Ella Damon off to Japan

Ella always planned to have a gap year when she completed Don College. “When I first travelled on a Japanese school trip back in 2016, I knew that I wanted to spend my gap year exploring the beauty of Japan.”
“Over a year ago, at Don, I learnt about an Australian recruitment agency, Boobooski, which offered young people ski resort jobs within Japan.“
Ella grabbed the opportunity to complete a few applications and interviews in Japanese and has been accepted for the 2020 winter ski season. Fast forward to now, Ella has completed year 12 and leaves for the powdery slopes of Niigata, Japan in early December.
Here is some advice from Ella:
”To any year 12 Japanese students, or even those who don’t know any Japanese yet, I highly recommend looking into the 2021 Japan ski season. I can’t wait to see what Japan has in store for me!”
We all wish Ella a safe and fun time on the slopes in Japan. We know her language skills and cultural awareness will continue to grow.
