Descrição

Hello! A little about me: I am an adventurous person and always willing to try new things. I am eager to experience different lifestyles, meet interesting people, and learn new skills. I am also quite introspective, and enjoy writing and reflecting on my experiences.

I graduated from university with a degree in Applied Linguistics and am now starting to build my life around travel. I have been gaining more experience teaching English, and would like to work as an instructional designer in the future helping create online resources for people interested in language learning.

Mais detalhes sobre meu interesse em idiomas
Hello, I am interested in practicing my Japanese, and start learning Hungarian. I am an intermediate Japanese speaker and lived in Japan for about 11 months. I have learned some very basic Hungarian, and would love to learn more, so anything you can teach me is awesome! I would love to help you with your English, or if you are also learning Japanese I'm happy to practice together as well!

Quais são suas habilidades?

I have a degree in Applied Linguistics; focusing on teaching English as a Foreign or Additional Language. I will also get my TESOL certification along with the degree which is in progress now. My first language is English, I know some Japanese, and very basic ASL and French.

I have experience in housekeeping; I worked as a seasonal housekeeper during university for four summers, and was a team lead (worked as one of the leads of a small group of workers and answered directly to the manager). I worked as a housekeeper in a wonderful retreat in Japan as well.

I am also decent writer, have experience in retail, and personal care.

I'm always willing to learn something new!

Algo mais...

Some hobbies outside of what I said already; I love board games, puzzles, and craft projects, and going for walks. I also enjoy partner dancing, yoga, and hiking. Outdoor activities are also something I enjoy; skiing, rock climbing, and camping. I also started to learn how to surf and am eager for the next opportunity! I completed the Ohenro pilgrimage, and have found a love for pilgrimages and long treks and plan to do more in the future.

Angela and Yasu are wonderful hosts, and Kisami is a great place to live. I was there for the quiet season and did housekeeping and other tasks. I had a lot of time to explore, learn to surf, and go on adventures with Yasu, Angela, and fellow workawayers.

For housekeeping, the procedures Angela trained me in are well-designed, and Yasu and … read more

Alice was exactly what we hoped for. During the quiet periods she was flexible and spent more time surfing, hiking, and exploring the area. When it was busy she was always ready and willing to help out with whatever jobs came up, some big, some small. With a little guidance she could do any task. She is also a lot stronger than she looks! Alice … read more

Megumi-san, Oyaji, and the kids are a wonderful family and I have had an unforgettable time with them. This is a great opportunity to immerse yourself in Japanese, and experience Japanese culture day to day. We had a lot of fun going on many day trips, having great conversations, and skiing as well!

Megumi-san has is very organized and clear … read more

日本人のホストの方に向けてなので日本語で記載します。
私たちは、アリスを約2ヶ月ホストする予定で今は彼女と1ヶ月ほど過ごしました。彼女はとても勤勉でどんなことにも一生懸命取り組みます。

彼女との生活をいくつか紹介します。

・我が家の掃除機にたくさん髪の毛が絡まり吸い込みが悪くなっているなーと日々思っていたらお願いをしていないのに彼女が綺麗にしてくれていました。

・日本語を毎日一生懸命勉強しています。その為彼女との会話を楽しんだり、その会話の中で日本語をを教えてあげる方はとっても相性がいいと思います。

・我が家では、簡単な家事や2歳と0歳のベビーシッターを依頼しましたが、アドバイスや依頼を嫌な顔ひとつせず、すべて一生懸命に取り組みました。子供たちには毎日英語で優しく接してくれました。

We are glad she had a great time and would … read more

I stayed for 4 months (September-December), and it was a wonderful experience!

I lived in my own apartment with roommates. There was lots of privacy and access to a bike. Gotemba was also great for exploring the surrounding areas, and you had lots of weekends to travel for overnight stays.

I had many opportunities to practice my Japanese, and … read more
