**This guy's story is from Lasse J. Lund (lasse.j.lund on IG, UnexpectedPaths on YT).**

He's a Norwegian (dual Finnish citizen) who says his hippie parents took him to India young. His mom & sister got arrested for overstaying visas when he was ~16, leaving him alone in Mumbai slums. He survived as a street kid/tourist guide for about a year until the Finnish embassy helped repatriate him at 17.

Now 33, he claims zero schooling or support from authorities back in Norway and is pushing for compensation while documenting his life. The "left alone at 10 by parents" caption is a bit off—the timeline in his own telling and discussions is more like taken there earlier and abandoned later.

Core events check out as his real personal account (he's been posting about it for a while, has an Indian accent from those years), but some details spark debate online about exactly how he got stuck so long without help. Not a total fabrication, but take the sensationalized version with a grain of salt.
