I would probably write something like, "I wouldn't approach the flower seller closer than 200 meters, I wouldn't turn my back to her, I would carefully walk around her, paying close attention to her and looking for traps everywhere. At the first opportunity, I would hide in the bushes and run away as far as possible."
