Bianca (bee_2016)
I am native German with English bilingual proficiency. Besides that, I also speak French, Spanish and Japanese. I grew up in Germany where I studied and started working. However I always have been interested in foreign countries and cultures, so that I used any upcoming opportunity for getting abroad for a while, be it exchange programs, internships or just vacations. Japan is my home base now since more than 7 years and I still feel there is so much to discover here, plus there are so many other fascinating countries around. In my free time I often cycle through my neighborhood and areas nearby, trying to find hidden spots. I also like taking pictures, so I often have my camera with me, trying to capture nice people or nature shots.
When it comes to work. I am a very dedicated person and work very structured and efficient. I never missed any deadline and always deliver high quality work.
Availability: I am usually available short-noticed and can do urgent requests. There are no fixed times or days - I use to adjust my schedule and make room depending on the workload.
