Remember that Geography teacher who went awol on the schooltrip to India?!!
This gentleman is on his final Gapyear(which may last for several).
His name is SundaJi, and after a career in government service, he has bid his family farewell and has headed orf for the life of a mendicant, a pilgrim, heading away from the familiar with all that is essential with him-which ain't much as you can see!
Whatever else he does, probably visiting holy places all over, relying on charity, dharmsalas, and his wits, perhaps taking over some abandoned shrine, he'd hope to end his days cremated on the banks of the Holy Ganges and shrug off this mortal toil and risk being reincarnated as a traffic warden-l and head straight for Nirvana.
In the West, our final days are more often spent watching the telly. Make sure you don't miss your chance for and Adventure, preferably before Uni, there'll never be a better time, sadly debts and obligations will increase with the years and it'll become more and more difficult for you to take your hand out of the tiger's mouth and take much time for yourself ever again...
