Let’s think global
IS RELOCATION A PROBLEM ?
LET´S THINK, WORK & LIVE GLOBALLY 🙂
I am bilingual from birth and have studied English since I was 8.
At school, I took on more languages.
Thanks to my parents I travelled in/out of my country and due to my linguistic studies I spent every year in a different country at UNI.
Life skills like packing all I need in a small space and in a short time and being creative when the bags get lost at airports proved an asset.
I have worked as a teacher/lecturer with students from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds (e.g. of Hospitality & Tourism or Business) and travelled again.
It led to carrier switch in travel management, tour ops, business trips, taylor-made & conference tourism.
Learned a lot about client service and the nuances of the business 🙂
When Covid hit the world — travel became restricted — thus I switched again.
Remote work for multinational corporates in teams of people from the whole world, interacting with them daily made me aware of different personal space, religion, access to problem solving or work pace…
After some time, we learned how to exist under special measures and travel again became an option — including several business trips I hade to make…
Flexibility, adaptability, clear communication, troubleshooting and Google planning became the key.
So I continued opening windows on the world…
With smartphones and wifi almost everywhere — GPS, booking portals, maps, opinion sharing on social media and photo/video presentations of venues — things got easier…however, we had to stay tunned and learn the know-how.
Technology and AI appeared in our lives…
And I switched again — to get a new perspective and a feeling of community with those who had to struggle — both among my people and beyond our borders…thanks to languages I speak.
My degree in psychology & theory of communication help to build bridges with refugees, people fighting natural disasters or wars.
Caritas, Red Cross, Muslims in Slovakia, Mareena — joined in need.
Photography and blogging from my trips helped to create materials for fundraisings, events and projects in my position of a Marketing & PR manager.
Plus I could go where I was needed — after his graduation, my son who BTW speaks languages and completed his studies in Scotland while travelling a lot too — found work & started life hundreds of kms from home.
By the end of 2024 I became free for a new challenge — at work & life.
IS RELOCATION A PROBLEM ???
LinkedIn offers remote work for international companies and also opportunities of on-site work…
I applied for several positions related to my experience and almost always had to answer the question above…
A firm “NO” was my answer in all cases — I would not apply otherwise!
To book a flight and accommodation at Airbnb takes an hour.
Pack a suitcase (washing = no problem) takes maybe two.
Arranging things at home max. 48 hrs
Get to the place of posting in 2/3 days — feasible!
