Jacqui Grant owned the Almost Home Inn in the Main State Ogunquit for the past 10 years. And at the age of 75 she is ready to retire. However, instead of selling her hotel, she is holding an essay contest to confirm that the next owner is appropriate.

In the case of less than 225 words, the ambitious owner must tell the grant why he owns and manages the hotel in the coastal town of Maine.

Grant said: "I am looking for a person to enter it and enjoy, one person, I hope to have a good time." "This was always my goal. During my vacation I feel very good. "

Grant's son wanted to buy her from the truck company in Massachusetts and want to go home. A real house away from home for her guests

Almost Home Inn has received more than 200 five-star reviews from TripAdvisor She said that this is the most amazing and informative part of her career.

"I did not expect to attract so much positive attention," Grant said. "When I read a memo and read [guest], you are busy taking care of everyone, so I have not noticed how good they are."

Grant stated that this is a learning process that understands how to take care of her bed and breakfast guests. In most cases, learn how to make breakfast

"Since I was not a breakfast person, when I went to the first business meeting room, I said, 'I need to help boiled eggs.' "It is a joke," Grant said. "Now, all my energy concentrates on cooking breakfast - it's fun ... I am very lucky."

Grant said she would be there to help the next boss. That's why Grant should not decide who next runs Inn.

"I will not be the final judgment of anyone," Grant said. "There will be 25 papers consisting of three judges to decide."

She said that these judges are not friends and family, but people who are related to the Ogunquit and understand the needs of the town. Grant was also helped by a lawyer who promoted the game by opening an e - mail and writing articles anonymously.

Grant said: "Because I am convinced that someone might be with me, I have to keep some distance from everything."

Grant accepts entries until September 1. Among them are buffers for 5 or 10 days for the paper that was mailed at that time. She is due to announce the next boss on 25th September.

"I miss those people everyday," when she stopped operating Almost Home Inn, Grant said, "The body said I had to late."

McAdders: I recently lived in a bed and breakfast in central Ireland. One of her owner's granddaughter came to me, she gave me a pink paper and said "Do you write down your favorite girl's favorite?" I can not think of any of them! Ten years have passed! So I said, "Well, what is your favorite thing?" So, she really gave me all these lines like "Is the butter a carbohydrate?" . My older brother's best friend is Glencoe. He is a film editor in Los Angeles, and I think it is very painful for him. Someone told me that "You go, Glenn Cocco!" Shirt can be bought at Target. This is unexpected.

Hillis likes to have breakfast in bed. "Of course, the place where women have breakfast in civilization is in bed," she wrote. I learned from Downton Manor that only women currently married at the moment have breakfast in bed. Therefore, Hillis' advice is a little radical. . Others Hillis lists 7 essential bottles needed for entertainment at home. "Sherry, Jin, Scotch, Rye, Vermouth of France and Italy and bitter taste" This is 2017 years. People provide Sherry, so I will adjust this list to suit my taste. As I already have whiskey, 2 red wines and 2 Pimm, I added a gin, I got a tonic blend, a lemonade of the Pimms cup, and a bottle of white wine. Depending on how I socialize, I think it is necessary to add wine, tonics, lemonade every few weeks.
