The Great Adventure

By Amy Bruigom

I was on the Workaway programme in 2014 and am now getting geared up for my second season in the sunny state of Florida.

Having this opportunity to travel and work in America for the second time around is one of the greatest adventures one could ask for. Getting the opportunity to meet loads of great people from all over the world, all with diversity in culture, race and religion and being a part of what is better known as the American Dream.

My first season I went on the programme as a hostess and I am now granted the opportunity to go over as a server, allowing me to experience two different fields within the country club sector and also helping me gain that international experience I wanted and needed from the beginning, to better myself in the Hospitality Industry. 

Now that I am in the final stage of my visa application, approvals and booking of flights, I find myself getting more and more excited. Purely for the fact that I know my next chapter in life is going to be filled with the excitement of hard work, new beginnings and great adventure.

For all those who are still to go over, brace yourselves for the greatest adventure yet and remember to make the most of every opportunity given to you.
