On day one of my work placement, I was a little bit nervous as I wasn't too sure of what to expect. As the hours past by I felt more comfortable as my manager and work colleagues were very friendly towards me. Day one at the CIT SUR tourist information office I greeted customers and helped each one of them with any quires they may have had to my best ability.
Since I have started my work placement my Spanish has improved dramatically as my manager is teaching me a lot. Luckily, I get to meet and greet customers of all different cultures such as English, German, Spanish, French etc. on a daily basis. I am very good at speaking German as I studied it for several years so it really came into practice when speaking to German customers and it also put their minds at ease as they were more comfortable with speaking their own language. On my way back from day one in my workplace, I took a stroll around the area I am staying in and took numerous pictures of the scenery as shown. I was amazed by how different the night life and culture is here compare to Ireland. -Aoife-
