It was on board on the sea between Belfast to Glasgow when I felt I was really alienated from what I am. I was travelling all around the world without any fixed aim, just I was deeply moved to the eagerness of I want to see something.
At age 29 I quitted my teaching job (later resumed though) and I started travelling all around the world. It took 4 months to complete anyway it was on my way back to England from Northern Ireland through Scotland when I wondered what I was doing. It was pointless, meaningless, without any destination I was just moving incessantly as I wished.
I was about to be unable to lose myself when I was on board -Strainer or something, the name of the line.
One Swiss came to me and talked to me. Thanks to him I was able to spend a meaningful voyage for five or six hours. I found myself not alone even in the midst of solitude on board.
