Read the text, then answer the questions that follow.
Naturschutzpark Thailand
Suchen Sie etwas Besonderes, wenn Sie reisen? Wollen Sie etwas mehr
von Ihrem nchsten Urlaub?
Den ganzen Tag nur am Strand liegen: das ist zu langweilig!
Wir bieten:
2 Wochen in einem Naturschutzpark in Thailand.
Als freiwilliger Arbeiter wohnt man kostenlos in einer traditionellen
Htte und man muss nur fr das leckere thailndische Essen bezahlen.
Man arbeitet mit exotischen Tieren wie Elefanten, Tigern oder Affen.
Wenn man will, kann man auch im tropischen Regenwald wandern
oder in den Bergen klettern.
Unsere Gste sagen:
Das war ein tolles Erlebnis: ich habe so viel gelernt und es machte
Spa den Tieren zu helfen (Marta aus Frankfurt)
Das Wandern im Dschungel war fantastisch. Man muss aber fit sein
(Otto aus Wien)
Dieser Urlaub war wirklich anders: ausgezeichnet!(Michael aus
Mnchen)

Willkommen zu meinem Blog! Ich bin Tina und schreibe ber mein
Arbeitspraktikum im Sportgeschft Aktivwelt. Glck habe ich gehabt!
Mein Basketballtrainer sagte mir, dass Aktivwelt eine Stelle frei hatte, und

Ich hoffe, dass ihr diesen Blog interessant findet.
23. August
Heute war mein erster Tag. Es war super! Die Kollegen sind nicht viel lter
als ich und sehr cool. In der Mittagspause bin ich mit ihnen ins Caf
gegangen. Am Vormittag habe ich in der Schuhabteilung gearbeitet und
danach war ich an der Kasse. Ich habe so viel gelernt. Morgen wird es
bestimmt auch Spa machen. Vielleicht kann ich mit den Basketbllen,
Tennisschlgern und Fitnessmaschinen spielen.
24. August
Ach, ich bin soooooo mde! Jeden Tag so frh aufstehen zu mssen das
kann ich nicht mehr! Und meine Fe! Die tun mir so weh! Ich habe auch
genug von den unfreundlichen Kunden.
Heute kann ich nicht mehr schreiben. Es tut mir leid. Ich gehe ins Bett.
27. August
Hier bin ich wieder. Ich wei, dass ich die letzten Tage nichts geschrieben
habe
Aber heute habe ich etwas Besonderes zu schreiben.
Der Chef war so zufrieden mit mir, weil ich ein teueres Mountainbike
verkauft habe. Als Dank dafr hat er mir das Mittagessen bezahlt.
Danach hatte ich eine groe berraschung. Der olympische Schwimmer
Daniel Wassermann war im Sportgeschft und ich habe ihm geholfen,
Sportschuhe zu finden! Spitze!
