Was könntest du arbeiten?

Today I am an inspiring Junior Chef who has developed his skills in being both a Garde Manger (Pantry Chef) and most recently as a Commis Chef (Breakfast Line Cook).
I enjoy working with all types of animals from cats and dogs to horses and cattle alike.
I love cooking, teaching, working with children, reading & drawing.

Was noch ...

Last summer I was working as a summer camp counselor in upstate New York, USA; I loved this experience as we went on many overnight hikes, cooked food outdoors & made lifelong memories.
I've recently been playing the boardgame "aggravation" which is highly addictive and can be quiet competitive. I also know some kids card games too (They're awesome to pass the time on a cold winters day).
