Creative people needed to arrange the space

My first World-packers experience was challenging. I felt disrespected by Nina's attitude towards me and the other volunteers. I tried to resolve any misunderstanding in person but unfortunately there was no improvement. I felt there were many lines crossed between me and the host like trying to prevent me from taking a sick day and her speaking badly about me to other volunteers. The location itself is beautiful but with lack of engagement from Nina and her high demands despite no proper support, it felt like a job for me and very stressful at times with her very long messages after hours.

Working at the hotel has been amazing, the hours are great, the tasks are simple and the place is dreamy. Nina is the greatest gift I can take away from the experience, she is sweet and understanding, but she is also surrounded by an amazing group of people.

I really enjoyed my time at the hotel. The place is beautiful and the nature around too. Nina is a great host and made the stay easy and fun! The job is really easy and quite entertaining once you get the hang of it. But even tho it's beautiful, it's really far from any city/town and supermarkets, so if you don't drive or have a big budget for taxis, you can't do much, except for hiking or staying in. It's not an experience for the people that want to socialize and see the cities, but if you're looking for a place to disconnect from the world and connect with nature i would recommend it a lot!

Nina has an amazing property, the nature is beautiful and she has lovely animals. Nina had welcomed us warmly and did her best to make us feel at home. We did the breakfast from 8-12 everyday. She arranged a lot of thing for us to do in the area since her property is a quite remote, which we enjoyed a lot. However we did stumble upon some problems later on. She likes things a certain way and sometimes did not communicate that clearly/directly to us. Nina always wants the best for her guests and works very hard. Despite leaving a bit earlier we had a good time! Greetings Janieke and Thessa

I tried to do everything that was best for you, but unfortunately I did not feel that you were open-hearted and open-minded for acquiring new knowledge and getting used to working under pressure and changes. I certainly wish you the best in life. ❤️

El hotel es un lugar lleno de paz y tranquilidad. Tiene un entorno natural que vale la pena explorar, con la posibilidad de llegar a ríos y cascadas, vía hiking. La cabaña donde me quedé es cómoda y acogedora. Nina es muy generosa y siempre estuvo preocupada de que nada faltara. Cocina muy bien (con un sabor único y especial, extrañaré sus sopas). El trabajo es liviano y durante el mes que estuve ahí, aprendí mucho. Nina fue muy paciente al explicarme las tareas, ya que mi inglés no era tan bueno. Agradezco ese gesto. Me voy feliz por el lugar y las personas que conocí. Mis mejor deseos al hotel.

Infeliz experiência. Apesar da acomodação e alimentação boa, o resto foi negativo. Nina nunca tem tempo para ensinar o trabalho, mas tem tempo para enviar mensagens/áudios o dia todo cobrando e falando mal de um voluntário para outro. Não se engane com fotos bonitas do lugar, porque você não pode usar nada, nem mesmo o banheiro, até para ir trabalhar voce não pode entrar pelo portão principal. Não me senti respeitada como ser humano, a atitude dela me fez sentir tensa e pressionada, os 3 voluntários que estavam comigo saíram traumatizados da mesma forma. Esse não é o objetivo do voluntariado.

I sincerely hope that the other hosts will not fall for your wonderful introduction at the beginning.
That they will not give you all the conditions, like you are guests, such as myself, so that they understand that you are only there for material interests and extra earnings, and volunteering is just a cover.
It's sad how willing you are to lie. Guvno was energetically cleansed after your premature departure and flourished.

Há pontos positivos e negativos. É um lugar lindo para se conectar com a natureza, com chalé climatizado. Nina fornece alimentação e é flexível com os horários de trabalho. No entanto, após o expediente, ela não está disponível e fez acusações injustas, além de falar mal de outros voluntários. Nina não tem paciência para ensinar. Atenção ao trabalho extra, pode ser um problema. Dependendo do número de voluntários, eles podem ter que dormir em colchões improvisados. A máquina de lavar só consegui usar uma vez em um mês. Nina deseja um funcionário, não um voluntário. Desejo muita luz ao the hotel.
