Sinopse
This not a travelogue of places, sights and sounds, hotels to stay or routes to take, it is in many ways a spiritual quest of being guided by a stranger in Singapore to travel to Nepal to meet, unknown to me at the time, 'The Little Buddha', Ossian MacLise. I was the iconic, itinerant hippie traveler of the sixties and early seventies, working for a year or two then traveling for a year before reaching England and working until I had enough money to go again. My first foray into travel was the great flower power hippie overland route from Australia to England. Traveling by bus, train or plane I slowly made my way through Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Burma, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Iran and Turkey then onto England before returning to Europe and home to Australia. Life on the road is exciting, exhausting and life changing, I recommend it for everyone before they settle into the world of marriage, children and a mortgage. The problem was I never settled and always remained the itinerant traveler, always looking for the next adventure. Ronald Ritter & Sussan Evermore
