What makes a good host

Ideally, a great parking spot would have shade in the hot weather, some kind of buffer from winter winds, access to an outside water faucet/spigot, and access to an outside electric outlet to power a small box heater or 5,000 BTU window air conditioner when they are necessary. Electricity will also power cooking appliances like a small microwave and toaster oven, water heater, small TV, night lights, a power box that supplies power to a small fridge, and a tiny clothes washer.

While it's not absolutely necessary, a great host might allow me to take a hot shower, do laundry, put up a screen room or tent in a secluded spot to sleep and write, invite me to share conversation over a meal, re-freeze my freezer packs, and invite the neighbors to come meet me. I'll even show them my van.
