hey guys just wanted to share with you my story with ace! i’ve always wanted to work abroad but i’m a bit of a worrier so i was scared to take the plunge until i found out about ace. i spoke to Fabio Delgado over messenger and he really helped reassure me so i signed up! i got talking to other people going through the facebook and whatsapp groups and a couple of weeks later i went to the leeds meet up which really settled my nerves as i got on so well with everyone and made so many like minded friends. i arrived in maga on april 2nd on the apartment package and i moved into a big apartment in piano bar with 6 other girls i knew from the chat and meet up. In the first week there were loads of events to help us meet new and old workers, along with recruitment days and ticket selling training. within the first week, i was offered a trial at JD sports lounge as bar staff. after my trial i knew i was going to love working there and i stayed the whole summer! my JD team really became my family over the course of the summer! during the first few months i also did ticket selling on the side for some extra pocket money. the training we received from David William Thompson and his team was AMAZING and boosted my confidence speaking to new people so much! over the summer, i saw Fabio and David most days around the resort and they were always checking that everything was okay and if i needed anything. on top of having the BEST summer of my life, i managed to save up enough money to be able to travel south east asia over the winter - i’m currently writing this from a paradise island called koh rong in cambodia where i’m doing a workaway thanks to contacts i made in maga! i’ve already travelled thailand, laos and vietnam too! i honestly could not recommend working away more - it has taught me sooo many things about myself, boosted my confidence and made me so much more independent. i made friends for life and i already can’t wait to get back in april to see them all and make so many more memories! if anyone has any questions feel free to message me and i’ll do my best to help! i’ve added a few pics from my summer and my fave places along my travels too - ROLL ON NEXT SUMMER !!!
