LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Gary, the ad we ran in the Caretaker Gazette in the November
issue attracted over 130 applicants from all over the country. It
was a bit overwhelming, with the high quality of applicants
making the choice a difficult one. Thanks to your publication we
were able to find just the person we wanted. Thanks, M.H.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX NC

Glad to read another success story with The Caretaker Gazette,
Mike! Please spread the good word about The Caretaker Gazette.
Thanks Mike.

Dear Gary: Just a thought - I have talked with other subscribers
and some of us have faced the same frustrating dilemma. We send
resumes, information, and even a SASE to some potential employers
and never hear a word. No notice that our information was
received, no word that the caretaking position has been filled or
they're simply not interested in us, etc. Is there some way your
publication can encourage an article for persons placing ads
advocating some sort of response to applicants? I know this is
hard. It just seems there is no courtesy anymore. They won't even
return a SASE saying they're not interested! Just something to
think about. Thanks, K.C. Lake Geneva, WI

Keith, I always ask the advertisers to have the common
courtesy to reply to all applicants, even after they fill their
position. We've printed notices about it in the Gazette and will
continue to request that all advertisers kindly respond to all
applicants, and hope they comply! Many of our advertisers do
respond to applicants, even if it’s just a postcard or an
email message indicating that they have filled their
position.

We have moved and accepted a caretaking position we saw
advertised in the Gazette. Thank you. We are very busy in our new
position right now. We are caretakers at a camp that is in full
swing for the summer. We know the Berkshires will be a great
place to spend the summer. Our best to you, and keep those
Gazettes coming. We love the opportunities that you are providing
us in the Gazette. N. M. Great Barrington, MA

Thanks for your kind words, Nancy. I’m glad your new
caretaking assignment is offering you a nice summer there!

We placed an ad for a caretaker for our remote ranch in New
Mexico thinking that we might get a couple of responses. Ha! To
our surprise and delight we received over 60. It was actually a
daunting task to sort and respond to so many candidates. There
were some dreamers, of course; but, overall, the qualifications
of the applicants were surprising. We have hired a couple who
will be starting in April. I'm pleased and excited about the new
situation. Thanks for your helpful publication. R.T., Coyote NM

Thanks for letting us know that the ad you placed in The
Caretaker Gazette resulted in so many responses from qualified
candidates and that, in the end, you were able to find a couple
to caretake your ranch. Many of the property owners who advertise
in the Gazette have told us that they have found the best people
to housesit or caretake their properties.

Address: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Chris Kowalski with Yeshe

I started to subscribe to your wonderful Caretaker Gazette about
four years before I retired. Since then I have traveled around
the world just reading ads in your paper and virtually meeting
the people without every meeting them in person. It has been a
very interesting journey testing different opportunities and
waiting for right one. It may sound funny but I felt that the ads
in your paper were a kind of personal letter from the Universe
destined for me.
One day there was a Gazette ad that would change my life forever.
The ad contained the magic words, "Ratna Ling"; in
Tibetan this means Jewel Crest or Jewel Garden and it is
gorgeous! You can check it out at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.
Ratna Ling is a place where volunteers work while simultaneously
studying ancient wisdom under the direction of Tarthang Tulku, a
Tibetan Lama who has lived in America since 1968. This would
prove to be the experience of life time.
My name is Chris Kowalski; I’m a retired merchant marine
chief engineer officer. Over my 20 years at sea, I’ve
learned to respect the forces of nature and even enjoy them.
Enter Ratna Ling, with over 100 acres of pristine beauty in
Northern California, just a short distance from the Pacific
Ocean. It became my home for almost a year. Surrounded by
majestic redwoods and wildlife; wild turkeys, deer and rabbits, I
had the privilege of having nature at my fingertips. I worked as
a volunteer maintenance engineer while at the same time growing
spiritually through meditation, Tibetan yoga (kum nye) and
teachings performed by highly qualified professionals on a wide
range of interesting subjects. An atmosphere of self-discipline
and respect to others allowed me to discover my own hidden
potentials and taught me to silence my mind and calm my pain and
fears that had still been sitting hidden after my car accident
some years ago.
The property even had tennis courts and years ago Chris Evert and
Martina Navratilova played exhibition games there. With the help
of my young volunteer friends we made the neglected courts
operational again. Thanks to Barr the Director, we got top of the
line equipment and two months after my arrival, Sunday tennis
school became a fact. I could teach dozens of people of all ages
my beloved sport. Daily yoga exercises did miracles for my
arthritic legs with many thanks to my Yoga teachers for their
guidance.
In Ratna Ling you can meet volunteers from all over the world.
Lots of young people come here every year to learn ancient wisdom
on how to silence the mind while living in this sometimes crazy
world of ours. With the blessings of Tibetan Lama Tarthang Tulku
and his generous friends, Ratna Ling is shaping up to be a place
where West and East will meet on the subjects of science,
spirituality and holistic healing to exchange experiences and
knowledge for the benefit of all humankind. This very modern
retreat center offers regular workshops in meditations, Tibetan
Yoga, and healing lectures for people in need and will have a
meeting center with world class symposium capacity. One of the
most interesting adventures you may ever experience is at Ratna
Ling.
Ratna Ling also has Dharma Publishing and the Yeshe De press
house. These are modern facilities where you can be a part of
Yeshe De, Ancient Texts Preservation Project, a visionary project
of the Lama. Printing and distributing books and publishing
sacred arts and texts are part of project. Dharma Publishing
offers 11 highly recommended books by Tarthang Tulku helping to
create balance and harmony in yourself and the world. Not many of
us know that Tibet has been under Chinese occupation for over 40
years. Many innocent people die, monasteries have been destroyed
and ancient texts burned. Ancient wisdom and texts are like the
rain forest. We must preserve them for next generations at all
costs, otherwise our civilization will suffocate slowly from
endless wars, suffering ignorance and greed.
My story will not be complete if I didn’t mention my
personal assistant, a golden retriever named Yeshe. She was with
me eight hours a day taking care of property maintenance, waiting
patiently in the golf cart for our intimate walks through the
forest, and of course greeting me every morning. I already miss
my friends and mentors and look forward to seeing them again.
Thank you Caretaker Gazette, for letting me share my story. I am
grateful for your Gazette helping me to connect with people and
places and for discovering this world.

Americans retiring to Latin and South America. I'm
interested in retiring to either Central or South America and
would love to correspond with others who have done this. I'm
interested in the good as well as the downside to all areas. I'm
a sixty year old lady looking to retire early to a different
lifestyle away from the corporate world, to a simpler life, where
my retirement will go further. One of my main concerns is
healthcare as I understand Medicare doesn't cover retirees
outside the US. Please respond back to me at XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
