Travel information

Description

Hi! My name is Maggie (Margaret is my 'official' name) and I am a 27 year old Australian currently travelling in Japan.

I recently quit my full time job in Melbourne, and have returned to Japan to travel, spend time with friends, work on my Japanese language skills, and learn new skills to live a more sustainable way of life. 
最近、オーストラリアのメルボルンでフルタイムの仕事をやめて、旅行をしたり友達と時間を過ごしたり日本語を練習したり新しい持続可能な生き方のスキルを学んだりするために日本に戻ってきました。

I am a fit, sociable person who is very willing to learn and get my hands dirty! I have good language/teaching skills, communication skills, computer skills, knowledge of textiles (Bachelor of Textiles Design), and dance/yoga abilities. I also love looking after animals.

私はフィットと人付き合いがいい人です。よく習いたくて一所懸命働く人。私のスキルは:英語を教えるの、コミュニケーションのスキル、コンピューターのスキル、テキスタイルの知識、ダンスとヨガのスキル。動物の世話をするのも好きです。


I spent two years living in Japan (1 year as a performer at Universal Studios in Osaka, and 1 year as an English teaching in primary schools in Iwaki-shi, Fukushima-ken). At home, in Australia, I have been a swim teacher, bartender, receptionist, shop assistant, and university recruitment liaison.

二年間日本に住んだことがあります。一年間はパフォーマーとして大阪でユニバーサルスタジオジャパンで働いていました。一年間は福島県のいわき市で小学校の英語の先生で働きました。オーストラリアで色々な仕事があった:水泳の先生、バーテンダー、受付係、店員と大学採用エージェント.
