So, who are the course tutors at Fresh Tracks?
Steve
Becky
Ben
Fresh Tracks was originally set up by Steve and Becky, who now run it every year with Ben. The three of us are all long-term chalet hosts, and we really enjoy having the opportunity to bring our experience, knowledge and skills together, to help others to get involved in the lifestyle that we love!
Between us, we have worked as chalet host couples, ran chalets on our own, flexi-hosted, and all been guests in chalets! There's no-one better placed to be course tutors, here at Fresh Tracks.
Steve & Becky
Ever since our first working season in 2009, we fell in love with chalet hosting and decided to make it our full-time career. We feel really privileged to have discovered the seasonal lifestyle and we wanted to bring all our experiences, knowledge, and skills together to help others to excel at chalet hosting, and so we started Fresh Tracks in 2017.
Over the years we've had a range of experience, from working in commercial kitchens to smaller homely chalets, from catering in luxury villas to private parties in customers’ own homes, as well as supporting companies with staff recruitment and retention.
Prior to Fresh Tracks, we took the first steps to becoming self-employed, and launched our own mobile wood-fired pizza business in 2015. Based in Cornwall for the summers, we established a daily rotation at campsites and local villages, cooking up to 200 pizzas a night.
We relish the unique challenges of seasonal work and appreciate the opportunity to meet many different people. Our passion for producing great meals, and satisfaction from hosting our guests with a quiet professionalism, continues with Fresh Tracks.
““Steve and Becky are the complete package. They offer the warmest of welcomes and the tastiest of treats. They are a step ahead when it comes to preparation, attention to detail and making sure the guest/customer comes first. Quite simply, they are the best hosts I’ve had the pleasure to work with!” ”
Ben
We met Ben in the Dolomite’s in 2013, it was Ben’s first season and he was part of our team in a large chalet. We have done many seasons together since then and remain close friends.
For those of you looking to apply to work as single chalet hosts, Ben has a wealth of experience. From running his own chalets to working in summer chalets, resort driving and maintenance as well as working and cooking in professional kitchens.
