I'm Elleke, 29 years old and I've freshly arrived in Lausanne. I'm determined to learn French as fast as possible, so I'd love to meet Francophones who are willing to speak French (I'm at B2-level now) with me, as an activity on itself or while doing other fun things like running, hiking, skiing or sharing a glass, I'm also very much up to all these things with non-Francophones, of course :)

I'd love to find a running mate in Lausanne to go for a run once a week (8-10 k), also in winter.

Last thing:
Next to searching for a challenging position in an innovative company, I'm setting up a blog on job-hunting.  I'd like to share inspiring success stories of people who had a hard time finding a job (abroad or in their own country) and who succeeded by being creative and dedicated. My target audience are those in the middle of finding work and looking for uplifting narratives of others and non-conventional tips and tricks. I believe that people who had to be inventive in this process gathered a lot of knowledge on their way and I'd like to make this wisdom accessible to others.
Do you recognize yourself in the above and would you like to share your story? I’d love to interview you. If you know any others with interesting stories, I’m looking forward to hearing them.
