I just finished my first camino yesterday. I asked a lot of question during this journey, but at the end, I let things go as they were intended.

Met a lot of people, made some new friends! When I got in to Santiago, everyone I met but not spoken to on the road became brothers and sisters. Congrats and hand shakes all around. Hugs and smiles all around.

This was one experience I was clearly over thinking before I started, and now that I finished, I sit here in bed wondering what is next!
Thank you everyone, I will be looking forward to my next camino, whenever it is in the future!

After my first Camino (CF) I was convinced that my long distance walking days were over. Within two months I was starting to plan my next walk. As you have experienced, the Camino and the people you meet get in your blood/mind. It is the best kind of addiction.

Congratulations, @Warge! Well done.

And now you know for yourself. Next time you find yourself overthinking, hopefully you will remember that letting go. Ahhhhh! Such a relief.
