Do you enjoy being the host, or do you prefer being a guest at someone else's place?

B2Social life & going outCompare

A natural way to answer

I enjoy both, but I slightly prefer being a guest because I can relax more. When I host, I like making a fuss of my friends, but I find it hard to switch off and just enjoy the evening myself.

Key phrases to use

  • make a fuss of — to give someone lots of attention and care to make them feel special“She always makes a fuss of her guests.”
  • switch off — to stop thinking about work or worries and fully relax“It takes me a while to switch off after a busy day.”
