Writing exercise

I went to Phuket for company outing last week and this was 2nd time I went to Thailand. I didn’t arrange any schedule and just strolled outside. But our house is on the hill which is far away from the downtown and we need to call the taxi if we want to go out. I like the exciting activities but this time I didn’t play anyone because I read an acritical before. That article talks about the safety of Thailand travel. Due to the lack of management, a lot of accidents happened before. Last year 47 Chinese people dead in Phuket because 2 ships sink.
