Todd: Aaron, sometimes I hear from Australians, the term, have a walk-about, or walk-about!
Aaron: A walk-about is an aboriginal 1 word. It basically 2, means an aboriginal boy, when he is growing up goes for a long walk, maybe for twelve months, and he doesn't see his family and he has to live off the land.
