Hi, my name is Winnie. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Tourism Industry. I have been working here for 12 years. My role is as a secretary—booking and contacting all the relevant places, coordinating, preparing everything, and ensuring everything is ready for each school. I love my job because it is very challenging, and I feel happy when everything goes smoothly.

I have experience in Outdoor Education since I started working here. I love traveling and meeting new people in different places. I also had the opportunity to live in America for five years, which was a great learning experience.

I am always ready to learn new things every day.
I’m glad to see everyone happy after the trip is over.
