Maytha is one of the most inspiring and enriching human beings I've ever met. She welcomed me into her home with open arms.Through her lifestyle, her way of thinking, her strength, her creativity, her kindness, and generosity, she changed the way I see life, and myself. She opened my eyes to how precious the Earth is, to its wonders, and to the deep gratitude she feels for nature.Working in her orchard was a blessing, because of its beauty, but also because I discovered how much I enjoyed the work.I am beyond grateful to know her and to have had the privilege of living with her. ❤️

2-week stay, I chose to leave on my own initiative Organization: I felt disrespected by 5 days of housekeeping (contrary to listing) and schedule changes: she granted then tried to cancel an earned day off in wk 1 (I had to insist), it was for a big favor and shift of rest days, then wk 2 she assumed that rest days was shifted. Communication: I felt uncomfortable with vague tasks, zero explication, criticism of task completion (the favor one) disrespect about nationalities, and zero empathy during a family loss. Conclusion: I suggest honoring agreements and dialogue to adjust such points.

Primero quiero mencionar la reseña de una estrella de un chico que como nosotros, tuvo que irse mucho más temprano. La casa está sucia, hay moscas por todos lados, incluso en la nevera, y las sábanas parecen no estar lavadas. Aunque siempre termináramos las tareas, se enfadó si hemos trabajado menos que 5h. Además de estos horas teníamos que cocinar para todos y lavar los platos incluso cuando yo estaba mal. Nos despertaba antes el proyeto alarma y entraba en la habitación(que no tenía puerta)mientras dormimos. Después de irnos nos acusó de destruir un filtro que ni siquiera sabemos dónde está.
