Unfortunately due to the unexpected intensity of my studies during this time It was difficult for me to find the right balance and be able to contribute my fullest to the … read more
Desafortunadamente ella estaba muy ocupada en sus estudios y del hostal, los otros voluntarios e incluso los huespedes, no le importaba en absoluto.
Ella nunca tuvo iniciativas, siempre había que decirle qué hacer, de lo contrario estaba pegada a su computadora.
Además, ella se fue antes del … read more
Le falta un poco de iniciativa, pero fue su primera experiencia. Estoy seguro de que puede dar más
Barbara siempre una persona positiva y disponible.
El trabajo divertido, que da la oportunidad de conoscer gente y perfeccionar idiomas con los huéspedes.
Con los otros voluntarios me llevé súper bien.
Me quede dos meses, un pueblo amable y tranquilo donde mejore mi español
Espero de regresar … read more
The hostel is owned by Barbara and Franco. Barbara is a nice lady with a good heart. Sadly I found Franco to be unfriendly as he made no effort to welcome me to the hostel or communicate. You don't see much of the owners as the … read more
pero está distraído y no está muy interesado en lo que hace.
Falta un poco de esfuerzo
Sono stata a las Galeras da Barbara e Franco due mesi anziché uno.
Sono stata benissimo, ho conosciuto tanta gente, ho migliorato il mio inglese e ho scoperto tante cose di cultura diversa.
Barbara è una ottima host, ti fa sentire a tuo agio, è una persona semplice, disponibile e sensibile.
Comunica molto chiaramente quindi … read more
¡Gracias por estar con nosotros!
El trabajo fue divertido, aprendí mucho y siempre estoy feliz de volver con barbara y franco.
Súper adecuado para el ambiente de nuestro hostal.
Comunicativa y divertida
I just think you lack experience.
She was supposed to stay with us for 1 month, but after 2/3 days she preferred to give up
Disponibile e attento nel lavoro, ma tanto "quadrato", un po' difficile per l'ambiente di un ostello
Without many initiatives, but willing to collaborate
Probablemente también será una buena persona y no he tenido la oportunidad de conocerla personalmente.
Pero ella no se conectó con nadie del staff y no cooperó en nada.
Pasó sus horas trabajando en la computadora por sí misma, tomándose unos momentos para promocionar nuestro hostal on líne. … read more
Tutto positivo!
Grazie Mariana di essere tata con noi!
In assoluto il migliore volontario con cui abbiamo collaborato!
Solare, disponibile, intelligente, geniale, comunicativo, simpatico, gentile e non so cosa dire di piu' ....
Recommended!
Las Galeras es un lugar maravilloso y tranquilo y el hostal se queda justo en el centro.
Muchas gracias por todo cariño y amistad. He … read more
