Thi, where do you come from?

I was born in Vietnam. I used
to live in Hanoi.
|
|
Interviewer:

You speak English very well.
Did you learn English at school?
|

Thi:
|
Yes, I did. I
also had English lessons after school.
|
|
Interviewer:
|
Aha. So, why did you leave
Vietnam?
|
|
Thi:
|
Well, after I finished high
school, I wanted to travel and see the world.
|
|
Interviewer:
|
Really?
|
|
Thi:
|
Yes. You see my cousin was
living in Thailand when I finished school. He was working in
a tourist information office. His boss needed another office
worker, so I went to Thailand. I worked there for 3 years.

Did you enjoy your job?

|
Interviewer:
|
What did you do in your job?
|
|
Thi:
|
First I worked in the office.
I met a lot of people from different countries. Then I was a
tour guide for 2 years. I took tourists into the jungle, to
the mountains, and on elephant rides too.

world, for one year. When I was travelling in France I met a
wonderful man.

Is this a love story?

Mm…well, yes. John is
from Sydney, Australia. So, I came here and we got married.
