Mauro
Mauro works at the El Colibri Hotel, an hour outside of Cordoba, Argentina. Cordoba is in the center of Argentina, and is in a region that is flat and good for farming. At the inn, Mauro milks the cows, feeds the animals, and takes care of the farm. For schoolwork, I had to interview him and learned a lot about him.
Mauro has been working for El Colibri for four years. His favorite animals are the horses, but he likes to play with all of the animals especially the dogs, cows, and horses. He likes almost everything about his job and it is all easy for him because he grew up on a farm. Luckily, he has never been hurt badly by any of the animals, but he has gotten a few scrapes.
While we were staying at El Colibri, Mauro gave us a Monk Parakeet to keep. We built a house for it and put it in our windowsill. Once people had seen the parakeet, everybody wanted it. On the last day, we came back from breakfast and the parakeet was gone. We searched for it but couldn’t find it and we haven’t figured out yet if it just escaped or if somebody wanted it so badly that they took it. Mauro told me that it was hard to catch, so I guess he might not catch another for a while. I learned a lot about Mauro during the interview and think that taking care of the farm might be a really interesting job to have.
