Øvre Glomset – Norway
After recieving a warm welcoming bath of hugs from my dear friends in Austria, my time has come to move on. A new chapter in my life. A new adventure. A new destination. This time… a new job too!
During the last year, I was asked multiple times “When do you start making money again?” Of course a very legitimate question. But it did stress me out sometimes and created a certain pressure. While I was still relaxed about my money situation, carefully and on a low budget travelling, this earworm of “you need to make money”, kept crawling around in my brain.
Since I had been enjoying spring and summer all along, I felt like experiencing another, cooler season for a change. Seasonal jobs are relatively easy to find in Switzerland, Austria, parts of France and Italy, the Canary Islands, or one of the Scandinavian countries. I have always felt intrigued by those northern countries. Two years ago, visiting Frederique and Alan near Tromsø was a fantastic experience.
So, I focussed on finding a job in hospitality in Norway and Finland and got lucky. I was offered a job at an exceptional luxury hotel in western Norway!
Storfjord Hotel
The Storfjord Hotel in Skodje is a secluded luxury boutique hotel and alpine hideaway designed in the traditional Norwegian log cabin style called “lafta”. This luxury wilderness retreat is a proud member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux hotel collection and holds two Michelin keys. It was previously voted the #1 hotel in the Nordic countries by the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.
I am grateful to be a new staff member in the reception department, where I was welcomed by kind and friendly colleagues. I applied for the job, thinking I wou only do a winter season, but was offered a permanent contract. Of course, I will see how I go, since my body is still aching for more adventures and travelling abroad.
For now, my adventure starts here – in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by the majestic Sunnmøre Alps, and overlooking Glømsetvatnet. Nature is breathtaking!
…and that’s why I started an online Breathwork Instructor Course, yesterday too….
