Web and social media help needed in The Atlas Mountains

Beautiful nature and interesting project. I learned from Said about how he uses sustainable and recycled methods to build his house. Sometimes he has interesting ideas and likes to take his time. However, I think he needs better communication with people, and the house needs more rules and improved sanitation, so we stayed for a shorter time than expected.

My experience, which was supposed to last 2 weeks, ended after 15 hours. On the first morning we were together, Said showed impatience with differences and was aggressive in his communication. After shouting at us, he showed no willingness to have a non-aggressive dialogue to resolve the issue. We felt threatened and received help from a host who had already witnessed this type of behavior from Said with other volunteers. This is a warning that it was not an isolated case, the place also has no phone or internet coverage and is also extremely dirty and disorganized.

My time volunteering at Said place was short and challenging. We have to leave in the second day. we didn't feel safe and he was not open to dialogue sober. His approach often felt aggressive,out of temper and authoritarian, which led to a tense atmosphere from day one. Discussions escalated quickly, and there were instances of shouting and mocking that made me uncomfortable. This behavior goes against the spirit of volunteer work, which thrives on mutual respect and positive experiences. I hope this feedback can be a step towards creating a more welcoming environment for all volunteers.

These comments, are ment to help others who are going to volunteer in the future. And not just for the sake of good feedback to get more "jobs". It was what I was expecting: Low higiene, conditions, food These were not a problem for me. But after I had denied certain things of a more sexual interest, Said showed himself to be very unpacient and with a bad temper on the next day. He is not a bad person. He helped me to get to the resort, gave me food, and a nice room. Irs is very much a paradise there. I left cause I felt my time was being wasted and didnt feel safe as a gay man

El lugar no fue lo que yo esperaba, el lugar estaba muy sucio y el es una persona muy desasiada, se reía de nosotros y hacía chiste sobre nuestra apariencia física o lo que usábamos, nos quitó la comida al segundo día y lo que compramos lo usaba sin pedir permiso, yo la verdad no recomiendo que vayan a este lugar. Además te hace sentir estúpido con el trabajo que el te pone, si lo haces de otra manera te va a decir que no y hará comentarios como si tú fueras un estúpido.

Mi experiencia en el lugar de Said fue muy buena, el lugar que tiene Said es super lindo, acogedor y rodeado de naturaleza, esta dentro de la cordillera de Atlas mountain, por lo que los hikings durante la estancia son un must definitivamente! las actividades en el voluntariado consiste en ayudar a restaurar la casa que sufrió daños en durante el terremoto del año pasado, aprendí a construir muros, usar materiales propios de la region, restaurar paredes, ademas de apoyar a Said en otras tares de la casa. Said hace todo por que te sientas comodo en su casa y la comida es deliciosa!

Con Said pasamos tressemanas maravillosas de voluntariado y hiking, vimos amaneceres y atardeceres espectaculares en las montañas atlas, caminamos hacia la cascada en el valle de Imlil y en la casa en una de las habitaciones hicimos renovating brick work, en el jardín hicimos tareas de renovación y aprendimos sobre bio construcción, preparamos pizzas caseras en el horno a leña y degustamos exquisitos tayines en el salón con fire place todas las noches y aprendimos más sobre la cultura local,sin duda una experiencia súper recomendable, Bambu bambú Said !!
