English Skills

Simon Zemp – 15 May 1989
My name is Simon, and I am from Switzerland. I finished school last summer. Afterwards I did my military service, which I finished in November. I’ve worked for different companies as a cleaner and as a data collector to save money for my Canada trip.
On January 10th I few to Vancouver where I was studying at an English School during the following nine weeks. I had several reasons to come to Chilcotin Holidays. Firstly I wanted to see an other side of Canada (wilderness after bustling city life), secondly I wanted to become a more well rounded person in life! And finally it is also a good opportunity to have a good an exciting time without spending a lot of money. In my spare time I had quite a lot of interesting things to do. First of all I learned to ride. I was a greenhorn at the beginning, so I am now almost a cowboy! Furthermore I learned to drive a skidder, snow mobile and I improved my modest cooking skills. And the whole time my English was getting better and better.
The relationship with the other staff was always good. I was helped when I needed something. The talks were always fun at the ranch
