I was always a little in awe of Martha Stewart's supposed schedule, that she used to put in the front of her magazine. Monday: Transplant the hydrangea. Tuesday: Put it back in its original pot, it was prettier. Wednesday: Milk the goat. Thursday: Knit angora sweater. Friday: Wear sweater. (Nevermind the army of minions with the REAL To Do lists.) Point is: keep it short. :)
You have autism but at a high level if you can figure out when you need to give your hosts some space.
Executive functioning is a huge thing for people on the spectrum (and for a lot of so called neuro typical people as well). A coach would be extremely helpful.
I was never a fan of "hustle culture" either. I need space in my schedule to breathe and reflect. Being retired I have too much space sometimes and never get out of the reflection mode.
I probably noticed my hosts needed space about ten days after they actually started feeling that way, but thanks for the props. Enjoy your breathing and reflecting time. You've earned it. :)

My list is a little more involved, but I agree, simple is always good. Which reminds me, I need to go replant my hydrangea.

I enjoyed your Hawaiian trip very much.
