Nikita Dashchenko

"Chick from Overcross"

What am I doing here?

I am the all-rounder for everything related to social media, graphics, video, SEO, and our website – and of course for the boss's coffee. ;)

Qualification

I am currently in training at OVERCROSS. Thanks to my hobbies, I have already gained a lot of experience with graphics and video – which greatly benefits me in my work here.

My Background

I was born in Ukraine and graduated from music and school there. Right after my graduation, in the middle of the global lockdown, the war began. After a month of traveling through various countries in Europe, I finally landed in Germany. I have now been living and learning here for over three years. My German is quite good now – even though I still can't drink as much beer in one evening as an average German. :)

My three favorite countries

I have not traveled to many countries yet to name clear favorites. But my homeland will always be my heartland, no matter how many places I will discover.

From the good fairy I wish for…

I wish that no one else has to experience what war means.

Significant experiences in my life

When you travel from country to country for a month with two suitcases, your mother, and your dog – not knowing if you will find a home or safety anywhere – your perspective on the world changes. Perhaps we should offer such a tour as an adventure trip for the brave? What do you think?)

This adventure I want to experience in the next five years

I dream of traveling to Asia, especially Japan. But my biggest adventure would be a tour through my homeland as soon as it is safe there again. I want to visit the ghost town of Prypjat and explore the Carpathians.

If I am no longer allowed to travel…

Then I would simply take walks over Google Maps with my friends – which we already do regularly. So I am basically an experienced e-tourist. ;)

Hryhorii Sukhikh

What am I doing here?

I am an IT guy dealing with everything related to IT and SEO in our company.

Qualification (MANDATORY)

Studies: Degree in Computer Science from the Technical University of Košice (Slovakia).

Work: Extensive experience as a freelancer and working at the Israeli company Inango.

Previous experience

I have dedicated my entire conscious life to programming. Since my childhood, I have been writing code, teaching others how to write it, and trying to solve increasingly complex challenges and tasks.

My three favorite countries

Ukraine, Japan, Czech Republic

My wish to the good fairy...

Never lose my drive and myself.

Significant events in my life

It’s hard to say what has truly been significant. I would say something extraordinary and cool has happened over the last three years.

An adventure I want to experience in the next five years

In the next five years, I definitely want to visit Everest or at least its base camp. I don’t want to just be another Everest tourist; I want to experience and feel the life of the "mountain dwellers".

If I couldn't travel anymore

Then I would buy myself armor and a huge sword and participate in Buhurt battles. Would I do that even if I could travel? Definitely!

Fares Felhi

What am I doing here?

I am currently an intern in the IT team at Overcross, where I contribute to tasks in development and marketing.

Qualification

I am a student at the Esprit School of Engineering and am gradually developing my skills through my studies, academic projects, and initial professional experiences.

Experience

I had the opportunity to work on several projects at Esprit and complete internships at Tunisie Telecom and Ooredoo. These experiences have further strengthened my interest in the IT field.

About Me

I am passionate about computer science and artificial intelligence. I love creating new things, learning, and developing innovative projects. My goal is to build a successful career, constantly develop myself, and discover new cultures all over the world.

Maya Schiessler

What am I doing here?

I am currently still in training to become the EU tour manager for Overcross.

Qualification:

I grew up in the Canary Islands and learned early on how important it is for people to be well cared for on their vacations. As a young woman, I started a small village organic store with a friend and later launched a bakery. My strength is my excellent customer service, which qualifies me as a career changer at Overcross.

My Background:

Growing up on the Canary Island of Lanzarote, I love the quiet life here. Running the organic store and my little bakery with all the lovely customers was a beautiful experience.

Now that I have become a mom, I naturally also spend a lot of time with my son.

My 3 favorite countries:

Besides my island, I am most fascinated by Switzerland, France, and Holland. The nature in Northern Europe is fascinating and different from here in the south.

From the good fairy, I wish for…

Peace, health, and much love for all of us.

Decisive experiences in my life:

The birth of my child was the most important moment of my life so far. Such a small being, just in my belly and now already out in the world, is a miracle of nature.

This adventure I want to experience in the next five years:

Every day is an adventure, and often it’s the small things that bring you the greatest joy.

What would you do if traveling were no longer an option?

I would continue traveling in my imagination and virtually accompany people on their journeys.
