Gisela and her husband were nice, but in 2 weeks I worked like 4 days. I spent almost all the time in my room, waiting for an assignment that never came. I asked if we could schedule, but the schedule was never respected. I also felt really lonely, as I was the only volunteer, and the place is isolated. I asked Gisela if a friend could volunteer too. She approved her on the app but later told me no without saying anything to my friend. I left earlier. They wouldn't take me to the airport (40min by car) and I had to do 4h of trains with all my bags. They have a lot of nice projects though...

I gave you tasks to do, you told me that the weed trimmer had been downloaded and it wasn't true; once I am deceived it's hard to trust. I understand that the tasks might not have been fun for you, I didn't see any initiative from you. Do not expect me to be a sergeant and order you what to do, show initiative. When I was in the living room and we could do things, you didn't come out of your room; I'm not going to knock on your door and bother you; you are the one in my house and therefore you are the one who must show interest in helping and doing. I spent the whole morning, at the agreed times, working. I picked you up at Barcelona airport on your arrival; it wasn't an obligation. I invited you and paid all your expenses for a day in Barcelona, including a cocktail bar and dinner; there was no obligation to take you to the airport, you are supposed to be an adult to manage these things. I stopped helping you when I felt you were taking advantage. How could I accept a friend of yours with the behavior you were having? So that two people take advantage of the stay and the meals and make me feel uncomfortable in my own home? I know it's due to age, you have a lot to learn and you lack much education. Reflect on this.

The host is Pura Vida!, good vibes!, kind, cultured, educated; her guesthouse is comfortable, she doesn't live there, she works only 4 hours independently, calm, relaxed, everything in silence for meditation; cleaning the patio of leaves and weeds, three large bags of weeds are collected per day, she has two fruit trees to eat from, blackberry and cherries; the bicycles are damaged, the area is only curves and climbs, they couldn't be used, although she offers only breakfast, Guisell is generous, she provided me with enough food for the week, you reach Calella by train, she picks us up there.

We had a great time at Gisela's house. Very kind, honest, and talkative. We debated many topics and it is pleasant to meet people like her from whom we can learn more about Catalan and Spanish culture. I would come back at any time. Thanks Gisela. 😁👍

La experiencia fue buena y el trabajo fue muy tranquilo. No hay horarios establecidos y para mi eso estaba bien, muy relajado. Me senti muy a gusto y disfrute de la paz y tranquilidad de la casa de Gisela El lugar es muy lindo pero muy alejado de Barcelona. Lo positivo es que Gisela y Fran me acercaron al centro y luego acordabamos punto de encuentro para la vuelta. Info adicional para ir al centro de Bcna se necesitan 3 trasbordos un bus y dos trenes, eso lleva 2.30 hs.aprox. fines de semana no hay buses.
