Day 4 & 5 - 27/28 April 2016

28 april 2016 - Paphos, Cyprus

Kalispera! (Greek for good evening)

Yesterday, I worked ‘split’ which means you work in the morning from 9 AM to 1 PM and in the evening from 6 PM to 8.30 PM which is actually very nice because in the afternoon I have time for myself and can do whatever I like.

In the morning, I helped with breakfast and after that in the pool bar. In the morning, many Dutch guests were dressed up in orange because it was king’s day. At 1 PM I had lunch and enjoyed the sun around the pool. In the evening I helped in the restaurant with dinner. Yesterday there were many new arrivals. Therefore, we needed to explain the system in the restaurant to the new guests. When I had dinner myself, I met a woman who is on holiday here by herself. I talked with her about where she was living, about her grandchildren and about king’s day. She was very kind to me. I think I will speak more often with her this week. Furthermore, I met two French-speaking girls with whom I had lunch. In the evening I visited the bingo night and the ‘Tribute to the stars’ show.

Today I worked again ‘split’. Instead of helping with breakfast I walked around the swimming pool area and talked to some people who got up very early this morning. Today was the first day that people really recognized me and wanted to know what I am doing here. I had some lovely conversations with people from all age categories.  In the evening I watched the ‘Blues Brothers’ show. Now, I am a bit tired it was a long day.

    wat een leuk verhaal Guus, volgens mij begin je steeds meer kennis te maken met de mensen die daar komen logeren en dat is goed voor je algemene ontwikkeling enz. Prachtig hoor !! groetjes ook van opa.
