Are you afraid to talk to stranger when you need help while you are travelling?

i don't feel afaid when i had trouble in the traveling to ask other persons. they are all so friendly and for free to tell you how to do then you pass the troubles. i met many times when i in travel.

I am not shy to ask for help, especilly during a travel. Though not the driver, I am the one to ask for way for my man or son. But there are times the instruction turned out to be wrong, maybe the one I asked was not a native, or I did not catch clearly. So it is advisable to ask two persons for assurance. Most people are friendly and helpful, though.

Maximum I try to avoid any conversation or seeking help during my travel. But if it is very necessary and cannot be avoided, I don't mind approaching people. But little choosy about it. Think twice or thrice before appraching anyone.

We are very cautious when traveling. Some countries are really safe; and we feel comfortable asking strangers for direction and help. However in other places where the security is not so good, we will check with the hotel personnel for information or anything we need. Other than that, we would only check with personnel at shops or public places, not strangers on the streets.

If I need help I will ask someone who looks friendly and will approch them. I have had good experiences with this approach.

Hi,vivianchen Well,I never feel nervous to ask strangers when travelling.When having problems,I will just look around and choose someone to seek for help.I cannot tell you how I overcame it because I did never have this kind of problem...LOL! Have a nice day!

I was out one dark evening in Malaysia and thought I was stepping out into a road. However I fell into an open drain and badly injured my leg. I was helped by some strangers back to where I was staying. Another time I got a bad fever and terrible sickness. I needed help and strangers helped me. I was so grateful to them. I was in Slovakia and nobody spoke English. So I was at a bus station feeling really confused about which bus would take me to Poland. I asked if anyone spoke English in a loud voice. A polish boy helped me. Funnily enough by a lake in Poland I bumped into him and his dad. He became a pen friend. I was in Estonia and found it confusing how to find my guest house because lots of roads weren't named. My toddler son was just over one year old at the time. A wheel came off his pushchair and then it broke. A stranger came out of her house to help us. I had to ask a local mother where would sell new pushchairs. Some strangers can be kind. A few strangers can be dangerous

I always ask strangers for help in a different city. I do try to find the person that seems most friendly, though. I always try to ask employee’s because I figure they live in the area so they’ll know better than anyone. Plus, if it’s a highly tour area I think employees kind of expect the questions.

I've never been afraid to ask for help from a stranger. Usually people will help if they can, and are glad to do so. I think it makes people feel good to know that they have done their best to help someone.

no i love to talk to strangers. i find people are very cooperating.

hi, I never afraid to ask stranger if i need helping. 1st time im afraid, but i think if i didnt ask other people, maybe i can got some problem. So i try to ask other people to helping me and now im never afriad to ask stranger.^^
