The leading American cruise lines – the Royal Caribbean

The topic of today’s session of the GABFEST Club (at Window on America center Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine) was planned as a free-topic session. We started the session with the introductions of the WOA staff and committee for the newly arrived library patrons. After that the Club has elected the President for the current year as this position was vacant for several months. The only club member who met the requirements (loyalty to the club, fluent English, active participation) was Mr. Vlad Vlasenko. The group congratulated the new President of GABFEST Club and he promised to do his best for the fellow members.
The next activity was introductions of the new comers. Among them were students, medical doctor, psychologist, etc. One of the new comers instantly became our guest of honor.  Mr. Evgeniy has just returned after a contract on an American cruise line. The club members used this opportunity to learn more about Evgeniy’s experience. We have learned about one of the leading American cruise lines – the Royal Caribbean.  Evgeniy told us about the American corporate culture , about the atmosphere on board, the accommodation  for the passengers and the crew members.  

 
He was asked a lot of questions about his first experience with Royal Caribbean – the Alaska coastal cruises and crossing of the ocean to the South Pacific. The younger club members asked many questions about the applying procedures for cruise jobs in Ukraine.  The possibility to work and travel the world on board a modern cruise ship appeals to many people. Evgeniy was invited to visit the club again and share his other experiences with the group.
The session turned out to be very interesting and exciting even with the focus only on speaking activity.
Number of participants – 25 persons.
