The Tranquilo Traveler
The Tranquilo Traveler is a celebration of voluntourism, slow travel, and other interesting ways to see the world. Travel writer and award- winning Moon Handbooks author Joshua Berman created The Tranquilo Travel as a resource for world trippers and international volunteers, a window to the author’s travels in Nicaragua, Belize, and beyond, and an update of his books and articles.
Next up, on the Rawalpindi runway…
Joshua is cool and casual in his new, custom-tailored shulwar kameez, 100 percent cotton with Chinaman collar and straight cut flaps; design and fitting by Mr. Shan-e-Ellahi Sheikh, on Mall Road, all for a cool 800 rupias. Yes, Joshua shakes his little tush on the catwalk to a quwali rhythm that says, “asaalam aleikum, baby.”

I studied at Gordon College during 1957-59. At that time Mr Daskawie was the principal of the college and, I think, Dr R.R. Stewart was the vice-principal. I remember Dr Stewart as a short man with grey hair, sometimes moving around on his bike. He was a soft-spoken man. Some of my teachers I met there have had a lasting effect on my educational career. I would like to mention the names of Yusuf Jalil, Daniel, Rais Ahmad Khan, Nasrullah, Yunus Masih, Xavier, Siddiq Cheema. They were great teachers and I have never seen a place as Gordon College was again anywhere in Europe.
I shall be much obliged to anyone who can give me some information on any of the teachers I mentioned in my earlier comment. I can be contacted at my Website: http://nasir-khan.blogspot.com) or kh888n at hotmail dot com
