Hi team,
My name is Rommy and I am very excited to be applying for a position for the months of January and February. It has been a dream of mine to learn how to ski, and what better place to do that than in Austria! My family has lineage in Austria and I have always wanted to immerse myself in Austrian culture as a result.
I have plenty of experience in bartending, reception in a hotel, childminding, and customer service. If I can be of service during January and February 2024, I would love to hear about it as soon as possible so I can acquire a work visa.
Thank you kindly,
Rommy
