Monk.
What a charming monk.
I'll remind you of an encounter with a monk that I had many months ago.
Today at the very same location, I was approached by a different man. "Excuse me," he said, "Are you coming from that direction?" He pointed down the street. I replied in the affirmative. "Well then you're qualified!" I laughed; he won me over. He was just asking for donations to feed someone or something, and even had a monk ID card. Coincidentally, my pockets were filled with jingling change because I was trying to shed a few pounds of coins that I had accumulated, and had no use for. I didn't really want to plop a pile of forty 5 pence coins down at the counter of Starbucks, so it all really worked out, didn't't?
So goodbye England.

Your adventure is coming to an end. You've made us proud, going off to a foreign land and experiencing new cultures. Very anti-Orin like to wander about. See you soon.
