[originaltext]W: So, Greg, you are quite the world traveler I hear.M: Um, yeah

W: So, Greg, you are quite the world traveler I hear.
M: Um, yeah, I love traveling. I’ve been to probably around, I don’t know, 20 different countries. I’ve lived in Thailand and South Korea and the United Arab Emirates, and four different parts of Japan.
W: Oh, that’s a lot.
M: And of course several different places in the U. S.
W: Well, for somebody who’s going to travel for the first time, what type of advice would you give him, in case he gets lost?
M:(6)Ah, getting lost. Yeah, that happens all the time. You have to prepare for that. (7 - 1)One of the first things I do whenever I get to an airport is I see if I can get a map from the information center, or when I go to_a_hotel, I ask if they have a map of the area.
W: That’s quite considerate.
M:(7 -2)When I want to go somewhere, I ask them to write the destination in the local language, and also I practice my pronunciation with them, and sometimes I’ll get a business card from the hotel.
W: OK, well, let’s say that, um, you’re on business in a foreign country, and you’re really busy and you forget to get the business card, you don’t have the map, you’re trying to find a place and you’re completely lost, what should you do?
M: Well, of course, you’ve got to ask people.(8)And it’s a good idea to ask a lot of different people because in some countries people don’t want to say no, and they don’t want to say "I don’t know" , either. They may give you the wrong directions.
W: Well, so when you’re going down the street, and say you are lost, is there a certain person who is better at giving directions?
M: Um, well, if it’s a child, and you want to get to a business section or something, probably he doesn’t know. It’s a good idea to ask some adults who look as if they live in the area.
W: Right. So you’re talking about people who work in shops and things like that?
M:(9)Yes, and also, delivery men are usually very good, because they have to go all over the city, so they know it well.
W: Right. So have you actually ever been lost?
M: Oh, I’ve been lost all the time. Once I got lost for a couple of hours in Bangkok and it was terrible.
W: Well, that’s a densely populated city.
M:(10)Yeah, so after that, it gave me the idea that I should always check for landmarks. You know landmarks are really tall buildings, or a river, something I could always know, and I could see easily.
W: Well, it sounds like good advice. Thanks Greg.
M: You’re welcome.
