    Camino Ingles (+Finisterre): 8 Days | 214km/134mi (YouTube video)

    Hi fellow pilgrims! Thought I'd share my most recent Camino trip (Camino Ingles + Camino Finisterre) in June 2023. It was very peaceful, serene, and beautiful. Lots of nature and forests. No crowds. Of course, you meet other pilgrims...but it's a small, intimate group that you get to meet...

    Camino Portugués Video: Porto to Santiago 2022 | 11 Days in 20 Minutes

    Thanks Bala! I just replied to Barbie about making the switch to the central route. It's possible though a lot of road walking. You could also take the bus. But I wanted to see both the coastal & central routes. In this Day 2 Vlog, you can see where I made the turn (in Vila do Conde) and how...

    Camino Portugués Video: Porto to Santiago 2022 | 11 Days in 20 Minutes

    Hi Barbie - you're welcome! The only plan I had was to get to Porto and start with the coastal route (it's more beautiful)...and then I just "followed my heart/intuition" you could say. The coastal route is BEAUTIFUL, but I didn't meet as many pilgrims...and I wanted a more intimate pilgrim...

    Camino Frances Video: 33 Days in 16 Minutes | September 2019

    Wow more than 30 years. I can imagine how much has changed...especially with the internet and social medi and media popularizing it. I arrived alone in St. Jean and met a bunch of people on the way who I eventually walked with till Santiago. But September is quite busy, especially in St. Jean...

    Camino Frances Video: 33 Days in 16 Minutes | September 2019

    Thanks so much =) I did not use a gimbal stabilizer, but the video stabilization in smartphones nowadays is pretty top-notch. I used an iPhone 7 and 2 hands. I also brought my Sony A7iii but didn't end up using it at all for video. There's so much you can do with smartphones nowadays!

    Thanks! I used my smartphone (iPhone 7) and edited it with my Ipad using the LumaFusion app. Yes we were there as well with the I'll Push You crew! It was so inspiring =)
