My guest today and I have never met, but we do have 46 mutual friends in the Club Med family. Her first season was in Club Med Turks and Caicos as a Scuba Instructor in April of 2014. From Quebec City, please help me welcome Jennifer “Jen” Keays! Jen was born in Quebec City, but moved to Whistler, B.C. when she was seventeen years old. Before Club Med, Jen attended Capilano University (CAPU) in Vancouver and obtained a degree in Tourism and Outdoor Recreation. Jen was actually on an internship at Club Med Turks & Caicos as part of her degree requirement! Jen also worked as a Financial Accountant for one year for Norwegian Cruise Line, but in her spare time on board the ship, would also dress up as “Dora the Explorer” to entertain the kids as breakfast time! Jen worked for Club Med from 2014 to 2020 and worked in not one but TWO different villages in China: Club Med Dong’ao and Club Med Guilin. Jen also worked in Club Med Cancun and she helped open Club Med Charlevoix (the first Club Med 4-season resort in Canada) in December 2021. There, she had two jobs at that resort: Boutique and Club Med Artist in Circus. Jen was working in Club Med Punta Cana in March of 2020 when Covid hit and she tells us what that experience was like. One of Jen’s many funny stories, this one involving culture shock and chicken soup, happened in Club Med Dong’ao, but I’ll let her fill you in on that one! Jen worked many jobs in her time at Club Med: Landsports, Fitness, Sailing, Circus, Chief of Sailing, Chief of Circus, Water Activities Manager, Guest Relations/Creactive and Boutique. Please enjoy this interview with a very special person! **My First Season podcast has always been free to listen to and is available on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora and Listen Notes.
