Deslocar-se
Don't be intimidated, try the electric scooters.
Download the apps onto your phone ahead of time and input your credit card information (Bird, Lime, Lyft). To ride, open the app, scan the qvc code on the scooter handlebars with your phone and away you go. They are pretty intuitive to ride. Use the bike lanes, not the sidewalk.
