X. Read the story and answer.

My worst vacation experience was when I was a student and I went on a train trip around Europe
with a college friend. First, we went to Paris. On our first day there, we were standing in the
subway station when someone took my wallet. We didn´t have much cash after that, so we had
to save money. We couldn’t afford to eat in restaurants, so we ate bread, cheese, and tomatoes
every day. We couldn’t’ afford hotels either, so we slept on the trains or in the train stations. One
night we were sleeping in a park when a police officer shouted at us. We couldn’t understand him,
and I was really frightened. It was not fun. We visited a lot of beautiful places, but on our last
vacation day I just wanted to go home, have a nice hot shower, and sleep in my bed! When we
got to the airport, however, our plane was ten hours late. So, on our last night in Europe, we slept
in the airport. Well, at least I can say it was a “budget trip.”
