Parada Vimolmal

I joined Chimu in October 2022 as Project Coordinator - I’ve always been fascinated by Latin American culture and history, so when the role became available, I jumped at the chance! It’s incredible to work each day with passionate co-workers and amazing travel products. 

Before becoming part of the team, I worked for Virgin Airlines as GSA (Ground Service Agent) and later on as Ground Crew at The Perth International and Domestic Airport. Later I was approached by Fortescue Metal Group to help run their private airports on Cloudbreak and Solomon mine sites in Western Australia, and their charter flights for fly in fly out workers. My most recent role was working as an enrolled nurse at the Nykoping Hospital in Sweden at the Accident and Emergency department/Trauma Unit

I grew up in Sweden where we would do family road trips every summer. We would also fly to different European cities most winters. I have travelled by train and bus around Europe whilst at university and spent a gap year exploring Asia by land/air. Since moving to Australia, I’ve travelled to the Pacific Islands and also lived in NZ for a few years.

While I haven’t yet been to Latin America, I can’t wait to visit…especially Colombia for its spectacular scenery and Peru for the culinary delights, as I can never get enough of Costillas de cerdo a la BBQ and Aji de Gallina.
