  • Description

    Originally coming from the French Alpes I am excited to spend the next year in and around Bergen, where I hope to experience and learn more about life in Norway.

    In my spare time during the winter I like to ski, and during the summer I like to hike and cycle. I’m sure Norway will feel almost like home over the next year.

  • More details about your skills

    I have been working as a project manager or executive in the fields of economic development for NGO and later the city of Grenoble since 2018. Before that, during my studies and the two years gap i had first, i use to work mainly as a ski or bike mechanic also renting gear and selling technical clothes. These jobs led me to get technical qualifications. I also worked part time as a kitchen help or waiter during my studies and while traveling abroad.
    I love team work, I like to talk to people and meet new persons which makes me enjoy customers relations.
    I like to organize my work and that helped me to find my way in a restaurant kitchen or to work under pressure.
    I am quite good at building and construction as long as I have instructions.

  • What else ...

    My main goal during this Norwegian stay is to ski as much as I can ! I love all kind of skiing activities : skating, alpine, telemark and of course touring. Before feeling safe to go touring alone I would love to meet people that would be able to teach me about snow condition in Norway as I believe it can be really different from the alps.
    I would love to stay in the south during the deep winter as I'm not sure I would survive without seeing the sun in the day but I'm traveling with a small van which (I hope) will allow me to discover the northern part of Norway during spring.
