Why she loves working in tourism



I love working in tourism because it is interesting, fun, and useful. First, I meet tourists from many countries. I learn about their languages, food, and culture. I hear interesting stories and make new friends. I enjoy talking to people and sharing experiences.

Second, I like sharing my culture. I show visitors my city, village, and countryside. I explain our festivals, temples, markets, handicrafts, and traditional clothes. I teach tourists how people live in my country. I feel proud when they enjoy and understand our culture.

Working in tourism is always exciting. Every day is different. Sometimes I guide tourists in nature, sometimes in the city. I see beautiful landscapes, historic sites, and monuments. I also join festivals and events.

I enjoy helping others. I show tourists the best places, answer questions, and solve problems. It makes me happy when they leave with good memories.

I also learn and grow. I improve my English, communication, and confidence. I become independent and organized.

Tourism helps my community too. It brings money to local people, farmers, and shops. I feel proud to support my village and country.

Finally, tourism is fun and gives me satisfaction. I enjoy new experiences, meet people, and sometimes travel. It is a job that teaches me many things and makes me happy every day.
