Working during holidays.
Holidays
are approaching. For many of us this is time for rest, relax, laziness, trips.
This is time when one can soak up the hot sand all day or go to the mountains.
However there are people who will work hard in the holidays. Let's take a look
for ways of working during holidays.

You can
also go abroad on your own. For example, a lot of students during the holidays
going with backpacks and tents to Norway. They knock on the door and ask if
they can help for example in painting the fence or mowing grass, in this way
they earn. It a good way to learn perseverance and responsibility. Moreover it
can be a great adventure which you will remember the rest of your life.
Many
students also take a course of tutor in a colony to be able to go with children
to summer camp. This is way not only to make money, but also to have fun and
see many interesting places. Of course, this involves some skills and a
necessity to complete the course.
A great
solution for the student can be also a paid internship or practice. It's not
only a good way to earn money but also to gain experience, knowledge, expertise
and familiarity in your future profession. In addition, it can pay off finding
a permanent job.
Of course
you can also stay in Poland. There are a lot of types of seasonal work. It can be a job in the wider catering
industry. During the holidays restaurants looking for waiters and waitresses to
their gardens. You can also find a job as a barman or kitchen help. Holiday
Resorts is always looking for people who will sell ice cream or waffles or will
deal with selling souvenirs from holidays.
Like as you
see there are a lot of chances of finding a job, it only takes desire.
Now,
questions for you :
- What are you going to do during holiday?
- Have you ever worked during holiday? What
was the job?
- What do you think about projects like The
Work & Travel?

In my opinion people should rest during holiday. I study a lot of during school term so I really need relax. For example during holidays we can visit new places. It will increase our knowledge and experience. The natural scenery of those places will give us joy. We can also pay visits to our friends and relatives during holiday. We must enjoy holidays fully. But we should not forget our books. If we do not touch our books, we shall forget everything. It will then be difficult for us to prepare our old lessons. Hence we should revise them during holidays. But we need not read much we may also read story books and books of travel. We shall find interest in them. They will increase our knowledge and at the same time give us pleasure and encourage us to travel.If we spend the vacation in this way, it will do good to our body and mind. It will restore our energies and fit us for work again. Thus after spending the cacation wisely we shall again be able to work hard with a cheerful mind.
ReplyDeleteI fell this year my holidays will be fantastic. I am going to Sant- Petersburg on a course of russsian launguage with my friends. I can not wait to see the white nights and spend time with my colleagues. Than I am going to Bieszczady with my boyfriend. In august I would like to go hitchhiking to France, but I afraid, that my parents won't let me to travel this kind of transport. It looks beautiful, but I don't know whense I will have money.. I have worked for 8 years. I live in a town, where there are a lot of gardens. Every year I break up fruits. It is a small work, but I am happy that I can spend my time usefully-outdoor, with my friends, without computer. And I think every young person should earn money during summer time. In my opinion teenagers learn how to sparingly spend money, how to be responibile and punctual.Than they respect thier savings. Of course everybody should rest, but work for two weeks in my opinion is very beneficial. I think that project like The Work & Travel it's a fantastic idea. You can learn and work in the same time. You can experience a fantastic adventure, meet new people, other coulture. Apart from that you learn how to solve problems without help of familly and friends.
ReplyDeleteI am going to the internship from my school to Lebanon for two months. I think it will be unusual and memorable trip. I am going to work there most of the time, but I hope to see so many interesting places.
ReplyDeleteI have work during my holiday for money. Last holiday I spent into my internship too. Maybe I can call it 'work', because I work there so hard, but for me it was something what I like to do and what I want to do in the future. It is some kind of hobby. It was an excavations.
I think that projects like The Work & Travel are a perfect idea for young people who want to see something. It has a lot of adventages like: meeting new people, learn something more, improve languages and earn some money.
I plan to go on holidays in few places. First I will go on summer camp with group of children. I'm a tutor there but it isn't a job it's volunteering. Aftre It I go to Norway for three weeks to work. I have already been there two years ago and I work there on the farm. This is only part of holidays when I plan to work. Then I go with my friend to Estonia by hitch-hiking. And I plan to finish my holidays in Maroco climbing in mountains.
ReplyDeleteIn previous year I was working in cafe in warsaw. It was nice expirience because have never tried it before to be waiter. I met there a lot of realy nice people.
The Work & Travel It's good Idea for spending time by holidays but If someone wants to earn real money should try find somthing other. Becase on "W&T" you earn firs some money to spend it after work. So you return to Polnd without the money.
I'm going to have an intership from half of june to half of august and then I'm want to go to Tatra for a 2-3 weeks. If I join the company in september,I'll ask about a possiblity of going abroad for 10 days including a weekend (it's connected with social media, so maybe I'd get an agreement), if my employer, do not want me there, I just will go for 2 weeks to onother country. I worked during holidays last year - 2 monthes in telemarkieting, it was terrible, exhausting or not well-paid. I think, that projects like The Work & Travel are great ideas for people, who want to an adventure, really need money and can stay long time without their family or friends.
ReplyDeleteNow, I am looking for internship and I hope so that during holiday I will stay at Warsaw and work in some company. However, it wouldn’t be my first working holiday. I am from small village and my parents have a lot strawberry and raspberry fields. Since I remember, I and my brother have helped with picking fruits. But I has never work for someone else and my summer job didn’t involve any payment so may by it wasn’t 100% work. Projects like The Work & Travel seem to be great. They are unrepeatable opportunity to get to know other country and culture without spending a fortune.
ReplyDeleteDuring holidays I'm going to find traineeship and maybe job. I have never been working so it's high time to find somthing and check out myself. I think that working during holidays is great idea, and I know lot of people who do it, but I've never tried. I think that programs like "work & travel" are great idea for people who are open to new places, new expirence and new friends. while this program you can learn usefull language and meet new culture.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to sweden visit my sister and her boyfriend for a couple of weeks and then we're going to Thiland togather for two weeks. Not shure when I come back. I'm going to write an artical about scientific image of the man during this time. I used to work as a gardener in the Netherlands, so I gainied work experience abroad.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what I'm going to do during the upcoming holiday but I'd like to find or start something important for the future rather than just earn money.
ReplyDeleteI've done some job during the schoolyear instead. I've had some holiday jobs in the past, mainly working in a cafe or being a social worker.
Now regarding The Work & Travel thing- I just agree with the words in the text. It's probably an opportunity to mix earning money whith travelling, though I wouldn't expect to save much money this way :)
I'm not sure what I'm going to do during this summer holiday. I'd like to find interesting internship,but it is hard to get a valuable job. I have never working during summer,because I have always lots of plans for my holidays and I didn't need to work.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, such projects as "travel & work" are really good opportunity to gain some money and also see some worth-seeing places. What is more important,we can gain experience,which is important for our future employers
It's difficult to say what I will be do during holiday. Of couse I will be help my parents and I think about find job on holiday. I have never worked before but it is good option for me because I need a lot of money to live in Warsaw during studying. Maybe I go abroad to my mother's friend and there I will find job which I would earn more money than in Poland.
ReplyDeleteIn July I am going to do a traineeship in ITME for three weeks. I hope I will learn many useful things that will help me in my future job. Although the company does not pay money for it, thanks to the European Union I can get a scholarship after finishing it. I will work there with my friends so I will have emotional support if something goes wrong (but I hope everything will be fine). I am looking forward to crush course in Japanese which I am going to take in July too. It is level B1, we will do a year of language course in one month! The meetings are six times a week, each 4 hours long. I signed up for it with some people from previous term's course so I believe we will have a great time together. As July is going to be very intensive and gruelling I haven't made any plans for August yet. I think that I will go on the seaside with my family and for a trip in the mountains with my friends. I do not make any plans for September too because I don't want to be disappointed if I happen to fail an exam and I have to change them.
ReplyDeleteI have worked during summer holidays only once. It was last year, my friend couldn't come to work for 2 or three weeks and I took her place for that time. I worked in bookstore, they needed help because during summer holidays they have more customers as people buy textbooks for their children. I liked the experience very much, if I had more time these holidays I would like to work in bookstore again.
I like the idea of projects like The Work & Travel. Unfortunately, most of them offer only three months long travels. I would prefer shorter ones because you never know if you pass all exams and have free September.
What are you going to do during holiday?
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I try to relax after the exam session, then I plan starting a apprenticeships connected with my field of study. Maybe, in August I could start some part time job to earn some money for September trip before the start of new year at university.
Have you ever worked during holiday? What was the job?
Yes two or free times I've worked during the holidays but these job was connected with my brother and father firm, so mainly I've worked in the office to help with make paper order and some office works.
What do you think about projects like The Work & Travel?
Yes, I think this could be an intersting way of spend time and earn money during holidays, because we can connect useful thing with pleasure.
I am going to work during this holiday. For me it is important to spent summer vacations in the way that make sense and not just waste time. Last year I worked as a volunteer in the orphanage in Mexico and that was a really important experience for me. I think that we can use our free time to help others or just to earn some money and it's better than just watching TV series for three months. I find projects like Work&Travel fantastic. You can work in the other country, learn a lenguage and later explore it. It's really cool.
ReplyDeleteHolidays is the only period of time during the whole year when I can have a rest. I work hard all the time, because I'm not only a student, so I really need to calm down a bit. And it's the last chance to have longer holidays than two weeks after starting full-time job. But general speaking, if you want to earn some money and if you find a satysfing job, then there's nothing wrong in working. And the option is to work and travel. Instead of what I have said before, I dream of going to the United States, so if somebody offered me such proposal, obviously I wouldn't say 'no'.
ReplyDelete2 years ago I was working during the holiday. That was cool. I will never forget this job. It was in the time of EURO 2012. I was taking care about greek football team. I met so many new peple. This year I also want to work on holiday but not in Poland. It will be great adventure. But I don't travel with program travel & work. It' s good idea but not for me I want to do wat I want. I also wane to finde a job by myself.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to work in law office where I'm working now, I'm studying law so this is connected with this.
ReplyDeleteLast holidays I worked in factory which produce car lights it was physical work I was editor. I think that work & travel projects are something great I would like to try something like this in the future. It could be very interesting experience.
I think that this summer holidays I will depart somwhere to repair the strenght for one more year of studies. But I also think that after return I will start looking for a holiday job. I was working last holidays in skateshop in Paris, and it was really great experience. In my opinion this projects Work&Travel are interesting option and you don't have to choose between going to work and spending nice holidays.
ReplyDeleteThis year I will go abroad, I have always wanted to visit Spain but I am scared of lack of language knowledge in this country. I heard about Work & Travel program and it is interesting solution for people who wanted to earn money and travel at the same time but for me better option would be Au Pair - babysitting and living with the family abroad because when I was in high school I used to be a babysitter for a couple of months.
