Abstract

My father encouraged me to go to Europe the summer before my last year in high school (at 16). He thought I was going to stay in a youth hostel in Geneva, but instead someone invited me to go with him to the Alps and he taught me how to hitch-hike by sticking out your thumb on the roadside. We hitched up into the Alps together. I hitched back by myself. Then hitched to southern France and up through Italy to Switzerland again and then around Switzerland. The most agentive-awakening 6 weeks of my life.
