But common sense will carry you a good distance in the right direction .
Think :
- is this Provider charging sufficient amount for her to be able to maintain an independent apartment on her own .
- does this Provider speak sufficient English to secure her own accommodation (lease / short let) ?
- is this Provider familiar with local culture and familiar with where she is at the moment ?
- is she well fed , clothed , demeanor relaxed and pleasing ?
- are there other ‘Providers’ or ‘friends’ in the apartment ?
- is this location one that is ‘well known’ ?
- does this Provider have a presence on EI , does she respond to PMs ? Have Reviews ?
- (generally) does this Provider work with a ‘come now’ right away MO ?
- what age is the Provider you are considering seeing ?
Can’t think of anything else . I’m sure there’s more , and other posters can add x
Common sense , meticulous research (reviews etc) , caution , sensibility .
Asking here , you are already heading in the right direction xx
Thank you for caring , thank you for asking .
(Hope you’re asking not only for your Own sake , but also for Providers’ safety and well-being x) .
