Hi Josefin!
Can you tell us a little about yourself and your background?
Since I can remember, I have been a shy and introverted person who feels secure in structure and regularity. However, I have always been very independent and, as an early teenager, started helping at my parents' then golf restaurant and thus got into the restaurant and the service industry (where you constantly talk, serve and are surrounded by people, help!).
We fast forward for a few years, I am a new 22-year-old and have just set out alone on my life's journey as a flight attendant in Dubai. For just over three years I found new friends for life, my current partner and got to experience places that many only dream of seeing. I got to jump bungy jump in New Zealand, swim with sharks in South Africa and walk along the Chinese wall in China, you can say that I became a bit of an adventurer.
In the spring of 2018, I decided to move home to Sweden, I got a job as a check -in staff at Kastrup and hotel receptionist in Malmö and decided to start studying e -commerce at the same time - why only do one thing at a time?.
A few years later I was newly graduated and was ready for something new, where came Reunion into the picture and the rest is history.
What does a typical working day look like?
We usually start with a hot coffee and look over yesterday's results, then we run a small summation of what needs to be done during the day and then it is full speed.
No day is the same, but in general I make sure that all our websites are updated with current campaign, pictures and products. I also make sure that our Instagram, Facebook and our ads are kept up to date.
It is usually a high tempo and many new ideas that bubble in the office.
What do you like most about your job?
My colleagues! But also that my work is challenged and that I get to be creative and think outside the box in our projects.
It is important to constantly think a step further and come up with new ways to optimize everything we do.
How do you describe the company's culture and work environment?
It is a warm and family feeling with us and we work intensively together and help and support each other. There are usually quick turns with us and then it is important to just keep up, we have a different way to work compared to many other companies.
But we probably also have much more fun than many other companies.
Something that is extremely grateful is the opportunity to have our dogs in the office, my little Kiwi has basically grown up here and is so good.
What are your interests outside of work?
Unfortunately, I am not as adventurous anymore but I love to travel and explore new places. For a year now, my little Kiwi has been one of my greatest interests, it is so wonderful to go out to the forest, the beach or an open field and see him live his best life.
As a relaxation, I like to cuddle in a blanket on the couch with a good series or movie and I also like to put puzzle, it's like therapy for the soul.
What is your favorite food?
Tacos! But I also really like seafood and fish, moules fries, tapas, a really good burger, Indian paneer in tikka masala sauce, all with mushrooms - preferably chanterelles, meatballs with accessories, pasta in all its shapes, etc. I simply love food!
What is the most memorable thing you have experienced in life?
On the whole, it must be about 8 years ago when I got the chance to move to Dubai and work as a flight attendant and see the world. Once there I got to experience so much that it is difficult to just choose one thing. But to see the northern lights from above in the sky, cuddle with koalas, ride on a horse on Safari in Zimbabwe, look at the view from the top of Burj Khalifa, take a little hike up for Table Mountain in Cape Town is just one of what I bring with me for life.
You could say that much of what is on many people's bucket lists I have been given the chance to do and I am eternally grateful for it.
