Description

Hey ! I'm Catriona, I grew up in the french speaking part of Switzerland close to nature and mountains, which is the reason my enthusiasm for mountains, climbing, trekking, skiing and many other sports keeps growing and makes me seek for new adventures.
With a German mum, and Scottish dad, home as always been a mix of cultures and languages which has boosted my interest for meeting new people and learning from their customs, values, traditions and their passions.
I just finished High school in Geneva and strated a gap year in which i'd love to fulfil an already long lasting dream, travel and discover South America ( Argentina and Chile in particular).
The mix of culture, mountains, food, animals, people and language makes me want learn more about it :))

More details about your skills

I love looking after/ taking care of children and animals, I easily fit in to different situations and love to have a laugh.

I am a ski instructor in the winter so I am use to taking care of groups and being creative when it comes to vary activities and do sports.
I take pleasure in working outside, building things, paint, decorating and farm work.
Last summer I volunteered at a sea turtle rescue in Costa Rica, which opened my eyes to different aspects of life, and gave me more experience in diy tasks.
I've worked in a restaurant and in events for 3 months, had jobs in my home village which included gardening and various tasks of general maintenance.
Often people think I'm older, as I learnt to be responsible and independent at a young age. If you are looking for a easygoing girl, able to help you with any kid of work, and who is always looking to learn languages and have deep conversations, I might be a good fit for you and your team/family.
