As I promised you in my previous article, today I will introduce you to some of the staff who work at Khaosan Sapporo Family Hostel! The staff here are very kind and helpful; we want to hear your stories, we want to help you to have good times in Sapporo, we want you to have good food in Sapporo, so come to the reception and talk to us!
Working in a place carrying the title of International Guesthouse, we have staff from many countries! As of now, we speak total of 8 languages; Japanese, English, Korean, Russian, Luxembourgish, French, Indonesian, and German! Here is the breakdown;
Sven Balthasar
He is the one, the man who contributes the most to the number of the languages spoken in this hostel. He alone, speaks Luxembourgish, French, Japanese, English, and German! He loves the sea (more than Romeo loves Juliet probably) he studied marine biology /tourism management and worked as a diving instructor in Australia before finally met the love of his life and moved to Sapporo, Japan.
Hobbies: Scuba diving, soccer, kite surfing, snowboarding.
The cooking master. Learned from the masters of cooking for years in the land of the Hobbits, he got the enlightenment in cooking that not many can achieve. He loves cooking (more than monkeys love bananas probably). He worked as a chef in several restaurants in New Zealand before finally met the love of his life and moved to Sapporo, Japan. Sounds familiar? Lol yes, the man of the sea and the man of the kitchen shared a similar fate in life. Oh, he is Korean but he can speak Japanese!
Hobbies: Cooking, snowboarding, watching Japanese drama.
Amane Naito
Handy man! He can do everything better beyond expectations due to his experience in surviving in wild desert in Australia with kangaroos and snakes for years, making him a tough can-do-anything man. Just kidding! It is in his nature that he does everything so well. Studied in Australia for years, he speaks perfect English (and Japanese of course) and has an open mind. Came back to Japan and worked in one of the hotels in the world famous ski resort of Niseko before finally met the love of his life in Sapporo, Hokkaido. Yes, the handy man too.
Hobbies: Skiing, snowboarding, swimming, sailing, hiking, and drinking.
That it’s for now, now you know a bit about some of the people who are ready to assist you in this hostel! I will write about the other staff in the next articles!
Over and out!
