Well, I'm going to tell you about the taxi I took that broke down on my trip to Almaty. That day, I was going to Almaty city, the second capital of our country and the biggest city in my country. From my city to Almaty, it took two days to go by car. So, we decided to take a taxi with my friends. It happened two years ago. My friends and I went there. And you know what happened? In the middle of our trip, our car broke down. Firstly, I think we hadn't checked the petrol before going on the road. Secondly, I think the lack of maintenance was a problem. The condition of the taxi was really poor. Finally, we could ask for help from a stranger who was passing by, and he helped us, fortunately. In the end, we successfully made it to another city and had fun.
