  • Description

    Hey,
    my name is Pavlina but most of my English speaking friends call me "Pav."

    I am working as a Tour Guide - with a 9seat van I drive people between Prague - Munich, Salzburg, Vienna, Budapest, Berlin, Krakow, Bratislava and guide them on the way. It is super fun job - you travel and work at the same time.
    Now the January - March are very quiet months hence I am looking for some new adventure - ideally in Austrian mountains, because I really wanna learn German :)

    Last 3 winters I spent in Canada - in the middle of the mountains (1h drive to the nearest grocery shopping) and you know what - it was a paradise! I worked as a Nordic Ski Instructor and Snowshoe tour guide - guiding people in the middle of the night in Canadian wilderness was amazing! I worked for a small resort and got a chance to try a lot of different things - being a lifty, working in housekeeping when neede, etc - and yeah, I am a Master in shoveling :D

    What else do you need to know about me? Hmm...I have tons of energy. You will probably not see me sitting still and doing nothing. I love being outside in the nature, doing sport, talking to people, cooking/baking (oh, I really love baking), learning new languages, reading and definitely travelling.

    My biggest passion is sport (and travelling, of course). I wished I was a professional sportwoman.... but dunno which sport, preferably all .... or at least cross country skiing, skating, cycling, climbing, hiking (not sure there are the professional hikers), obstalce running and everything enough challenging.

    GUIDING
    This summer I worked as a tour guide, I had 2 types of tours.:
    1 - guiding people in the nature - I picked them at at the train station, then we went to the national park or mountains and I guided them there. We walked about 15km. Most of the clients were young (up to 40 years old) but I also had people that were over 75years old for this trips :) I did the tours in English and French.
    2 - driving people between big cities and guiding them on the way (Prague - Munich/Berlin/Vienna and Bratislava). We had 3-4 stops on the way (castles, nice historical cities or a beautiful piece of nature). The group were up to 8 people, all the tours were in English.

    VOLUNTEER AT SPORT EVENTS
    As said, my biggest passion is sport hence being a volunteer at any sport event is just a pleasure. I was volunteering at Obstacle Running Courses in Belgium (Strong Viking) and the Czech Republic (Gladiator Race - 4x and Spartan Race) and the tasks I was responsible for:
    - registrations
    - being at the obstacle and helping to overcome
    - kids race
    - cleaning up

    TEACHING
    When I was at university, I was volunteering in the largest international organization run by students AIESEC. We did international internships and were responsible for education of young people. We organized the conferences where we delivered training, workshops and seminars about different topics. This was very useful when I was in Myanmar where I worked on the Youth Empowerement Project. Together with another 9 volunteers, we prepared workshops about presentations skills, career planning and self-awarness to over 1000 university students. This was an amazing experience. I love teaching but do not like following rules and standards. I always try to be creative but effective as much as possible.
    My teaching experience
    -English teacher for the language agency in Kazakhstan for 3 months
    -Teaching Czech, French and English in the Primary School in Russia for 2 months
    -Teaching English via skype (using mindmaps) for 6 months
    - Language school Panda in Vietnam for 1 mont

    AGRICULTURE
    I grew up in the village so I am quite familiar with working in a farm. I did it as a summer job when I was a student. I know how to plant and harvest different kind of vegetable and fruits, take care of animals (rabbits, ducks, chicken, pigs , cows).... I mean I am not an expert but know the basics.

    I am not afraid of any job and I am more than intersted in learning something new.
