For most people, a job means they get up at 7:00 am and drive to work by 8:30 or 9:00 am. Later, they have lunch at noon, and then they start their work again at 1:00 pm. Finally, they finish their work at about 5:00 pm and then go home and have dinner with their families. That kind of job is okay for most people, but my job is so special and I love it! I’m a commercial airline pilot. That means I don’t drive to work, I fly! In fact, I fly to many different destinations in the world and I have friends in many countries. Usually, I fly between countries in Asia, North America and South America.

In fact, my favorite food is sushi. Another good friend of mine, Gustavo, lives in Brasilia. That’s the capital city of Brazil. Gustavo and I love to watch football matches together when I visit him.
Is my job perfect? No, it’s not. Because I fly across many different time zones. I sometimes go to bed at 2:00 am. At other times, I go to bed at 2:00 pm. That kind of schedule is not easy. In addition, my job often separates me from my wife and two children. We live in New York and often, I am many thousands of kilometers away. Sometimes, I miss them very much. However, I think I have an exciting job. And my kids think it’s great that I can say « Hello» in eighteen different languages: in Chinese, in Japanese, in German, etc…
