My friend Jettrin’s job is cool! What does he do? Well, he’s a tour guide for divers. Jettrin is Thai and is 24
years old. I think his job is interesting because people from all around the world come to Thailand to dive in
the sea with Jettrin. So every day he meets people from different countries. Some of Jettrin’s friends are from
Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Canada, Uruguay, and Greenland. Wow! His life is exciting, and he has a good
salary too.

In my job, I see the same people every day. I’m a diver too, but not for tourists. I dive for seafood with my
brother and father. We catch octopus and shellfish. My family and I then sell the seafood to restaurants. My
name is Luis and I’m 24 like Jettrin. My salary isn’t good, though. We are poor and life isn’t easy, but we are
happy. We come from Bioko, Equatorial Guinea. We are Equatorial Guinean and we speak Spanish here. We
are the only country in Africa where people speak Spanish. Tourists come here from Spain, but not from many
other countries. I sometimes want to meet more people like Jettrin does, but I enjoy my days with my brother
and father.

Diving is difficult and it isn’t a safe occupation. The sea is sometimes very cold and there are many dangerous
fish. However, for me, the work is very interesting. I think other jobs are boring. Police officers, pilots, and
photographers aren’t like us. We can stay underwater for 10 minutes! Jettrin and I are very lucky men.
