Awry
My first trip abroad
When I first went to Nicaragua, the mother of a girlfriend of my daughter got me to go to Nicaragua. She is Nicaraguan and she told me that we could go to buy shoes and clothes to sell them in our country, some days later, I went to Nicaragua with Isela and her husband because her husband had to renew his passport, the idea was to travel one day, buy the next day and return to the third day. The first day was very interesting, we visited Granada and enjoyed the trip and the culture, we also traveled in a float around the place. The next day we went to buy and everything was fine until we discovered that day was the day of death in Nicaragua, according to Isela, that day was never celebrated in the country, but this year they decided to celebrate it. All the government buildings were closed, so Isela's husband could not renew his passport, he had to wait until the next day and I could not wait because my son was a baby. I was worried because I didn't have idea what to do, so they decided that the best option was that I should take the bus to Costa Rica the next day in the morning, for that I had to stay in the hotel of Tica Bus. In that way they could not only go to visit their family but also stay some more days in Nicaragua, but I had to travel with the backpack full of the things they bought because according with them I could pay for entrust and pass the merchandise. Isela gave me $75 dolars to pay; however, the problem was when I asked about the entrust, and someone in the reception told me they don't work with entrus and it was better if I talk with the bus driver because they used to pass backpacks.
Some time later, I was in my room when the bus driver arrived to see the merchandise, I explained my situation and he told me that he could pass Isela's backpacks and mine, but that I had to pay him $ 150 each, in that. At the time I was desperate because I did not have enough money, even if I paid a backpack I did not have money for lunch, maybe just for a coffee. In the end he accepted $ 150 for both and with the warning that I could not do or say anything about Backpacks, well, I accepted and the next day I understood why. When we were on the border and everyone had to show their luggage, I could see how one of the backpacks was deposited in a garbage can just to hide it from the police of the other I never knew where they hid it. I remember that I felt pale, a lady had me tell her about my backpack, but I only could make up a different version hoping she believed in me. Nobody except the lady notice that I hadn't backpack. Fortunately I could have both backpacks save in Costa Rica, finally after twelve hours traveling I arrived to my house and I could have lunch when I told my husband about the hard situation I lived he made me take a spa appointment to relax.

Grammar is the basis of English. Many people believe that grammar is not important, but the reality is different. Speaking English is very important to know the grammatical structures that we have to use when we speak, especially if we want to have good communication, grammar helps students to increase knowledge and vocabulary, there are many people who speak English, but learned in their jobs or alone without a guide, and it is very easy to discover when they write or speak, the errors they have due to lack or grammar in their learning.
That is why grammar is the basis of English.
