This job is really challenging, not a single day resembles the others, and this is why it is very exciting. It gives you the opportunity to do things you would never do at home, visit countries you would never have thought about, tackle some aspects of the job that are totally unknown to you. You also get to meet and work with great people, within you team and on the field. Above all, it is a unique experience that is a valuable asset for your future”

It’s a ride, nothing more, nothing less. Hop on and enjoy …..walking around an agricultural show in Mombassa (Kenya) in fancy dressing (believe me, it’s an experience unlike any other)………watch leopards in the Masai Mara……..island hopping in the Caribbean……discuss with the prime-minister and the dance the Soca of the Trinidad Carnival……horseback riding in Kazakhstan, rafting in Kyrgyzstan……and negotiating -29 degrees on the Red Square in Moscow. Every WINNOIS has his or her own story. I cannot tell you what’s in store for you. Discover this for yourself, if you like to discover! "
