Topic 8 - Write about a transportation problem you used to overcome when you travel.

During a domestic trip, I encountered a traffic problem that put my problem-solving skills to the test. The incident happened in bustling Ho Chi Minh City, famous for its vibrant street life and bustling markets.

 

One day, as I was exploring the city's famous temples and attractions, I found myself stranded in a crowded area with no available taxis or public transportation in sight. My initial plan to hail a taxi back to my hotel was thwarted by the heavy traffic and lack of available vehicles.

 

Feeling a bit anxious about being stranded in an unfamiliar place, I decided to seek help from a local resident nearby. They kindly suggested using a popular ride-sharing app that was widely used in the city. With their assistance, I downloaded the app, input my destination, and within minutes, I was able to secure a ride back to my hotel.

 

As I sat in the comfortable air-conditioned car, relieved to be on my way back, I felt a sense of gratitude for the kindness of the local resident who had helped me and the convenience of modern technology that had come to my rescue. The experience taught me the importance of being resourceful, seeking help when needed, and embracing new technologies to overcome transportation challenges while traveling.

 

Looking back, I realize that unexpected traffic problems can happen at any time during travel and it is essential to stay calm, think creatively and seek help when needed. . This experience in Ho Chi Minh City not only helped me overcome challenging circumstances but also reminded me of the kindness and generosity of strangers in the country.
