That stinks! I’m always surprised by taxis that refuse to pick people up. You’d think they’d want the money!

It’s so funny how many people are so reticent to do it. We’ve yet to have an issue, and the payoff has been wonderful!

Then a heavy rain came and 3 cabs turned me down for a ride! I was soaked, lost and frustrated!

I found a wifi signal and posted to face book about my misadventure. My elderly Aunt in the USA saw this and got so worried she called the State Department!

Unfortunately …they did not find me important enough to follow up, otherwise…it would be a better story!

Following the senses is such a fun way to explore! I’m always finding new, wonderful things with that method.

I love getting lost while travelling – I usually do the ‘follow your sense’ technique. If I hear music, I’m there. If there’s some bright lights (that aren’t either fire or some kind of explosion…!) I’m there too. Great job on encouraging your readers to get lost too.

We got off the train at the ‘wrong’ stop and spent an hour or so wandering around a ‘deprived’ area. The sounds and smells were fantastic and when we eventually realised we were truly lost, we asked a man who had a fruit and vegetable cart if he knew anywhere we could have lunch (I did this in faltering Italian, while buying some fruit); he took us to this tiny hovel with electric wires hanging everywhere….we had THE best pizza and simple salad I have ever tasted, and some great interaction with the locals.

I credit my dad with my longing to get lost. When we went anywhere, even if we had been a dozen times before he would always say,”Let’s see where this road takes us!” if he saw an interesting turning.

My husband and I always just wander, whenever we visit a town or city, and it has given us great memories!
