FROM THE WESTIN GURGAON,NEW DELHI

TALENTED TENZIN




The European guest will be visiting Gurgaon twice/thrice annually; every time, he will ensure that he uses the services of Tenzin; Thai massage for two hours. Yet another NRI guest who runs a factory in Jaipur, will be in Gurgaon once in three months. This business traveller always opts for Swedish massage replete with strong pressure. And, the therapist he chooses will be Tenzin.

I myself have experienced the skills of Tenzin last year, when I have been staying in Westin Gurgaon, New Delhi. He is very focused at his work. Talented worker.T hese are the qualities I like in him.

Meet Tenzin, the Senior Spa Therapist, at Westin Gurgaon, New Delhi. This Tibetan boy had joined Westin Gurgaon, New Delhi  in   June 2011. Got promoted as Senior Therapist last year. Started his journey as a therapist, in Hyatt Regency, New Delhi, as a trainee; learnt more on reflexology and Swedish massage from Dr Colin Hall, UK based medical doctor, when he was in Ananda in the Himalayas. Started teaching the basics on massage to junior therapists when he was in Leela Kempinski, Gurgaon.

“I would love to help others. Be a giver, and you will be happy in life" says Tenzin (30), "I do really work hard with my heart and soul. I don't run after anything".

                      


"My Manager, Jagpreet Kaur is very kind and caring. As per my request, she has given me 3PM to 12pm shift. I would love  to work in the evenings. In case, the guest needs my services in the morning hours, I shall be there".

"Sleeping is the best meditation. I do sleep for 7 to 8 hours" says Tenzin who structures his time on weekly off days to play basketball at the Siri Fort Sports Club.

"My dad passed away when I was just five years. He was working with Indo Tibetan border police".

His mom is into sweater-shawl business; has a small shop in Bikaner. Elder brother is an Artist living in Dehradun, elder sister, a Nurse by profession, is living in France, married and blessed with a son. Younger sister lives in Dehradun, married and blessed with three children.

What are the things you like most in Westin Gurgaon, New Delhi? I asked.

"The Ambience of our SPA is amazing; co-workers are so friendly; working environment is excellent" opines this Dehradun born Buddhist boy.
