Interviewer: What do you do at the station?

Volunteer: I help visitors find exits, bus stops, and nearby buildings.

Interviewer: What question do people ask most often?

Volunteer: They ask, “Which exit should I use?” Stations have many exits, and some of them feel like different countries.

Interviewer: How do you explain directions clearly?

Volunteer: I use simple landmarks. For example, I say, “Walk toward the bakery, then turn left at the flower shop.”

Interviewer: What is difficult about the work?

Volunteer: People are often in a hurry. I must be calm, short, and accurate.

Interviewer: Do you enjoy it?

Volunteer: Yes. When someone finds the right place, their face relaxes. That is a good moment.
