Description
Hello, I am Marit :)))
I come from a small village in the Swiss alps. I have been traveling a lot ever since I was a kid and love discovering new cultures, people and places. Apart from that I am a big reader and do different arts and crafts like sewing and embroidery. But I would love to learn some more skills of that sort. As for sports, I did some horseback riding and a lot of skiing of course. I am fluent in German and English and on top of that I also speak some French but would like to further improve it.
At fifteen I spent almost a year in the French speaking part of Switzerland working as an au-pair. After that I did a three year apprenticeship in the hospitality business, where I still work part time. But currently my main focus is studying so I can go to university.
Over all I think I am a very open and positive person who still enjoys some quiet down time to think and relax in nature. -

More details about your skills
I love to cook and sew in my free time and would say I'm quite good at it too. My mom has a big garden where I like to help and I help my dad when he is working on my car. Although I am handy I don't have a huge knowledge of my own about either of those things.
I used to work as an au-pair which thought me a variety of domestic tasks. There I also spent a lot of time with children. Later I worked in hospitality and learnt a lot about the customer service industry. I speak German, English and a decent French. -
