Tenía un buen experiencia en el hostel, nosotros fuimos como una familia! Me parecía tan bueno que me extendé mi estadía. El trabajo fue simple y organizado. En los días libre podemos ir al otro hostel en la valle. Muchas gracias para todo! Una buena onda! I had a lovely time at el hostel, the team became like a family to me! I had such a great time that I extended my stay! The tasks were simple and organised. On our days off we were able to go to the sister hostel in The Valley. Thanks for everything!

About me as an author

Hey fellow world wanderers! I am Jean, an Aussie who spent most of last year backpacking around South America. I LOVED my trip and Worldpackers was a large part of why I had such a fantastic time. I was able to feel at home in new cities, have new and fun experiences and meet a bunch of wonderful people, all while improving my Spanish. I look forward to sharing what I learned and gained from my Worldpackers experience, and hopefully help you to make the most of yours!

Background

Education

I have just completed the requirements to become a lawyer in Queensland, Australia, including studying at the University of Queensland. I also studied Spanish and International Relations at the University of Queensland. So I am very much interested in practising and bettering my Spanish language skills.

Work experience

During school and early university I worked in retail, and thrived in the busy, fast paced environment. I enjoy working with people, and my work experience in law reflects this, as I have worked closely with people centred law, and from an international perspective.

Travel experience

I love travelling, and the adventures and opportunities it brings. My most recent trip was a solo adventure through South America, to explore the region and practice my Spanish language skills.
