Hi an welcome to my blog =)
Over here you can easily be up to date,
how I’m doing right now in the UK :)
This blog is managed in English, because I have many friends from the US, Canada and the UK, who also like to read all the daily stories about my big adventures …
I’m probably not the best English writer you know, but I’m working on it,
to get it to a professional level :)
So if you find any really hard mistake (could be a wrong use of tense or just a wrong spelling ;) please tell me as soon as possible … -> in that case just write me an e-Mail to sebisoft.at@gmail.com
- but how ever - I’m always happy about new e-Mails
- so please write me anyway ;P
To explain short, in which big adventure I’m right now:
Half year ago I started to search for a summer job, because I have to work a total of two month behalf of my school education.
To make my work more exciting I asked always for a nice job in any other European countries (except Germany, Italy and France), because I plant to connect my work experience with training my English in a professional way =)
So I requested few companies and also Brammer Austria, for which I once wrote their whole website - it’s only available in German, but you can take a look anyway: just click here ;)
Few months ago my Austrian boss Karl Mühlbauer told me, that he can maybe organise a nice job in the UK for me. That sounds more than good to me and so on I started to translate my resume into English to send it with an English written job application up to Great Brittan :P
During my spring break, when I stayed for an exchange student program with my school class in San Francisco, I got a first answer from John Cutts =)
- just take a look:

As soon as I returned safety from (the beautiful :) California, I took my phone and called John, to get more information about my work offer …
In the following weeks I worked out all the details - where will I stay, how do I come over there and what will I need for my journey ...
I soon decided that it will be the best way for me, to take my grandmothers old camper van to travel up over there - because then I will have the option to travel a bit around on my free weekends and see a bit more of the UK than only Manchester :)
I started to plan all these things and got in contact with Liz Latimer (very friendly person :) of Brammer UK Ltd., which helped me a lot to find a nice campsite over here.
This blog will start with the day, on which I started with the camper into the direction of Great Britain :)
Hope you will have much fun, with reading all my stories !
Kind Regards
SEBI
