  • Description

    Hello to whoever is reading this:)

    I am a 21 year old girl from Sweden who is taking a few years off school to explore as much of the world as possible before attending university. I am a very versatile person with loads of interest and hobbies. After backpacking all across Europe and Asia I have learnt that I love life in the city since I am a huge fan of history and culture and love to get lost among small streets filled with life, emerging in different cultures with amazing people, food, languages and history. But since I grew up at the Swedish country side I also truly enjoy a more simply and close to earth way of living. I am not afraid of getting my hands dirty and working with my hands in nature. I have experience with boats, tractors and many years experience with my own horses. Also growing my own food or just plants in general is a huge interest of mine that I would love to expand on and learn more about since I have plans on starting studying biology and agriculture.

    In general I am a very social person that is used to having loads of people around me since I have lived and worked in hostels for 6 months so meeting new people and learning about their culture is something I have learnt to love!

    Apart from traveling I have experience with working in service, restaurants, cafés, amusement park and with child care back in Sweden where I have really learnt combining efficiency and superb service with a smile:)

    Right now am I studying french in Aix-en-Provence because I have a big interest in the french-speaking world and maybe want to move to france or any other french speaking country in the future. But, I have loads of free time since school finishes at 12.30 every day and weekends are pretty much always free. That’s why I want to meet french speakers to help me practice my french in exchange of anything! I am more than happy to help with cleaning, chores, babysitting, animals, projects… anything!! Just to have something to do and take advantage of my time here!

  • More details about your skills

    Apart from working in numerous hostels all over the world, I have also had several jobs in sweden. The most recent was at a indian restaurant in the center of Gothenburg where I was a waitress for 7 months. It was a very challenging job with a very high tempo but I learned a lot about the restaurant industry and how to be a welcoming waitress.
    Before that I worked in a 7eleven in the busiest street of Gothenburg. I learned to have thick skin and handel a lot of situations on my own while having responsibility over the store even during the night.
    In 2021 I have been working at Sweden's largest amusement park, Liseberg, as a ride operator and in the cashier selling tickets. During 2019 I worked at children's amusement house. It was a very fun job where I mostly cooked simple food like hamburgers and pancakes, sat in the register or organized and took care of birthday parties.
