Description

My name is Ciao-Yan (Alice), a Taiwanese cabin crew member who holds a valid work permit, an international driver’s license (I don't have a vehicle), and my own medical coverage.
Currently, I’m helping at a guest ranch B&B in Hinton near Jasper, and I’ll be free from late October (Flexible). Looking for an opportunity to make some connections with the West Coast of Canada.

I can speak Mandarin (Native), English and Japanese, and have three years of retail& customer service experience. I’m tidy, outgoing, responsible and detail-oriented—I don’t have bad habits, and will care for your place as if it were my own.
I love solo travelling, meeting new friends, walking in nature and taking photos with my film camera.
