USA trip 2016 Hello! My name in Maya. This year I took part in exchange program for students Work and travel. I spent three months in USA.
n I worked in Maryland in suburbs of Baltimore. Maryland is a small state that is close to New York City. The road from Baltimore to NYC takes 3, 5 hours by bus.
n I was a lifeguard in a swimming pool.
I was looking after people, that came to the pool, and watched, how they follow the rules, checked pool passes. I also cleaned the pool and checked chemicals. I was not the only one lifeguard in the pool, a primary lifeguard was a girl from America. Sometimes I worked alone in small pools for one lifeguard. It was easier, because that pools were not so crowded. n There are I and my friend have a rest after a last day of work.
n On days off I and my friend visited NYC or Washington DC.
