Todd: Hey, Victor, I hear you're going home tomorrow.


Victor: Yes, I am.


Todd: Ah, that's too bad... So how long have you been here?


Victor: I've been here for two weeks.


Todd: I'm sorry, I was never sure. Why did you come to Japan?


Victor: Came to Japan to study martial 1 arts. Budo-taijutsu is the art that we study.


Todd: Oh! OK, cool! So are like a black belt 2?


Victor: Yes, yes!


Todd: Oh, really! Wow, how long have you been doing your martial arts?


Victor: I've been studying this art for about 18 years I guess.


Todd: Really!


Victor: A long time.


Todd: That's a long time. You're a young looking guy. You like 18 years.


Victor: No no no, I'm an old guy.


Todd: Well, so when you go back to the States you also train


Victor: Yes, yes! We have a group that we train in martial arts there as sort 3 of a hobby. It's sort of a way of life also. But I have a real job. I'm a civil 4 engineer.


Todd: So, actually what does a civil engineer do?


Victor: In America, a civil engineer designs things. In my case, I work on buildings, buildings that have structural 5 problems, and I work on repair plans.


Todd: OK. Sounds like a tough 6 job.


Victor: It's OK. It's interesting. All buildings need repairs and it's fun.


Todd: Great, thanks a lot, Victor. Have a safe trip tomorrow.


Victor: Well, thank you very much
