Hey, friends! glad to be checking in and saying hi. It's been a long six years since I've been on Camino, and wow, I have missed it. 2020 was a sh*t show, 2021 was a cancer year, and 2022 was kind of messed up too, lol. BUT! there's always a happy ending if we look for it.
In 2022, I began writing professionally--in earnest--and I am now a publisher and doing very well. I'm not rolling in the dough, but I'm doing well enough so that I am now able to tear away and put myself in Porto. And I am excited, but a bit apprehensive!
I can't get COVID---I've had it, and it didn't go well, so I'm planning on a long flight with a mask on! And that's okay. It will make taking it off all the sweeter.
I'll fly into Porto and spend a night, perhaps two--as who needs to rush, right?--and then, I'll be pointing myself north---or who knows? I may change course and go to Lisbon and look around.
I've already got three Caminos under my belt, and know all about the long walks--which I love--but this time, I have to be a bit more gentle with myself.
Owing to the little health issue, I get worn out around mid day, so I'm really hoping I'll be able to find hotel rooms and crash around 2 PM each day.
My friend is walking the same route about a month earlier, and has given me his list of hotels. I know that will be helpful. Also, is it 'somewhat' easy to get transportation help if I need it? I am going to do what I can, but (cancer exhaustion still kicks my backside on occasion).
Love to all of you, my friends!
