Unexpected problem abroad Five years ago my wife and I decided to visit the Portuguese coastline for holidays because it was pretty close to our home and we hadn´t been there before; so we found some days off, made the luggage and drove happily to our neighbour country. First we visited Oporto, which it is in the north. I must admit that it was an amazing city with beautiful momuments like the bridge over the river Duero, and there were also friendly people. After that when I drove south to Lisbon I had to change my tourist plan because there were some roadworks in the highway, and I found myself driving throughout an old narrow road. Suddenly I suffered a wheel punture and I had to stop. Then I try to call to my insurance companý but unfortunately they weren´t able to understand me because I didn´t speak Portuguese. It was dark, My car was broken down and I coudn´t find help anywhere, so I decided to stay in a nearby mysterious hotel, It was rathet frightening. The next morning, We found that we had stopped in one of the most unknouwn amazing places in Portugal because of the incredible views; what´s more, We even met an old fiend of me who was working there as a waiter and he had the pleasure to help us with our broken car. In the end, My friend became our tourist guide for some days and we really enjoyed ourselves. If we hadn´t suffered that car wheel punture we wouldn´t have come across that unexpected beautiful place and we woundn´t have met our helpful friend. After all of that, we felt relax and happy.
