My first 2 weeks in Ras Al Khaimah


Hi everyone, 
This is my second photo blog, but unfortunately, I am not able to put them all in as pretty as I want it to be... I hope it does give you an an image of where I am and how my life looks. 

 Let me first show you all my house. I live in a villa with 5 German girls and one from Zimbabwe. It is quite alright; we share the kitchen and laundry room, but we have shared rooms for 2, and I share the bathroom with 2 others.
This is our terrace. Not able to use it now due to the extreme heat, but I hope we will, eventually!
This is the back side of the house. 
The surroundings look like this; sand and far away you might see the mountains. 


My first room





 

Aaaand, my second and current bedroom













The DoubleTree 
Now, let me show you my work space. I work in 2 different hotels; Hilton city and the resort. 



This is my office in the Hilton city. The girl is my fasting colleague, who is our trainee. 



This is the computer room, where online training courses are done. 

This is the Training room; for... TRAINING!
Because we can.. a work selfie.. so you all know how I look at work. 


And finaly, the place where I work in the resort. 


 Now, off to the fun part: DUBAI!!!




 And that was it for now... I hope I will eventually find a better way to post these pictures in order to mke them look pretty... But if I can't, I'll have to just start posting them on FB.
Byeee

My last week in the Netherlands!

 As promised, besides my Dutch blog, also a Photo-blog! These pictures are from my week before departure to Ras Al Khaimah!




The table with bites for during the match NL-MEX, which was scheduled during my bye-bye-party. I really enjoyed having everyone there!!












Bye-bye dinner with a few of the PIR colleagues!











Picknick on Museumplein in Amsterdam with Chantal, my fried from my first internship on Santorini! Really great deal at Bagels and Beans; 10 euros per person for a bagel, a juice, an apple muffin and coffee/tea! And it tasted great too!








BBQ with Floridus Aurum, and another opportunity to see Aleid! I got a great book with pictures and sweet messages from all the girls, and I brought it along!!








Last weekend with Vin! Dinner at Wakker in Eemnes and Football in de Oude Tak in Blaricum!! I will miss this guy most of all I think ;)



















Besides Vincent, these lovely girls (and Marthe) came to say goodbye on the airport. Thank you all so much for being there!!!









 There I went! Off to Dubai and then to final destination; Ras Al Khaimah!





My very first meal at work... Rice, chicken and spicy vegetables. I hope that I will get used to the spiciness soon, because this was a bit too much for me at the moment..

I've got my final internship!

As per 9 July 2014, so in 1.5 month, I will start with my final management internship in Ras Al Khaimah, in the United Arab Emirates. I will be working in the Learning & Development department, and I believe I will learn a lot during my half a year there.
On this page, I will keep you updated with pictures, in addition to my Dutch travel blog.
