　　somewhere out of the ordinary. I took out

　　I had only been away from my

　　43

　　three days now, but there was an inner

　　44

　　going on inside of me. Part of me was homesick and doubting whether I

　　to myself and my family that I could do it by myself.

　　On the road, I met another

　　47

　　who was quite a bit older than I was. He had started his journey

　　48
