　　出门在外最怕弄丢了自己，旅游达人给大家分享一下迷路的经历并给大家提供一些宝贵建议。

　　Todd: So, Greg, do you have any stories about being lost, since you have all this good advice?

　　Greg: Ah, well, let me think. Ah, there was one time I got lost in the mountains of the Golden Triangle in Thailand. The Golden Triangle as you might know is famous for a lot of drug trafficking, and its also a tourist spot in some areas. Some areas are very safe and some areas are very dangerous actually, and my friend and I, we were hiking by ourselves in the mountains and we got lost, and we actually wondered across the border from Thailand into Myanmar. And we came across this village; very. very poor village, very of hill tribes people, and some of the people there were really unfriendly, they just started throwing rocks at my friends and I (oh, man) and shouting things. We couldnt talk, so we just backed away, went back quickly up the hill and we were wondering, we didnt know where to go, and luckily I could see in the distance, there was one tree that stood out because the hill had been burned, but there was one tree that didnt get burned and I remembered that tree when we were coming over, so that was my landmark which helped me to return, and I headed straight for that tree and then I saw the route, and Ive been lost before. I love going into mountains, actually my friends and I got a little bit lost when we were hiking in some little forest in England last summer, but no, I make it a habit when Im going through trails, and Im not sure where to go, I put rocks, pile rocks on top of each other, or I put sticks to make an arrow in the direction I want to go.

　　Todd: Ah, thats pretty good.

　　Greg: So I find a pile of rocks and sticks and then I return that way.

　　Todd: So, wow, back to the hill tribe people: Why do you think that they were mad? Do you think they were really upset with foreigners coming in to their territory, like they were trying to protect their little area?

　　Greg: There could be many reasons. Maybe because there used to be a lot of opium being grown in that area, maybe they were growing opium and they didnt want anyone to see it. Thats one thing. Maybe, just they were worried about foreigners, for some reason, maybe theyve been treated badly before by foreigners. (Right!) I have no idea. (Well) It was pretty scary.

　　Todd: Yeah, well, better rocks than bullets.

　　Greg: Yeah.
