Meu próximo destino:
New Zealand - desde Ago 2023 até Ago 2024 Ver tudo
Descrição
Dear hosts,
My name is June, an active, sporty and energetic Chinese from New Zealand. I have an in-depth understanding of Western and Eastern cultures, am thoughtful, respectful and considerate, and I get along with people from all walks of life. A capable, independent and self-possessed individual, I'm adventurous and flexible and I adapt to new environments easily. I am eager to learn new skills and concepts.
My professional background is in Sales & Marketing and in Education. Before leaving New Zealand I worked in a government-owned tertiary institute marketing New Zealand as the study destination to Chinese students. I have many years teaching experience as an assistant teacher and tutor of Mandarin Chinese for evening community education programmes.
10 years ago, while backpacking in Europe, I fell in love with this continent. Hearing languages that I don't understand fascinates me. Right now, I'm learning French, German and Italian passionately. I admire ancient historical buildings and value traditional lifestyles, techniques and wisdom; for example, the know-how to fully utilise available resources to recycle, reuse and reduce waste. I am curious and open-minded, and I am interested in different beliefs and outlooks on life.
During my travel & work, I have babysat in Finland, worked on a pemaculture farm in France, managed in a Bed and Breakfast in Switzerland, cared for elders in Scotland and Germany, and worked in a wide range of hospitality tasks in two retreats in Belgium.
I'm well organised, have a strong work ethic and I work on tasks efficiently and with dedication. You won't hear me complaining that the work is too much or too hard.
People like my cooking though I don't consider cooking is my forte. I can cook for non-picky eaters like me. I have a healthy lifestyle and appreciate everything homegrown and homemade.
I have good inter-personal skills, am friendly and polite. I prefer to listen than to talk. You can trust and count on me to provide valuable service in your home and business.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Greetings, June

June is a lovely person to have around. She reorganised our house in a great way by reducing clutter and creating space we didn't know we had. She was very kind and considerate in looking after my 94 year old mum and we loved having her in our house for over 5 months. She has a wide range of skills and was always willing, helpful and energetic.

Even though June's stay was short she was a pleasure to have in our home. She really helped organise my house, especially my cupboards and I was really appreciative of the same. My children were excited to meet her and she got on well with them. June was also very helpful with getting them ready for school in morning. We wish her all the best.

Thanks June for helping us out for 6 weeks. You were great! You helped the rooms and cleaning and organizing many of my cupboards. Thanks so much. You spiced up my boutique so my guests can see the products better. You also helped to make my Facebook page more alive.
Come back any time, we miss you too.
