Description
✎ Hello, my name is Vanessa. I am 32. I am French. I arrived in Canada in September 2020.
I stayed for 9 months in Montreal to work as a marketing coordinator for a real estate banner. After this first experience, I travelled around Canada to discover it! I did two volunteering in Gaspésie: one month at the Hostel Manoir des Sapins, and three weeks at the Hostel Forillon. I volunteered in BC in a hostel, another one in a shelter in Tofino and a last one in the Yukon for a musher.
My goal was to improve my English and I did it thanks to all these experiences!
I'm in the process of asking for my permanent residence in the Yukon via nomination. I'm working for a lodge in the Yukon and I enjoy this time to convert my job. As soon I have my residence, I will work as a naturalist for whale watching and bears viewing in BC!
I'm looking for:
- meet people in the Yukon
- improve my English again and againInterests
