Get Yourself Lost

Be adventurous! The best way to experience any place is 4 and with absolutely no travel 5 . Simply go wherever your feet and your 6 lead you. You eventually will get to the same sites that are on the bus tour - the museums, the monuments city hall- but will have 7 much more. You will have felt the contemporary life of the city.
“But what if I get lost?” People might ask. No one gets 8 lost in a major city. Eventually, you can find your way back to a well-known location. If it frightens you to be “lost”, just find a taxi and go back to where you 9 . However, the nicest things can happen if you get lost. You stop at a sidewalk café to 10 and relax. You ask instructions of the local people at the 11 table. And even if they don’t speak your language, your trip bees more 12 because of the experience.
So next time you see a poster advertising an introductory bus tour, 13 your money. Instead, wander on your own. I 15 you a time you’ll remember with great pleasure.
