I am currently living in a hotel away from home, and there is this housekeeping guy who cleans my room almost every day.

He barely speaks English, so we can barely communicate, but man, he is genuinely one of the sweetest people I have ever met.

Every time he cleans my room, I can tell he puts his heart into it. He always tries his absolute best to make me comfortable, and I genuinely love coming back to my room after he has cleaned it.

About two weeks ago, he put this little air freshener in my room that made it smell absolutely AMAZING.

The next day when I saw him, I told him how much I loved it and how happy it made me. He was really happy seeing me appreciate it.

I even told him about my friend, and he went and put one in his room too.

And today I asked if I could get another one, he told me that the hotel does not provide them and he doesn't have one and was sorry about it, I was really confused and asked where it was from, he said it was from the supermarket right next to the hotel.

And I went and bought one and it was actually not cheap, then I realized something that genuinely made me want to cry.

This man had been buying these air fresheners with his own hard earned money, just to make sure he could make me as comfortable as he could.

And what really saddens is that he probably does not earn much to begin with. Yet he is spending his own money on something he absolutely does not have to, just to make someone else happy.

He never told me he bought them himself. Never mentioned the money. Never asked for anything in return.

He just saw how happy it made me, and that seemed to make him happy too.

I usually leave him tips whenever I see him, and I swear every single time, he reacts like I have just bought him a car.

He is genuinely the most appreciative person I have ever met. His reaction always makes me want to give him even more.

I even tell my mom about him and how happy he gets whenever I tip him.

But today, finding out that he had been spending his own money on these little things for me genuinely brought tears to my eyes.

It is not really about the air freshener, it is about someone who works hard every single day, probably earning far less than he deserves, and still finding it in his heart to spend some of that money just to make a stranger feel comfortable.

I am living away from my family, and coming back to a clean, comfortable room after a long day means more to me than he probably realizes.

We barely speak the same language, but somehow this man has made me feel more at home than he could ever imagine.

I have been thinking about him all morning. I genuinely wish I could do more for him. I am definitely going to give him a little extra next time I see him, and I want to make sure his management knows just how wonderful he is.

I just wanted to share this because sometimes the smallest gestures can touch your heart in ways you would never expect.

I do not think I will ever forget this man.

And I really, really hope life treats him with the same kindness he has shown me.
