Once upon a time, there was a man who wanted to visit a foreign country. He was very excited about the trip, but he didn’t know much about the culture of the country he was going to visit. When he arrived, he was surprised to find that people there had very different customs and habits from his own country.
One day, he went to a restaurant and ordered a meal. However, when the food was served, he was shocked to see that it was something he had never seen before. He didn’t know what to do, so he asked the waiter for help. The waiter spoke English, but his accent was very difficult for the man to understand. After several attempts, the man finally understood that the waiter was telling him that the food was not to his taste. He decided to return the food and order something else.
The next day, the man went to a shop to buy some souvenirs. However, when he tried to pay for them, he was refused. The shopkeeper explained that he couldn’t accept credit cards and only accepted cash. The man was very confused and didn’t know what to do. He had no cash with him and didn’t know how to withdraw money from an ATM.
