    Background

    I am searching a seasonal position abroad for the upcoming winter. I would like to broaden my skills and cultural knowledge. I am not specifically looking for a job/title with responsabilities. Resourceful and curious, passionate about the discovery of new know-how, I enjoy learning with and from others, and sharing my zest for life and passion for nature! I would be happy to join your team and help you to greet your customers, sell items or organise events. I can also assist you in your outdoor activities, help you to preserve and promote our wonderful Nature and your cultural heritage, and so on. My strong administrative, organisational and interpersonal skills allow me to quickly become effective in any type of fast-paced environment. So, don’t wait any longer, get in touch!
