Speaker 1
I think I just may book a cruise and was wondering what you thought of me going on your cruise. I was thinking it would be fun to see your gig.
Speaker 2
that would be great, you should definitely come! at least we can both agree that we love cruises!
Speaker 1
I can't wait to go on my next cruise!  I have to check out your blogs.  I bet you have a lot of stories!
Speaker 2
yeah, I have started getting into blogging about vegan recipes. when was the last time you participated in debates?
Speaker 1
A few days ago.  I have another one coming up next week.  So whats your latest vegan recipe on your blog?  I'm interested in trying some new recipes too!
Speaker 2
I see, i hope the debate goes well for you. It's a vegan chicken recipe, it was inspired the food that I ate when I travelled last year.
Speaker 1
Where did you travel to that gave you that inspiration?  
Speaker 2
I went to Greece. It was a fun trip and I saw loads of animals which was a bonus. Where did you go for your last cruise?
Speaker 1
We did the western caribbean.  It was so beautiful and fun.  I'd love to do a European one or one around the Hawaiian islands!
Speaker 2
I remember going on a cruise around the Hawaiian islands, I will never forget that trip. You would've loved to go swimming there when you were younger!
Speaker 1
I know its beautiful!  I wish I could have gone sooner in my life.  I'm totally going to make it happen some day!
Speaker 2
You should, I could probably get you some sort of discount for travel because of my job.

Speaker 1
So do you have any guesses what country you will visit next?
Speaker 2
As soon as the cruise lines open up again, I'd like to go to Alaska!  I'd love to go whale-watching whenever I'm not working in the lounge.
Speaker 1
That sounds like a lot of fun! Is there a certain time of year that is best for whale watching?
Speaker 2
I've heard Summer is the best time.  It would be great to see something different, my last trip was to Greece which was beautiful but full of tourists..
Speaker 1
Do you sing different music depending on where the ship is traveling? I imagine people would want that if you are visiting Hawaii. What about Alaskan songs? 
Speaker 2
You know that's a great question!  I'll have to look up some Alaskan songs.  I usually do the classic favorites that people always request, and then we'll feature some local performers to show off the culture of the region.  We had some beautiful dancers come on board and perform when we toured Hawaii.
Speaker 1
Oh, that is lovely! I really need to book a Hawaiian cruise! I am ready to get my swimming game on again!
Speaker 2
Oh you definitely should! It's so gorgeous there.  I know you love to swim, have you ever been surfing?  There are tons of classes you can take there!
Speaker 1
Haha! I think I fell off the board a few times when I was younger! Have you become a surfing pro with all that time at sea?
Speaker 2
I gave it a try, but it was a lot harder than I thought.  I preferred the diving classes, there are so many cool fish and other animals to see.
Speaker 1
Do you ever fish? I bet there are some yummy and interesting ones out there! I jest, I know you are vegan. But you can catch and release.
Speaker 2
Haha no I could never fish, even as catch and release. When I visited Hawaii though everyone ate fish and my friends said it was the best they ever had.  I'm sure when you visit you could pick up some new recipes to try.

I want to go to Alaska.  I like whale-watching. I like to sing classic songs that people know. I enjoy scuba diving.  I think learning to surf is hard. I enjoy viewing fish and wild animals. I do not fish.  I place high value on all life.
Speaker 1
I think I'm going to try a new recipe for salmon for dinner tonight.  I need to stay in shape so when I finally do get to go a cruise I'll be looking good!
Speaker 2
What are you making for dinner?
Speaker 1
Well I am going to make salmon on the grill, with lemon and dill! I am going to make a kale salad to go along with it. I am not sure how it will taste but it is healthy!
Speaker 2
I bet the salmon will be great for you since you love fish. I've had good kale and bad kale, so it's a coin flip! You going to be able to keep this up?
Speaker 1
Honestly, I am not sure. I love food so much. Do you have any tips for maintaining? You must have a very healthy diet being a vegan.
Speaker 2
You really need to find the foods that you enjoy. It might take a little time. No one will stay healthy eating food they hate.
Speaker 1
I think I get bored of the food easily when I am dieting. I need to switch it up. Do you have any exciting recipes?
Speaker 2
I make some really good kale chips. They are healthy, crunchy, and tasty. Those sound any good>
Speaker 1
hmm, tell me more! How do you make them? Do you add any type of seasoning to them? 
Speaker 2
Whatever seasoning you want. I like curry, jerk, and lemon-pepper. Just toss with a little oil and bake in the oven
Speaker 1
OK, I will definitely try it! Potato chips are my downfall, so this sounds like a much healthier alternative. 
Speaker 2
I don't even buy chips. If they are here, I eat them all. So I just don't even let them in the home.

Speaker 1
I just went on a short cruise around Greece and had a great time!
Speaker 2
That sounds awesome. I've been to Greece and it is truly beautiful. What was your favorite spot that you visited?
Speaker 1
I loved all the Aegean islands -- especially seeing the terraced coastal villages with tile roofs! When you sing on cruises, how much of your time is taken up with work and how much free time do you have to enjoy the cruise yourself?
Speaker 2
It is a lot of work. I would say 90% of the time I'm doing work but is it really work when you love going on cruises? I could probably get you a job on the same cruises that I work on. Would you be interested? It's an awesome job!
Speaker 1
Sounds like something I should look into. Cooking is a hobby of mine.
Speaker 2
There is always need for chefs on a cruise ship! About the only thing people do on a cruise is eat, drink, and check out exotic locations. Would you want to work in a Kitchen or do you just prefer it as a hobby?
Speaker 1
I think I'd enjoy working in the kitchen, if it's not too fast-paced for me to keep up with. Maybe a sous chef doing prep or something.
Speaker 2
It really depends on how full the cruise ship is. I would say about 50% of the cruises are full. Sometimes, its nearly empty. Those are the best cruises to be working because you don't end up doing much work at all!
Speaker 1
That sounds great! But I think I could get into the swing of things pretty quickly, so long as I'm doing something like ingredient prep that needs to be done fast but doesn't involve a lot of multi-tasking.
Speaker 2
Next time I see the head chef, I'll ask him. I'm sure he will be interested.
Speaker 1
Thanks so much for offering to do this! I'm really looking forward to it. Where does the ship mostly sail?
Speaker 2
All over the Atlantic ocean! Our primary spot is Caribbean locations as those trips are shorter trips.
