Hello
Hello. How are you?
Fine thanks, and you?
Fine. What's your name?
I'm Galina Mikhailovna, and you?
I'm Igor Nikolaiovich. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Where are you from?
I'm from Almaty in Kazakhstan, but live half the year in the International Space Station. And you?
I'm from Moskow but live in Novosibirsk. Are you a cosmonaut?
Yes. And you? What do you do?
I'm a zookeeper in Novosibirsk Zoo.
Wow, that's cool!
What? Even cooler than being a cosmonaut?
Yes, absolutely. I always wanted to work with animals, but my father insisted that I become a cosmonaut.
Isn't being in space exciting?
Well it was at first, and the views are incredible, but it can be rather boring stuck in a small space station with the same people all the time.
Oh, I never thought about it like that. What do you do on the International Space Station?
We do experiments, sing songs, write poetry and look at the view.
What's it like being weightless?
At first it was weird and I was sick, but I'm used to it now.
Well, I have to go now. Goodbye.
Goodbye.
