Here I am going to talk about a situation when I lostmy way.This incident happened when I traveled to Hyderabad for an education trip.
- How did you feel when you were lost.
I was traveling with my classmate and we all were on a tour to ramoji film city. It's the biggest film city in Asia and many movies are made here. My professor was also with us.When I was traveling inside the film city I was visiting one place to another. And I was curious to visit sets of various movies and tv. And I realized my friends are not around me so I felt a little nervous and checked my mobile. My cell was dead with low battery so I had to inquire here and there after one hour I saw my professor and then I joined them again.
- How did you find your way out?
Being a mature person I did not fear but I was worried about my colleagues who were not around and I did not want to stay alone all day. So I tried to find them after making some inquiry and asking here and there about them and after a couple of hours I found them on a movie set. This is how I got lost and found my way.
