About Alice Salazar:

Hi there!
Thank you for your interest in my profile. 

I'm a 31 years old girl from Costa Rica. I have 4 younger brothers and sisters. I come from a big hardworking family. I've never been married and don't have kids. I speak Spanish and good English, I can greet in French, Korean, Japanese and Chinese and i know the numbers from 1 to 99 in Chinese and Japanese. Lol!

I consider myself as a very calm, responsable and trustworthy person. I don't give up and always look for sollutions. I always try to set a good role model for my siblings. I love the nature of my country. I enjoy listening to music, read a book when its raining, fishing, painting, lettering, learn a new language and puzzles!

As for my experience, when I was 18-20 I used to house sit the houses of friends and family membersand took care of theirs pets as well when they went out on vacation. I have 7 years of experience as an occational truck and van driver for tourism and other projects.

I also worked for 6 years in Property Management and Vacation Rental company in my home town. I started in that company as a project assistant to the Designer and help with the remodeling of over 30 condos. Then I was moved to the Operations Manager possition and finally as General manager. We managed  all properties as AirBnb's SuperHost during 5 years until they were all sold.This is also the reason of why my contract was recently terminated. I learned so much about dealing with daily issues related to the condos's maintences, cleanings, staff, guests, budgets, etc... that now that I'm free to do new things  and with new expectations and goals in my live, I consider that I could very helpful with the care of your house. I want to meet new people and places, learn about diferent cultures. I am majoring in Business Administration and expecting to get my diplome by the end of this year. So, I'll be free for housesitting starting March 2024. Then I'll continue my classes online. As for work, I recently create my ecommerce company so I can keep doing it anywhere I am. 

For many years I thought that traveling the world was complicated and I was never going to be abe to make it. I locked myself in a box thinking I was save there. But I gave my heart and efforts to something thinking that I was valuable and turns out they didnt think the same way. I had to change my mind set and reconize how much value I have and I can still offer many great things to the world. 

Well, that's pretty much it for now. Please consider my application and you can be sure that your houses is in very good hands :D

I helped her managing the budget for remodeling, coordinating the purchase and shipping of materials, bedding, every kitchen item, and other amenities. Coordinating and overwatching the work of non English speaking screws and making sure they were following Laurie's instructions. She trusted me to be in charge of the work when she needed to flight back to the US. She became one of my mentors in live.
