I had my first Camino dream!

Time of past OR future Camino
May 2024
We were starting our walk, as a group, inside a cathedral. We toured the basement area and then went to an upper level where we were to eat a vegetarian meal before starting out on the walk. Pretty basic as far as dreams go, but I was tickled when I woke up that in my dream I noticed yellow arrows and my backpack felt good on my back. :) Anyone want to share a dream they've had of the Camino?

I had one particularly vivid dream while I was on the camino - that I knew I was about to drown and I was completely calm and accepting of it. I'd much prefer to dream about walking;-)
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Came home from Santiago last weekend. Most nights I’ve woken during the night feeling disoriented and thinking that I am still on the Camino. Also, lots of dreams about leaving my wallet in albergues and worrying about it being stolen. Very strange.
 
When I have trouble falling asleep, and before my anti-anxiety medication kicks in, I mentally place myself departing an albergue or hostal on Camino. Instead of counting sheep, per se, I count steps, observations, and vivid memories of Caminos past. It never fails. I am sound asleep within 10 minutes.

I call it going to my "Happy place."

Hope this helps,

Tom
