If I hadn't arrived late , I wouldn't have started crying. If I hadn't started crying, that woman wouldn't have come near me. If she hadn't come near me, she wouldn't have asked me how I felt. If she hadn't asked me how I felt, I wouldn't have told her that I was running late to my sister's wedding. If I hadn't told her I was running late to my sister's wedding, she wouldn´t have offered to give me a ride. If she hadn't given me a ride, she wouldn't have told me about the travel agency she worked at. If she hadn't told me about her job at the travel agency, I wouldn't have told her I love travelling. If I hadn't told her I love travelling, she wouldn't have offered me a job. If she hadn't offered me that job I wouldn't be travelling around the world with my expenses paid! I'm definitely lucky I was late that day! ;

If I hadn't missed the bus, I wouldn't have walked into the mall. If I hadn't walked into the mall, I wouldn't have bought tickets to the cinema. If I hadn't bought tickets to the cinema, I wouldn't have watched Hamilton. If I hadn't watched Hamilton, I wouldn't have learnt American history. If I hadn't learnt American history, I wouldn't have passed my Geography & Culture exams. If I hadn't passed my Geography & Culture exams, I would have cried my eyes out. If I had cried my eyes out, I wouldn't have had the time to study for my Language finals.

How I ended up studying here

If I hadn't told my friend that I didn't want to became a translator, she wouldn't have told me about JVG. If she hadn't told me about JVG, I wouldn't have told my aunt about it. If I hadn't told her about it, she wouldn't have told me her experience here. If she hadn't told me her experience here, I wouldn't have ended up studying here. If I hadn't ended up studying here, I would have been enjoying my free time. If I had been enjoying my free time, I would have been spending my money on speciality coffee.

From rags to riches

If I hadn't come to Buenos Aires, I wouldn’t have studied at the TTC. If I hadn't studied at the TTC, I wouldn’t have gone to the exchange program. If I hadn't gone to that exchangw program, I wouldn’t have found a job at Cambridge. If I hadn't found that job at Cambridge, I wouldn’t be making a lot of money. If I weren't making a lot of money, I would still be sleeping on the streets.

Tripping

If i hadn't been in a hurry that day, I wouldn't have tripped. If I hadn't tripped, I wouldn't have met you. If I hadn't met you, we wouldn't have got to know each other. If we hadn't got to know each other, we wouldn't be marrying tonight. How grateful I am for having tripped with you that day
