It was Wednesday afternoon. I had two days off, Thursday and Friday. I had a busy week and now a long weekend ahead, I always had a thirst for adventure, so I came up with the idea of setting off for a journey. But my family couldn’t join me, because my mother had some household tasks, and my father had some writings to do. He is a translator. He is translating a new book about logic, and is so busy with that. These difficulties didn’t make me frustrated. I was so eager to put my idea into practice. I was stiff bored with routines.
