My first day on the finca (2025.07.29)

I arrived on the finca yesterday (on 2025.07.28) around midday/noon.

Yesterday (and even earlier once) I had a brief tour of thls finca.

This finca is big. I am still getting to know this place.

My room and my bed is convenient.

I slept well.

I fell asleep around midnight, and today I woke up around 08:00.

I worked in the garden for two and a half hours in the morning. And I worked also two and a half hours in ths kitchen in the afternoon.

So I worked a total of five hours per day.

This (the five hours per day work) is the daily routine from Monday to Friday on this finca.

My weekends are free.

I do this work for the accomodation and for the daily food too.

So I am not paying rent (money) for the wood house accommodation.

There are various groups/teams on the finca.

And so far I worked only in the gardening team, and in the kitchen team.

Today in the morning I mostly watered plants. Even the ones in front of my accommodation. And I moved three plants from a smaller pot to a bigger pot.

I still have not seen every plant on the finca. Only approximately the half of it. And I will see the other half tomorrow morning.

Today in the afternoon I helped in the kitchen to make lunch.

I cooked potatoes, and I helped making a meat, cheese, and melon dishes for the lunch.

And I have put the glasses, and the cups and the mugs on two trays on the table for the drinks.

So far I like this place and the people.

Hopefully this place will be good for me for long term (at least for a few years).
