Only when I got to Porto do I start to encounter other pilgrims along the lesser traveled Portuguese Route in February.
Part literate travel guide - part reflective memoir a "soothing and satisfying read".
A Zen approach to Christianities' most important pilgrimage.
Amazon Review of "Portuguese Camino - In Search of the Infinite Moment"
5.0 out of 5 stars High literary quality, a delight to read

Travel memoirs are my favorite reading nowadays, and when I read this I hit the jackpot. There are detailed descriptions of great meals and other tourist stuff, interspersed with memories of the personal struggles that motivated the author to make the pilgrimage. This book is one of the best of the genre because the author is intelligent and real, in addition to being a terrific writer. It was a plus for me that the author is a lapsed rather than practicing Catholic. More accessible to me as an agnostic.
