Saffron Knowles

First Season

Friendly and reliable, with a recent Business Management qualification from The Open University. I enjoy meeting new people, contributing to a team environment, and creating positive experiences for others.

Pavel Niculita

First Season

Experienced hospitality professional with a strong track record across bar, floor, and high‑volume service environments. I bring structure, speed, and calm under pressure, keeping both guests and the team running smoothly. Looking for a season where I can add real value, elevate service standards, and be the person the team can rely on when it gets busy.

Edson Jo

First Season

I am a really hands on person. I drive from motorbikes up to trucks. I was a professional swimmer. I worked at the bar and kitchen for many years. I can learn, anything.

I’m a fast, adaptable barista with solid experience working in high-pressure environments, especially festivals over the past few years. I’m confident handling long queues, staying consistent under pressure, and keeping service smooth even when things get hectic. Overall, I’m well suited to festival coffee work because I can balance speed with quality, adapt quickly to changing setups, and keep performance consistent in fast-moving, high-volume environments.

Hi! My name is Aiden, I'm a white water rafting guide and general outdoor enthusiast from BC, Canada! I'm looking for work in SE Asia/Australia/NZ for the 2026/27 season. I'm a BCROA certified raft guide, as well as a certified Wilderness First Responder (Red Cross). Open to gigs on or off the water, in a variety of different industries. Would love to chat! :)

Abigail Cochrane

First Season

I am a 20-year-old who is eager to work a season abroad to gain new experiences, develop practical skills, and immerse myself in a different culture. I am motivated by the opportunity to challenge myself, meet new people, and grow both personally and professionally while contributing positively to a team environment. I enjoy working with others, learning new skills, and adapting to new situations, and I believe seasonal work abroad is the perfect way to build independence and confidence.
