W: And when did you begin this sort of work?
M: Let’s see now...um. Yes, six years ago this March.
W: And you enjoy it?
M: Oh yes, very much. It is very tiring with long hours on the job, sometimes...uh... as much as 12 hours. Well uh, but it’s exciting to meet people from all over the world. It really is.
W: What exactly do you do?
M: Well, I take tourists to the famous places in the city, tell them the history of the places, talk about why they’re famous. But, uh, there’s the other side.
W: What do you mean?
M: Well, you know, when foreigners come to this country, things are very different. So, it is my job to give them advice, help them with problems, and make them feel comfortable.
W: And what special qualifications are necessary for people who want to be in this profession?
M: Well, they have to enjoy meeting new people. And they must take special courses in the history of the city and things like that.
W: And do you have to know foreign languages?
M: Yes, that’s a must. Otherwise, a tour company can use you only for the groups that speak English. And most of the tourists come from South America.
W: South America. I see. So they speak Spanish?
M: That’s right, Spanish. And my company will hire only people who speak at least two foreign languages.
W: And you? How many languages do you speak?
M: Me? I speak three. Spanish, French, and Italian.
W: Three languages? Then I can see why your work is so easy for you.
