My trip to the U.S.

Today, young people prefer not to just rest abroad, they turn to the international educational and cultural exchange programs to improve foreign language, earn and see the world simultaneously. Typically, three – four months of summer vacation, Russian students have time to implement all their plans.

Today our guest Alex Godyna, a student at the Astrakhan State Technical University:

Before traveling to the U.S. I would not know English spoken. At the Center of emigration and exchange programs, I propose a program of Work and travel USA, I stopped her because she was allowed to choose the work on site. That is to say, I was invited to the management of attractions in the city Oupocherkbich Maine – is in the north – eastern coast of the U.S. Center – Boston, but pressing the button two weeks of attractions, I wanted to do something more interesting. Acquainted with Russian students, who better than I possessed in English, we started looking for work. At first, worked through the newspapers, then found in Portland special employment offices, where they offered us a good option, but in Portland. We do not want to change residence and rent a car could not afford. Do not forget, we got some money. Then we just started to bypass the organization, and were on the site.

To me, the future of mechanics, on the project was very interesting, I met with new construction materials and new technologies. The Americans are building office buildings and homes from foam, various nets and heaters, sometimes it seems to assemble design.

First, at a construction site all working to clear debris, and then begin to explore the construction field. By the end of September, I was already working on an equal footing, even on the lifting and transport mechanisms. We toiled for 12 hours and still worked part time in restaurants. The only pity is that initially, having no experience of foreign travel. Lost a lot of time to work. Those who follow us, I advise: choose a southern state, where there are no sharp fluctuations in climate. Because if you settle down to the construction site or other seasonal work, then on your earnings will affect wind, rain and heat. Choose a big city, there’s more opportunities for employment. Better to go with a partner, one head is good, two is better, and think its OS security there must be the same as in Russia. Language, too, need to know, because competition is high, the states go to work people from all countries of the former Eastern Bloc.

Girl’s best to start with work in the scout camps. That’s a lot cheaper for spending. In addition, there is stability, security and safety.

If vykazhite diligence and promptness. That is a chance to be invited by the employer for the next season, but it was a good prospect of higher earnings.

Month of the four I relaxed, swam in the Atlantic Ocean, played on the beach in basketball, getting acquainted with the lives of Americans. Of course, this is an entirely different world, which I liked. There have been various adventures, but the hard work paid off. I am very pleased that he decided on this trip. I would still go abroad on exchange programs, but after graduation to make it more difficult. Is that the internship.
