Jobs I Would Love to Have
Lulu loves strawberries, white wine and taking photos. She is currently attempting to maintain her sanity while planning a wedding and an international move.
I am not much of a career woman. I wish I was, but at 24 I am still without a "career"...I have had lots of mini careers (including events coordinator, writer for magazine, public servant & preschool teacher among others!) that have passed the time but I am still looking for the perfect career!!!

1. Translator- Despite the fact I speak two languages (oh how I wish it was more!) my written second language is crap. If it was better I could probably actually make money off of it. I am still working towards my next level of proficiency.
2. Photographer - No explanation necessary. I mean to get paid to take photos = awesomeness!
3. Bookstore owner- I have always wanted to work in a bookstore. But to own one would be so much better! Especially one with a cute, kitsch cafe attached! Not much need for an English bookstore where I am going though and what use would a bookstore with books I couldn`t read be?
4. Writer- My dream is to be a writer. Such a shame I am too lazy to edit my work or take the time to write more often. I do love it though so I do hope that one day the talent to do it will just come by and knock me on the head one day!
5. Stay at home mum- Some people (ie. career women!) would hate this but I like the idea. To supplement the fact that I stayed home with the kids I think running an Etsy business would be fun- just need to find a creative skill I have!
What careers have you had? What career do you want?
