NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Michael Takes Us to The Roads Less Travelled in South Africa
Michael Tiltmann – our tenth Cultural Traveller – is an Account Manager at NetRefer. Michael, who’s South African, hails from East London. Michael moved to Malta after landing his current job with NetRefer. He enjoys the relaxed lifestyle and climate here in Malta, but when we asked him to open up on his native land, he had a lot of fun stories and interesting travel tidbits to share.
NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Jon & Erik Take Us to the Roads Less Travelled in Ontario, Canada
Jon and Erik Backman have teamed up for our ninth edition of the Cultural Traveller. The brothers are NetRefer veterans. Jon is the Videographer in the Marketing Department, while Erik is a member on the Solutions Consultant Team (even though he’s a very familiar face in Marketing as well). The two hail from Ontario, Canada, but they have Maltese roots as well. Now, they are back on the island to reacquaint themselves with these roots. And today, they’ve sat down with us and brought with them their fun-loving attitudes and humour to take us on a tour of Ontario, Canada.
NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Amélie Takes Us to the Roads Less Travelled of Brittany, France
Amelie Rigaud – our eighth Cultural Traveller – is the Front Office Assistant in the Facilities Management Department at NetRefer. Amelie, who’s French, hails from the region of Brittany. After moving to Malta to study English, she felt an affinity with the place and decided to call it her new home. However, when you bring up the topic of her hometown – especially the food and drinks – Amelie lights up. And today, she joined us to take us on a mental tour of Brittany and share with us all that which makes this northwest peninsula so special.
NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Adrian Takes Us to Japan’s Roads Less Travelled
Adrian Farrugia – our seventh Cultural Traveller – is the Content Writer in the Marketing Department at NetRefer. Adrian, who’s Maltese, spent almost eight years living in Japan, most of which were spent in the Kansai (West) Region. This was not his first time living away from home: he spent most of his childhood living in The States with his family, but it was his first time moving abroad alone. Having eclectic tastes and interests gave him a broad perspective and an appreciation of a wide range of aspects of Japanese culture. And today, he sat down with us to share some of the highlights of his travels in his favourite region of Japan – the Kansai Region.
NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Tita Takes Us to Romania’s Roads Less Travelled
Vasilica “Tita” Simion – our sixth Cultural Traveller – is an Account Manager at NetRefer. This city girl from the Romanian capital of Bucharest moved to Malta in 2019, with quite a few years in between spent living in Milan. A fun fact about Tita, as her teammates refer to her, is that she’s a competing marathon runner. This is probably why she’s so full of energy and zest, and this transpired clearly as she sat down with us and took us through some of the most beautiful locations and aspects of her native country – Romania.
NetRefer’s Cultural Traveller – Anshuman Takes Us to India’s Roads Less Travelled
Anshuman Ganesh Iyer – our fifth Cultural Traveller – is a Solution Consultant at NetRefer, originally from Jamshedpur – home to Tata and one of the largest steel industries. Anshuman left his country three years ago to move to Malta. While he’s very well-travelled, this is the first time he’s living away from home. As he reminisced about India, not only did his friendliness and warmth shine through, but also his passion for and knowledge about his native culture.
