La experiencia en la casa fue muy hermosa y mucho aprendizaje. En un principio nos íbamos a quedar 10 días y al final nos quedamos 1 mes 😀 Volveríamos siempre a Paraty y el proyeto. Muchas gracias por todo!

Eu não pretendia avaliar essa experiência por questões pessoais. Participei do projeto fazendo postagens diárias, com o design pronto no Canva. Meu trabalho envolvia recortar fotos e editar textos, e muitas vezes fiz essas postagens fora do meu horário de trabalho, entre 13 e 28 de setembro. Posso comprovar e, se houver dúvidas, basta verificar o Instagram da casa, onde fiz de 3 a 4 postagens diárias durante minha estadia. Desejo que ela reflita sobre sua postura, encontre paz, pratique a comunicação não violenta, e evite fazer acusações sem provas, pois tudo está devidamente documentado.

As 4 perguntas básicas da plataforma são: 1.Você se sentiu bem vindo e respeitado? -Não, a anfitriã estava sempre grossa e sem paciência. 2.As horas combinadas foram respeitadas? -Não, combinamos 12-18 mas depois de trabalhar até 9hrs da noite a anfitriã manda mensagem no sábado, no domingo, exigindo tarefas e avisando que vai precisar mudar o horário na segunda feira. 3. Você teve um local básico para dormir e trabalhar? Não, não tinha mesa/cadeira. 4.Você se divertiu nessa experiência? Não, estava sempre sob ameaça de expulsão se não seguisse o que era mandado sem questionar.

I hope that other hostesses and hosts do not have the misfortune of having Lucas as a volunteer.
You are misusing the platform.
You do not respect the agreements, you use other people's space as if it were your office or your home, and the worst part is that you have no ability to relate in collaborative environments and with people.
I strongly recommend that you return to your city and pay rent for an office or work from your home.
Here in our organization we know the value of keeping a space.
We pay water, electricity, internet and rent.... perhaps it's time for Lucas to start doing the same and not take advantage of a tool like this platform for his own benefit.
Lucas really believes that he is doing a favor when he volunteers.
Lucas firmly believes that his work in social media is exceptional and that the platform host should even pay for his services.
What Lucas has not yet realized is that the platform offers a two-way relationship, where both parties can benefit, and that makes us have valuable exchanges, like the one our organization had with a couple who stayed with us for 1 month and became friends and allies of our cause.
Completely different from Lucas.
Run away from this volunteer!!!
