I got lost in the city of Virginia when I went on vacation two months ago with my sister. We were looking for the mall, and we got lost. After that, I called an Uber.
If I got lost again this is what I would do: I would look for help with other people, or with some city Police. Now it is also easier with the technology, because we have smartphones. When I get lost in a place I do not know, I look for the address by Google Map. I follow the instructions. There comes the arrow where I have to walk, and I arrive at the place.
Another easier way now is I call Uber and they will be ready to take me where I need to go.
