Work Where Everyone Else Vacations

Imagine clocking in just steps from the sparkling shoreline of Lake Winnipesaukee. LocalTopia & The Wicked Loon is a lively dockside hospitality spot in the heart of Wolfeboro, New Hampshire – proudly known as “America’s Oldest Summer Resort.” We’re looking for friendly, energetic international students to join our Counter Help team for the Work & Travel USA season, from summer straight through the spectacular New England fall.

  • Taking orders at the counter and processing payments accurately on the POS system
  • Preparing and serving drinks, snacks, ice cream, and quick-service food items

Why Wolfeboro, New Hampshire?

Wolfeboro is the postcard-perfect American lake town: wooden docks, boat cruises, sandy beaches, ice cream shops, and friendly locals who love meeting international students. Spend your days off swimming, kayaking, hiking the White Mountains, or catching a summer festival downtown. Stay into September and October and you’ll witness the world-famous New England foliage – forests exploding in red, orange, and gold. Boston is only about two hours away for weekend adventures, with easy access to Portland, Maine, and the Atlantic coast.

What We Offer

  • $10.00 per hour with tips on top – your friendly service directly boosts your earnings
  • 40 guaranteed hours per week – a full paycheck and real savings for your travels
  • Season length from summer through fall, one of the longest and most rewarding placements available
  • Hands-on hospitality and customer service experience for your CV
  • Daily English practice with American guests and coworkers
  • A supportive, fun team and a management crew that has hosted international students before

What We’re Looking For

  • University students aged 18–25 with a valid J-1 Work & Travel USA visa
  • Conversational English and confidence talking with customers
  • A positive, can-do attitude and reliability – you show up on time, every time
  • Ability to stand for your shift and work at a quick pace during peak lake-season hours
  • Flexibility for weekends, holidays, and evening shifts
  • No previous experience required – we’ll train you from day one
