a list of needed roommates on a totally free roommate service, establish your ideal list of things you want and don’t want in a roommate. It’s easy enough to find people nearby with a free people finder, but there’s more to sharing a home than signing free roommate deals and splitting living expenses. To make sure the arrangement is as comfortable as possible for everyone, it’s best to realistically assess your options before you even consider interviewing potential roommates, let alone having someone move in with you.

Make a list

To clarify what qualities you want before posting a list of roommate needs, take the time to write a list. Putting pen to paper forces you to think deeply and determine your priorities.

When putting together the list, consider the following:

Gender: Decide if this is an issue for you or not. Realistically consider whether you are comfortable with a roommate of the opposite sex or prefer to share a room with someone of the same gender. Whatever your feelings on this topic, it really is the most basic quality of a roommate that you need to be clear about before proceeding.

Personal Habits: This may seem like a pretty small matter, but not a few living arrangements have self-destructed over things as mundane as cleaning habits, sleep schedules, or vague housemate rules.

Be honest about your own clothing. Are you a clean freak or is your definition of clean hard to pin down? Are you an early riser or does your day start when the sun goes down? Are you comfortable sharing possessions and food, or are your things yours alone? At this point, think about not only what you want in a roommate, but also what kind of person would be so comfortable with your personal habits that they could agree on a list of housemate rules.

Personality: While a free people finder might contain multiple profiles of people with “a great sense of humor,” there’s more to consider. You don’t have to be best friends with a roommate, but think about the type of temperament you’re most comfortable with.

double check

While it’s important to make a list, go through it one last time before making a list of roommate needs or interviewing potential roommates. You want to make sure your list describes the roommate you want, but isn’t so rigid as to exclude someone who might be a good fit.

You don’t need to include every item in a complete list in your roommate’s required post. Instead, use it as a guide for your ad, and use it again when you’re ready to start interviewing potential roommates.
