1. To get permission from the property owner do you just walk up to a house, knock, introduce yourself and ask permission to tent there for the night? (I'm not fluent but my Spanish is sufficient for short conversations like this.)
2. Is it rude to knock on the door of a private home during the siesta hours (2-5PM)?
3. Should I offer any payment? Do the property owners expect it?
4. Is it okay to ask to use their hose or spigot for water or is that too much?
5. Would it be safe to sent up a tent, store your gear inside and leave (to get food in town or to wash up discreetly behind some trees, for example)? Taking your valuables (money, passport, etc.) with you, of course.
