Mariya es una persona llena de energía y positividad, con una actitud muy buena para la ayuda.
Apredimos mucho de su cultura e incluso cocino un dia okonomiyaki...super bueno!
Fuimos a escalar un día y aunque le dio al principio un poco de miedo, llego hasta el final de la via.
Esperamos verte pronto Mariya, aquí o en Osaka!!!

I planned to stay only for two weeks at Felix' and Paloma's place, but I ended up staying longer than planned because I enjoyed it so much! The place is amazing, the project is super interesting, and the two hosts are "muy muy sympaticos"... they became really good friends! Hope to go back pretty soon, and I would recommend this place anytime! :)
