After months and months of waiting, planing and lots of interviews I'm finally moving to Banff, Alberta next week! I am going to be working at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel!
Since my stories are probably going to be too long to post on facebook (and nobody likes long posts), I have decided to make this blog so I can share my experiences.
I will be staying in the Banff Springs staff housing, which means I will have roommates. I have been told that the housing is set up in a dorm room style with 3 sleeping areas, a kitchen, a small living room (which is probably just a small gap between the sleeping areas and the kitchen) and a bathroom. The kitchens are equipped with an oven and a fridge but do not include a microwave.
I have sent 2 boxes to the staff housing prior to my arrival with things that I didn't want to put in my suit case. A small pot, small frying pan, cutlery, some more kitchen stuff, bedding, pillow, towels and some clothes. (space bags were a HUGE help when trying to put all that stuff into boxes).
