Taking a leap of faith!

15 years ago

Hi all,
I'm a hardworking, flexible and vibrant young french speaking Namibian female planning to come and live in Angola, Luanda. This idea eminated from an adveturous trip I took Last year in December. The aim of the trip was to see my birth place (Luanda) since I was born, and even despite my inability to speak proper Portuguese... I can say now since then I've been to Luanda three times!!! Other than a few bribes initially, I loved every bit of my stay! Now I've taken a bold step of resigning from my current work just so that I can work in Luanda.

I have a BSc degree in Marine Sciences (resource management) and I have also done an Honors at UCT (South Africa) in Environmental Management.

Right now I am looking for any constructive part-time/temp. work particularly anything related to the environmental management in the oil industry, or anything in the line of sustainable human development, until I get a fulltime job. I have a social business idea on which I am currently working on but I will need the help for starters, to help me meet my stipends and attend some portuguese classes too.

I am currently in Namibia and will be arriving to Luanda 27 June 2009. Any help or advice will be highly appreciated.

Thanx ;)
