Guided Consultations for Global Experience
(derived from my own experience)
epicurean global experience - food, wine! Knowledge of world travelling sights & currency affairs. Currency knowledge used for the better use of the dollars when travelling abroad. Working where the dollar is weak for a better return of my money ~ Once exchange rate is established & currency is back to US dollars.
If working abroad is desired there are very reputable agencies with lucrative positions. one can be of great service without having to be a butler. London, Belgium, Munich, New York are some of the cities where such agencies are found. If being a butler is your desire there are many schools guided & even Taught by such agencies. I can also guide you to the agency most suitable to your traveling region or to the school connected to such agencies.
Monaco & Gibraltar are some of the other choices for safely working abroad.
The creme of the creme sought:
traveling security personnel - bodyguards - fitness trainers - Chefs
personal assistants - language translators - computer experts
matured & experienced traveling nannies - executive housekeepers
Connoisseurs (antiques & fine art) - personal shoppers (fashion advisers)
holistic consultants - traveling nurses - Caregiver-companions
.
Volunteer Work Abroad:
There are many opportunities to experience the world in ways that can serve those in need.
If you wished to take this route I can help you align with specific sources that can help you connect with people or organizations that serve the poor or elderly in need.
There are many elders that are destitute or simply abandoned by their family unit. If Spain is your region of choice I can help you more freely. There are nuns that take care of these elders. Some i have known since I was a child. Others I have volunteered myself.
if you wished to donate instead you can do so directly. Just google 'Las hermanas de los anzianos desamparados, Spain'. Choose the region of your choice & speak to the mother in charge.
~May god bless your every step~
~ Happiness is a good choice ~
