I did the Frances 6 years ago when I turned 50. I enjoyed it thoroughly but am looking for a more contemplative experience for the next one. Currently feeling called to do the walk from Málaga through Baena, Córdoba, join the VdlP and then on to Santiago via the Sanabrés. I'm trying to decide...
Hello,
I'm trying to watch your video from the US and it is blocked because of copyright reasons. Do you have any other manner to access it other than youtube?

I too was hoping to walk coast to coast – Cadiz to Finisterre. However, I also want to do at least...
Bsewall thank you so much for the poem. I find it very inspiring. I felt called to do the French Way when I turned 50 and had an amazing experience. After that wonderful adventure I am even more excited about doing the VdlP next year.
I have some trepidation about the lack of other pilgrims...
Hi Donna, yes, reading the posts about the robbery made me nervous and got me started posting/pre-planning.
I look forward to following your posts along the route!
Buen Camino Peregrina!
