    Hey, my name is Tom!

    I would describe me as a very communicative and good mood person, who is a team player but can also work on his own.

    For two winter seasons i gained the experience to work physically hard, when I was employed as a storekeeper and allrounder in a ski resort in Switzerland. Among other things, I had to manage the warehouse there, help in the kitchen, shovel snow and help with other craft and cleaning tasks.

    In the following season I was employed as a receptionist also in this ski resort until April this year. In this job, I was able to use my communication skills more and also had to speak several languages on a daily basis, which I enjoyed very much!

    I am sure that I will be able to use these skills successfully in Canada and I am looking forward to many interesting tasks!

    Hey, I am Matthias!

    I left my homebase Neuss 10 years ago and moved to Berlin to develop personally and professionally, as you get all kinds of opportunities to do that there.

    I did my apprenticeship as a plant mechanic because this kind of work fulfills me completely. I like working with my hands and at the end of the day you can see what you have accomplished. In addition, teamwork is very important to me, so that the work is done sensibly and is fun.

    The last few years I worked as a senior fitter, I had a small team and did the coordination and site management, plus I was an instructor.

    My motivation comes from the fact that I am adventurous and like to be outside.
    i like to ride my bike and do bigger tours, 2 years ago i rode with a friend across germany (from berlin to neuss), biking gave me the opportunity to meet all kinds of people and increased my desire to go far away

    ...and then Tom came up with the glorious idea to go to canada and it convinced me right away to come along, because i can combine all this here!
