@luismiguelromeroossa7491 6 жыл бұрын

Hey jeff, what a good video, remember that if your videos are of help to guide or educate people who wish to dedicate themselves to this world, take into account that before entering confined spaces you must carry out some entry procedures, for ensure the life of the sailor, as these spaces do not have much oxygen and usually there are toxic gases for humans which can lead to death if these procedures are not followed. It is only a recommendation for upcoming videos.

It depends on your luck of meeting a good chief cook.

The cook was Malaysian and worked in a 5 star hotel previously, so he was very skilled in both western and Asian dishes.
