    LIVE from the Camino Carrion..and finish

    I have questioned my beliefs everyday since St Jean...if not before. I am not a Christian. I have always believed or wanted to believe in something. God for want of a better word. The churches that have been open tell of a land that was once deep rooted in faith. The church bells have a sound...

    No Not quite sure what you mean and whom this is intended for. I have been listening for two weeks now. I stop all the time to just 'listen.'

    LIVE from the Camino 3rd day in the camino!

    Angel, listen to all the advice. I'm not far ahead of you and the only advice I would give is dont overdo it the first week. Set realistic distances however excited you feel... and if you walk with some fellow caminotti listen to your feet not them on how much further to push yourself. You are...

    I I will have to find that old man. thanks dave. I'm gonna find that old man... I had a bit of a wobble couple of hour ago.

    LIVE from the Camino When your Camino doesn't go 'as planned'

    Kat I have read all yours posts, pre camino and throughout. You have an infectious spirit(sorry) and have made me laugh out loud in the middle of a sombre spanish bar. You are with a load of us who have read and continue to read your posts. You are still on The Way with us. Normally I'm not a...

    LIVE from the Camino Meseta Magic... Derwen

    Having arrived in Carrion, footworn and tired I have a chance to reflect on the last few days. I stayed in the industrial outskirts of Burgos.. not pretty but they never are. I slogged it through Burgos at 6am. I know I missed wonderful things but I feel most content and safe on The Way. I...

    LIVE from the Camino Overwhelmed...Derwen

    I have only just managed to find time to read all the replys to my post a few days ago. i am completely gobsmacked. Today has been like a warm spring day. I left Villafranca at 6 and have arrived on the outskirts of burgos. Today has been one of the most important days of my camino. I walked...

    LIVE from the Camino Crisis...

    I have taken something from all of you today. The weather has been good Welsh weather and I just walked off the Brierly. I am in Villafranca. I feel I have broken through an old pattern. I have never completed a journey in my life. Today I did dig deeper and I feel more of a man than I have in...

    LIVE from the Camino Crisis...

    5.15am and I am going to walk. Thank you, each and every one of you for all your thoughts. I feel miserable, and foolish...but I'm going to walk. I usually crash about at times like this, dramatic and then regretful. So I will walk today and see where I go. Thanks again, Derwen

    LIVE from the Camino Crisis...

    I am lying in a hotel bed 9 days out from St Jean. I have reached San Domingo. It has been weird and wonderful. I am a bit of a loner normally; I have been talking to myself a lot as I go along. I wanted to go home 15 minutes out from St Jean. Then when I crossed the Pyrenees I felt great. In...
