Destination Unknown

A wondering foreigner arrives in an unknown destination in search for surprising adventure. He walks down the street, whistling, carrying his one and only suitcase. He walks up to a stand where a man is sitting, reading a newspaper behind a table full of some kind of brochures and pamphlets. The man puts down his suitcase and grabs what looks like a map to him. At that instant, the local jumps up from his seat and starts yelling in broken English as he snatches the brochure from his hand. The local yells, “What do you think you’re doing? Grabbing a people’s stuff? You want this? Give me 2 dollars, you get this”. The foreigner turns around with a scared look on his face, only to find that his suitcase is gone. Meanwhile, the local mumbles to himself in a quiet, irritated tone, “These visitors…don’t even respect the man’s business”. He walks up to another male, smoking a cigarette. After politely asking, “Do you know where I can find a map?”, all he gets in response is, (Spanish) “Arruinó mi paz! ¿Qué quieres? No me incomode más!”. As he carefully backs away, he stumbles upon a provocative looking woman in a short skirt and low cut top, who asks him with a sheepish smile, “Vous lez vous couche a ves mas se suas?” *Wink*. She forces herself upon him, and he has to push her away from him with strength. However the woman grabs a hold of his arm and drags him away with her in her high heels.
