E.B. Yergaliuly 4th-year student Kazakh Academy of Sport and Tourism Faculty of Professional Combat Sports I will talk about the Work and Travel program. The Work and Travel program is an opportunity for students to travel, work, learn new things, visit popular places, and discover US culture over 3 months. There will be an interview with a US consular officer in March or May. During the interview, you must prove that you will return to Kazakhstan. Many students stay behind through this program. All you need to do is take a vacation in the US, having fully paid for the program. I will explain the main points: after paying for the program and the interview, to increase your chances of not being rejected, you need to learn English. Participation in the program is available to every student who has reached 18 years of age. This program is a great opportunity for me; thanks to this progress, I can fulfill my dream. I have always dreamed of becoming a professional boxer. America is the homeland of professional boxers. There are strong boxers, and professional boxing athletes can be found in the USA. I am learning new things and improving my English by participating in this process, which has a huge impact on my future career. Because I can learn a new type of profession there. For me, it is a victory if I start my own business in Kazakhstan. Thanks to this program, I am achieving great success. First, I am studying and improving my English. I will go to the USA, which is a great opportunity for me coming from a village. I worked hard, and then I became. Or I can learn one type of profession and open my own. I think that a new environment and a new culture change me into a new person. If I were the head of the student exchange center, I would offer many discounts to students in the program and organize various games. The cities I want to visit in the USA are New York and Los Angeles. When I was a 3rd-year student, I tried to apply for the program, but I couldn't pass because my English was poor and I was insecure. So now I am a 4th-year student at the Academy of Sport and Tourism. Now, this year, I have returned to the program. I think everything will be different this year. Let me tell you about my favorite boxer, Manny Pacquiao. Manny Pacquiao trained at the Wild Card Boxing Club. The legendary trainer Freddie Roach prepared and brought up many champions. Among them are Amir Khan, Bernard Hopkins, Miguel Cotto, Mickey Rourke, Oscar De La Hoya, Wladimir Klitschko, and Manny Pacquiao. A coach who prepared and developed professional boxing stars. Brief biography of Freddie Roach He worked as an assistant to Eddie Futch for several years. Currently, Roach has his own gym, the Wild Card Boxing Club in Los Angeles, where he works with his brother Pepper. Throughout his career, Roach has worked with many outstanding athletes. He achieved his greatest success with the Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao. In his time, he was a professional boxer. Freddie Roach suffers from Parkinson's disease, the same disease that the famous Muhammad Ali suffers from. Now I will return to my favorite boxer, Manny Pacquiao, a Filipino boxer and world champion in 8 weight classes. He is not just a champion, but a person who has done many good deeds, building many houses in his country. When he boxed, crime cases in the Philippines stopped, and the citizens of his country called it the "Pacquiao Effect." My favorite athlete is this boxer. I want to visit this Wild Card gym located in Los Angeles. In this gym, our Kazakh boxers train: Aidar Sharibayev, Aidos Yerossynovich, and there are several other Kazakh amateur boxers who have visited the USA. I want to take a photo to see this gym with my own eyes. UFC fighters like Tony Ferguson train here. This is a famous boxing gym. Places I want to see in the USA are the Rocky Mountains monument, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and in general, I want to visit these popular places. Conclusion: The Work and Travel program gives

MY CHOICE IS THE WORK AND TRAVEL PROGRAM E.B. Yergaliuly 4th-year student Kazakh Academy of Sport and Tourism Faculty of Professional Combat Sports I am going to share information about the Work and Travel program. The Work and Travel program is an opportunity for students to travel and work during their 3-month vacation, learn new things, see America, visit popular places, and get to know US culture. The interview with the US consul takes place in March and May. During the interview, you must prove that you will return to Kazakhstan. Many students stay there through this program. Once you have received all the necessary vaccinations according to the rules and paid the full program fee, you can go to the USA for your vacation. If I were to explain the most important thing, it is that after the payment, the main thing is the interview; everything depends on it, and the chance of failing is high, so you need to learn English. Participating in the program is an opportunity given to every student who has turned 18. This program is a huge opportunity for me; through it, I can achieve my dream. I have always dreamed of becoming a professional boxer. America is the home of professional boxers. There are strong boxers there, and you can meet professional boxing athletes in the USA. By participating in the program, I will learn new things and improve my English, which will have a huge impact on my future career. Because I can learn a new profession there and bring it to Kazakhstan. If I start my own business in Kazakhstan, it will be a victory for me. Through this program, I will achieve great success. First of all, I will learn and improve my English. I will go to the USA; it is a huge opportunity for someone like me who came from a village. I can work well and even get married. Or I can learn a trade and start my own business. I think a new environment and a new culture will change me as a new person. If I were the boss at the student exchange center, I would provide as many discounts as possible to students in the program. I would organize various games to increase student interest. I cannot imagine how the program will change in 20-50 years. But I think it will be easier for students to go. I think the student exchange program will develop well in the future. I think the number of students will increase. Because the program is a very effective opportunity to go to the USA and prove yourself. I can say it is a ticket to a new life. The cities I want to travel to in the USA are New York and Los Angeles. I tried to apply for the program in my 3rd year, but I couldn't pass because my English was poor and I was insecure. So now I am in my 4th year at the Academy of Sport and Tourism. I have applied for the program again this year. I think everything will be different this year. Let me tell you about my favorite boxer, Manny Pacquiao. Manny Pacquiao used to train at the Wild Card boxing club. The coach there, Freddie Roach, has trained many champions. To name a few: Amir Khan, Bernard Hopkins, Miguel Cotto, Mickey Rourke, Oscar De La Hoya, Wladimir Klitschko, and Manny Pacquiao. A coach who has trained professional boxing stars.

Currently, Roach has his own gym, the Wild Card boxing club in Los Angeles, where he works with his brother Pepper. In his career, Roach has worked with many prominent athletes. He achieved his greatest success with the Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao. He was also a professional boxer himself at one time. Freddie Roach suffers from Parkinson's disease, the same disease that the famous Muhammad Ali suffered from. Now let me return to my favorite boxer, Manny Pacquiao, a Filipino boxer who is an 8-division world champion. He is not just a champion; he is a person who has built many houses in his country and done many good deeds. It is said that when he fights, theft and hooliganism stop in the Philippines; the citizens of hi

Just like last year. Naturally, I had to add a bonus for those who made it to the end. How could I not? This year is completely different. If last year I was discussing cinema, this time it's about culinary arts. Or rather, I want to prove to you that fast-food restaurants can also have gourmet cuisine :) Or at least something unusual. For example, the Breakfast Burrito, which was one of our restaurant's main highlights. Stewed onions, green and red peppers, bacon, and cheddar. All this in a Mexican tortilla. Another miracle was the traditional Italian omelet, Frittata, consisting of spinach, cherry tomatoes, and feta cheese. Later, we started making food for ourselves out of whatever was available, but not on the menu. For example, here is a burrito analog - a Quesadilla. You can put anything in it. But our main ingredients were cheese and chicken. Also, there was incredible trout with a special butter prepared in advance with lemon zest and juice, parsley, as well as onion and garlic powders. During cooking, this butter was melted over the fish right before serving. Unfortunately, the photos show unfinished dishes. There should have been potatoes and lemons too. This is the breakfast we made for ourselves and other workers - a Breakfast Sandwich, which could also contain anything, but the main component, of course, was an egg. It had to be soft-cooked so that the yolk would definitely run when bitten. This is a major American thing. Breakfast is a very important thing here, so an egg can be fried, boiled, etc., in more than 10 ways. Once we prepared a special dish of the day: Steak wrapped in bacon. Everything was served as usual with vegetables and mashed potatoes. The vegetables this time were fried zucchini with red pepper. People here love that. After a while, we were brought a different kind of steak that was just begging to be put on French baguettes. So, we ended up with sandwiches like these, with fried onions and blue cheese. Then we returned to Mexican cuisine again, making a Taco Salad. Consisting of steak, vegetables, greens, and a deep-fried tortilla. When a fire happened at our hotel, we were brought a ton of salmon, so for about two weeks, we were racking our brains to come up with different dishes from it. Well, of course, trying to alternate with others. Sometimes it was salads, sometimes sandwiches, or just these fried main courses. Actually, it was really delicious. Again, from the same hotel, we were brought some mozzarella, and for ourselves, we prepared Bruschetta appetizers with basil, tomatoes, and mozzarella. All this on a toasted baguette. To be honest, I didn't participate in this recipe, so I remember it vaguely. I only know that it seems to be chicken in a spicy sauce with basil and tomatoes. And, of course, how can you do without real Italian pasta when you have an Italian chef working with you? And one time we even baked pork ribs in the oven. True, this was again for ourselves. Another experiment was non-traditional sushi. Yes, sacrilege to some extent, but also interesting. Also filled with rice, but wrapped in a tortilla, and the meat was steak in one version, and if I remember correctly, chicken in the other. And besides that, there were various types of vegetables and greens inside. It turned out pretty good. Of course, these are not all the delights of our kitchen. There were many more delicacies and interesting preparations that I forgot to photograph or just couldn't find right now. But many people think that working as a cook under the program means just being a handout receiver. Well, no. It is serious work and excellent experience. Over 2 seasons, I learned from scratch to be a decent cook, albeit a beginner. Thanks to all the chefs I had to work with during these seasons. They really gave me unique knowledge.

Here is, essentially, almost the entire crew of Eddie's Cafe and groceries for the 2014 season. Well, excluding a few people who have already managed to leave. These people became my family. We went through so much during this nearly one-third of a year. And I really don't want this program to end. I want to start all over again, from that very turning point when I arrived here and met the first part of my foreign family. Now it's hard to recall the first steps in the kitchen and the first acquaintances with those around me, but the funniest moments of this summer keep spinning endlessly in my head. There are many of them, and I have no doubt there will be more. And, of course, the summer was memorable not only for work, but for these freaks. Yes, exactly, freaks. There are about 30 of us here, absolutely different, completely unlike each other, and crazy in our own way. Yes, it's never boring here, especially in the kitchen: laughter, music, and fun almost all day long. And in truth, we didn't live here in harmony and love. We endlessly teased each other all day, non-stop, but that was the essence of all these well-coordinated relationships in our team. No, not a team, a family. Yes, exactly. An international family of freaks. What could be sweeter? To help you understand, 'freaks' is when one of the managers treated me so well that he offered for me to move to his native Illinois and arrange a fake marriage so I could get a green card and stay in the States. Even though he is absolutely traditionally oriented. We were just good friends. P.S. And the bear below is, in fact, Eddie himself, after whom, apparently, the restaurant was named. (P.S. from 2017 - the restaurant was not named after him, but if I'm not mistaken, he was just the owner of Eddie back in the mid-20th century).

Time relentlessly marches forward, And the whole world is changing at a frantic pace. And so, the year '39 Goes on air with stunning news.. "This year, America is finally introducing a visa-free regime for the Russian Federation. Political analysts are throwing up their hands and spouting demagoguery, while travel agencies are struggling with the shock of a huge influx of tourists dreaming of getting to the United States"… The news anchor's voice on screen was devoid of all emotion – for her, it's just another boom-news story that needs to be told, just her job. Yes, it's the year '39, and we are still just as dependent on the box. Ha. Some things will remain unchanged forever. News. This hasn't been new for a long time. At least, not for me. The guys from IEC wrote about this in their app three days ago. No problems with visas and passports – even if now it's just a chip in your finger. Fewer problems – more time to practice the language. I can't imagine how people learned foreign languages before – all those tips like "listen to songs and watch movies in the original" seem so dubious. Now everything is much simpler and far more interesting, thanks to learn-rooms. A room where you are one-on-one with a hologram of Freddie Mercury, and you can ask him any question. Or the Queen of England, or Angelina Jolie – anyone at all. You have to admit, it's quite motivating! True, they are hard to find; not many people want to bother with setting up such rooms. But I got lucky, the IEC office has one! But what is IEC, you ask? Iii, seriously? You don't know one of the leading agencies for working with international programs? Well, my dears, IEC is the executor of your most desired dreams. For over 50 years, the agency has been helping people travel all over the world. Once upon a time, my mom flew to the USA through them, and back then in St. Petersburg, IEC had a small office and a huge number of applicants. Now the agency is located in a trendy business center on Nevsky Prospect, occupies two floors, and they still have just as many applicants. I am a participant in the 2039 program. Of course, now you can travel without leaving your home; it's enough to buy a VR headset and load any country you like into it. This newfangled gadget transmits everything – smells, sounds, temperature, even touch. God, some people have even stopped going outside because of them. But I'm not one of those who is comfortable living in a VR world. I like to feel the whole atmosphere for myself. Of course, this will cost significantly more than a headset. Airplanes, where you can sit – WOW – have practically disappeared as a mode of transport, and a ticket for a teleporter will only pay off if I sell a kidney, which is not an option right away because I don't have connections on the black market. Just kidding, of course. I am a law-abiding citizen. So I'll have to fly by jet – just 3 hours standing – and voila: America, hello. I have almost nothing left – just pay the final stage. Tomorrow IEC will send their courier with a chip reader. Yes, yes, we also pay via chip. You know what, at least I've never lost money – ha. And I don't need to exchange currency because the reader handles that perfectly well on its own. And I found a vacancy that's just right. A model for a glog-bracelet. Isn't it great – you press the bracelet, and a small copy of me tells you how it's super-duper-better-than-anything-seriously-stop-at-ours. Alina, my advisor from IEC, who is assigned to 10 other guys, said that the vacancy is rare, and getting it is the chance of a lifetime. So I'm the lucky one here! "And next on air: cancellation of the visa regime in the USA – the world is becoming more and more boundless.."
