Hi, it's me. How's it going? I guess you're at work and you don't have your phone on, right? First of all, thank you, THANK YOU for the birthday card and message. I received it this morning. That's so nice of you. I'm organising a little party for my birthday. It's nothing very big – only a few of my best and closest friends. That means you too! We're going to have it at my cousin's house. She lives in the countryside in a nice big house with a swimming pool. I'd love to see you there. It's going to be this Friday. I'll send you the instructions on how to get there later, OK?
Anyway, have fun at work. Don't work too hard, OK? Talk soon.

Aw, you're still not answering your phone! OK, here are the instructions to get to my cousin's house for the party. Are you going to take your car? If you take the car, drive straight on Forest Road until you get to the motorway. Drive past Brownsville and take exit 13A. That's 13A. You drive down the road there and turn left. It's the first big house on the right. OK? If you're taking a bus, you can get the number 80 to Brownsville. Call me when you get there and somebody can pick you up in a car. I can't wait. This is going to be so great!
Well. I live in small town. It’s called Belgorod. I really don’t often go outside and if it happen i will choose my neighbourhood to walk around and breathe. But sometimes my mom got lost when she was trying to get to somewhere which is not popular place, although she has been living in Belgorod since she was born. Her husband always help her with her road problems.
I live in a smalltown called Crato. I usually give instructions with my phone messeges somebody can until to stay lost lol, but I trying do my best.

Yes, it is. I have lived in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam. It's so crowded and many small street, so it's easy to be lost. I've gived intrustion for a group of foreigner from Korea go to us hotel on the beach.

I'm not to visitor but if to found briefs locations in my town (Verda Montañita) it's like go straight and left and later go past the river, it's all, thank you. Bye.
No, it is fairly hard to get lost in my town. Sometimes, if someone needs help with direction, I will direct them to their destination.
I live in a small town where it is easy to ask someone for directions if you are looking for some location. Recently, I helped an old man to find the way to the bus station. I knew the area well and I was able to give him directions.
When you come here for the first time It's easy to get lost, however, you can ask for somebody to give instructions when you need to go to a specific site.
Sometimes I've found some tourists in my city that ask me for instructions, they usually want to visit famous places so I try to help them.
If you come to my house you can take the bus from metro normal; you have to take the bus that says wallmart or plan de san luis.
After taking the bus you have to get down in the corner from Av. Cuitlahuac and Av. Plan de San Luis. After that you have to cross
