The floor and walls are wooden and polished to a shine. Golden meditating statues line the walls, the air is cool and many monks sit still with their eyes closed on mats on the ground. In the far center of the room there is a giant golden Buddha towering over everyone in its pedestal.

I work at the village school. I teach all the children from the ages of 3 to 13. Without me they wouldn't receive a decent education. I am very important in my village.
Yes, it is particularly when you spent your day teaching the village children. Were are you headed after this traveler? Wherever the wind takes me. I got a plenty of money so I have the freedom to just try anything really.  Must be nice. I sometimes dream about setting off and seeing the world. The village would crumble without me though. I have to stay. Surely someone could take your spot though?  These kids wouldn't get a decent education without me. A village this size is fortunate to even have a teacher, let alone one with my credentials. That seems terrible. To be chained to one place. I could never.  Some of us don't have the luxury of wandering aimlessly and just seeing the world. We have to stay in one place and shape it. I could never... That's very unfathomable for me. Shaping young minds is rewarding. Just imagine what you could have grown up to be if you had an exemplary teacher like me when you were a kid. I would be poor, and miserable.  You might actually have accomplished something by now. I make 6 figures monthly from my laptop drop shipping products from Ali-express. I've given back to my community monthly, and even support a few local churches back home. I believe I've accomplished something.
