With my passion for storytelling and my extensive experience in guiding, I am confident that I would be an asset to your team.
I was particularly impressed by Ubud Story Walks’ mission to provide travelers with an authentic and immersive experience of the city. Having traveled to many countries, I have always found that the best way to truly understand a place is through its people, stories, and traditions. This is why I am excited about the opportunity to be a part of a company that values the cultural exchange between travelers and locals. I believe that this is the key to creating meaningful and memorable experiences for guests.
What I find most appealing about this position is the opportunity to be a full-time guide.

This role at Ubud Story Walks is the perfect opportunity for me to do so. I am confident that my previous experience as a freelance guide, combined with my enthusiasm for learning and storytelling, makes me a suitable candidate for this position.

These experiences have allowed me to develop strong communication and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to adapt to different audiences. I am comfortable leading groups of all sizes and have received positive feedback from guests for my ability to engage and entertain them with my stories. I am also well-versed in the history and culture of Ubud, having studied it extensively during my time as a student of Tourism and Culture at the University of Indonesia.
In addition to my guiding experience, I also have a strong background in customer service. I have worked in the hospitality industry for over five years, where I have learned the importance of providing exceptional customer service and creating a positive experience for guests. I am confident that my customer service skills, combined with my guiding experience, make me an ideal candidate for this position.
Furthermore, I am fluent in English, both written and spoken, and have basic knowledge of Spanish and Mandarin. I am also proficient in using technology for guiding, such as GPS and audio systems, which will be beneficial for conducting tours with Ubud Story Walks. I am also a quick learner and am always eager to expand my knowledge and skills to enhance the guest experience.
Ubud Story Walks’ commitment to sustainability and responsible tourism is also something that resonates with me. As a responsible traveler, I am glad to see that your company prioritizes ethical practices and works towards preserving the environment and promoting local businesses. I am excited to be a part of a company that shares the same values as I do.
