The promise of working abroad is a pull for most people,
especially those young enough to wear short shorts and not much else. Yet the
thought of the beach and the sunshine can often deter from the realities of
working abroad. Long shifts await those who wish to follow this career path,
but the rewards can often times be worth it.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I managed to contact my friend, currently out in <a href="https://vacationrentalsexperts.pennistonemedia.com/travel-spain-discover-charm/#Barcelona">Barcelona</a>
for the rundown on what it is like working as a Camp Courier for a Spanish
resort.

Days will start off reporting to reception at quarter to
nine in the morning, this easily means you can wake up at 8am. The heat will
often prevent you from wanting to put on any make-up girls, and staying on
resort means you’re relatively close to all facilities.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<b>Daily Life of a Hotel
Courier<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Now of course there are various types of <a href="https://www.sandals.com/about/">hotel representative available</a>, but
for the sake of this article, we’ll focus on just the role of a courier. The
chores following the check in at reception include preparing the accommodation
for customers, making sure all bookings are accounted for and tidying the rooms
in question.<br />
This could take anywhere from a few hours to all day – so it’s
best to be prepared for a potentially long shift.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Following this, you’ll have basic reception duties, showing
guests in and dealing with paperwork.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Some resorts will even require long night
shifts on bars etc so a lot of energy is necessary in this line of work.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
While interviewing my friend, the one prevailing tip she
could give me is to be fit and healthy before applying. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The resorts are often
huge and somewhat hilly – walking up and down and around these sites can be
exhausting, especially in 40 degree heat. Above all, patience with customers is
key, tensions can rise in situations and it goes without saying that making
sure customers are happy with their holiday is the number one priority.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

</center>
<br />
One day off a week is usually the norm for these resorts,
and it’s not just the local beach that deserves a look. The resorts are located
close to main cities and tourist destinations for obvious purposes, so planning
each day in advance can mean you make the most of your day off.<br />
<br />
Dithering about
deciding what to do wastes precious holiday hours! Thanks to the level of staff
needed during peak times, any time you go out to work there will be peak summer
times, so random events like random festivals and concerts will often be
occurring during your stay.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The contract can be cut short any time you wish to leave,
and usually last for any length of time over the summer. There are a tonne of
choices out there for you to choose from and the job is paid – so if you want
to truly work for a holiday out in a stunningly sunny country, have a look out
for next year’s vacancies!</div>
