Preferred location

France, preferable, to improve my french. However, anywhere in Europe is something I would be willing to consider.

Skills

My first language is English. I also speak Chinese and I study french at the A2 level at SciencesPo. However, I've been studying french intermittently for the past 2 years, even tho I've never taken the DELF.
In Singapore, my formal work experiences include being an intern for the ministry of communications as well as for the ministry of foreign affairs. I've also been a temporary stuff at the attorney-general's chambers. All my previous jobs were media and communications related, of course with the foreign affairs department being focused on diplomatic relations. Other that that, more informal work I've taken up include tutoring (English and literature), as well as free lance journalism!
I am an independent traveller, even though I may be only 21. I am able to cook, clean, drive (3A license) and I'm not afraid to get to know people and converse with them regardless of our language barriers. This time, I'm interested in finding a working-holiday opportunity between May- June before the start of my summer sch! And since I love being in France, I would sincerely appreciate if I could stay at a French home and experience something other than my CROUS residence living .
I believe you'd be able to find in my skills the help you need to take care of your home/ help out with teaching! Thank you.

Additional info

I am not a smoker, I have a drivers license, I am not a vegetarian and I have no allergies.
