My first move..

Hello fellow bloggers.
My name is Moira and I'm currently a student at Sondela academy in Warmbaths. To be truely honest I was totally terrified when I came here! I have never moved in my life..Yes, yes I know I'm one of the lucky ones that can say that, which made it so much harder to move to Warmbaths to study. Although sad about not seeing my family as much, I was so psyced to meet my fellow students and to learn more about the working environment hands on! My expectations were that we would learn things at Sondela that we wouldn't learn at university, and as usual..I was so right! I love the overall setting of the lodge, the goats on the way home everyday wanting a marula, the fantastic food and just the setup of the place gives you a calming feel of relaxation.

We are currently busy with the WOP course where we learn to communicate with our colligues, how to treat guests, SMILING when giving a presentation, how to work in teams for succes, how to use the different personalities in the group, first aid level one and fire fighting. After our three weeks of WOP we will be starting with the hard work and study in our different directions.




A lot of friends made..Although we still struggle to get to know each others names! Thus far I am very happy to be here and I thank my dear parents for helping me to persue my dreams.. Thanx Mom and Dad!
