Saw a youngster at heart, on vacation! (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

away

'on vacation' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'saw a youngster at heart' is the wordplay.
'at heart' indicates a hidden word (letters hidden in the heart of the clue).
'AWAY' is hidden within 'saw a youngster'.

(Other definitions for away that I've seen before include "Away in the distance" , "travelling" , "Distant or not present" , "Out of town" , "See 1" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
