Description

In February, I'm embarking on an exciting adventure to New Zealand with a Working Holiday Visa (WHV) for a year. I'll be traveling throughout the country for 10 months, exploring its stunning landscapes and rich culture.

I have a passion for the great outdoors, with hiking being one of my favorite activities. You'll often find me enjoying the trails and soaking in nature's beauty. I also have a love for ice hockey and skiing—being from Canada, they're practically in my DNA!

Dogs hold a special place in my heart. I grew up with a golden retriever named Phil, who was my loyal companion and best friend.

I hold an economics degree from the University of British Columbia in Kelowna, BC. During my studies, I experienced living independently for 4 years, which helped me grow and appreciate the joys of self-reliance.

I'm excited to immerse myself in new experiences, meet incredible people, and make lasting memories during my journey. I'm looking forward to connecting with others and contributing to the community along the way.

More details about your skills

I am an athletic and able-bodied individual, passionate about maintaining an active lifestyle. My love for hiking and skiing demonstrates my physical fitness and dedication to outdoor activities. This ensures I am always up for any physical task or challenge that comes my way.

Independence and self-reliance are key aspects of my character. My time spent living on my own during my studies in Kelowna has honed these traits, making me adept at managing my own needs and navigating new environments confidently.

Through my experience working at Starbucks, I have developed excellent communication skills. Engaging with customers daily has refined my ability to communicate effectively, manage diverse interactions, and provide exceptional service.

Oh, and let's not forget my advanced economics knowledge thanks to my economics degree. In case you need someone to analyze the economic implications of your morning coffee, I'm your person!
