I'm pretty sure "walkabout" is the wrong terminology, but it always struck me as something similar to the aboriginal right of passage. Not enough cultures have something like this. I think I would have benefited from doing something like that prior to going to college out of state. Instead my college experience was my walkabout and as such, I was pretty un-hinged. It wasn't the best mental state for productivity.

It looks like he is directing you in the photo, "so, you head down Front street, then take a left at the Rainbow..."

You look like a baby.

This weekend is my 20th HS reunion and everyone is posting old photos on FB. Look at me below, I was just a baby.

"Vision quest" is the usual NA term.

If you are single, and would like to mingle, bring birth control. My 10th and 20th reunions were big "I wish I did this in high school" conventions. Have fun!

I ended up with a long term GF out of the 10th. The next morning she asked me out on a date and said said You wear a tux and I will be the black chick wearing a long white dress. lol It was great.
