One of the amazing things about visiting Texas is how every single person I've seen has offered me a place to stay. Whether an old friend I hadn't seen in 20 years or someone I barely knew, pretty much everyone offered me a guest room in their house. Such lovely hospitality! I think that offer is much less common in San Francisco; homes are too small to have a guest room and people generally seem too busy to casually offer that kind of sharing. That's too bad.
