Wanderer

At the age of seventeen, the Wanderer leaves Scotland to discover the world and himself. He passes through seven European states, sleeping where he can, learning what he will, before returning home to his own people. However, it is seventeen years later that the Wanderer finally returns to his native city for good. He wishes to re-establish contact with his former childhood friend and arranges to meet him in a bistro in the most bohemian part of the city.
