I've never had a summer job and I think I'm not going to have one next summer because during summer holidays I usually travel with my family.

I've never had a summer job, and I don't think I want one for this summer because I'm visiting South Korea with my family so I don't have any time.

I have a job as a Software Engineer, but sometimes I look for a summer job for fun. When I was 16, I worked on construction in the summer. It was so great and funned. So, I'd like to get a new summer job:)

I had an amazing summer job last summer at Aquaworld Budapest. I was a surf instructor. I had a very good salary. Three famous Hungarian surfers trained with me. Norbert Diós, László Magai and Fanni Pacsai. I am very good at surfing beacuse I lived in Hawaii for two years and I learned from the best there:)
