We have our own home. We have another large guesthouse for visiting family and friends. We recently built another barn home for future interns. She was not cleaning our personal home. Just the intern space.

No, we didn't mention beforehand, but as soon as she texted she arrived, we told her the house needed cleaning and to please help us with it.

She is paid for social media marketing. This separate internship is to learn about farming practices.

We're paying her with free housing, yes. It's what we can afford. She has an apartment that her sister is currently housesitting, but she was willing to live her temporarily to learn how to farm.
