    From Cadiz to Santiago

    Buen camino @WalkingInGers !Will you be walking all the way to Santiago de Compostela? I walked from Cadiz to SdC in autumn/winter 2009 . It took me 59 days or so. I started 18 October and it was still very hot at that time (30 degrees). There were incessant winds after Merida and a couple...

    Where do ( did ) you walk locally in 2024?

    I saw a Kererū in it's natural habitat once (as opposed to in old paintings and stuffed toy ones) whilst tramping the Abel Tasman Inland Track, between Moa Park shelter and Castle hut. The Kererū was so plump and slow in flight that I reckon if I'd had a butterfly net I could have caught it just...

    Notre Dame - group walking pilgrimages. July to September.

    How exciting! One of the trails to Notre Dame begins in Quimper. I've been dreaming of walking to Quimper for years, in honour of a friend who has an armoire full of old Quimper faience...which I use to celebrate my arrival whenever I am chez lui! Quimper à Notre Dame here I come...svp svp svp...

    Any risk of walking without insoles?

    Hi @Johnnnyk One day I set off on a long hike in boots too small. They seemed perfect for what I planned when I purchased them, the correct size and flexible. But with a heavy pack on my back and Superfeet insoles added my feet slid forward and the toes hit the ends and bruised. So, I cut...

    New Camino Movie -The Way My Way - World Premiere

    I don't know if it's been translated yet. Anthropologist, Nancy L. Frey's book 'Pilgrims Stories' was translated into Korean, however. Here is what she has to say about "The Rise of Korean Pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago"...

    Pilgrim found walking in wrong direction on AP-1 highway

    Hi @Bradypus, that reminds me of a curious story I heard one day in Italy... At about 3 AM one morning I was awoken by 'fireworks' exploding in my left eye. Frantic, I set off in the dark following steamy mosquito infested paths through the rice paddies of the Po valley. Late morning I arrived...

    New Camino Movie -The Way My Way - World Premiere

    Hi there. In winter 2012/13, in an old albergue in San Pedro de Tamel, Portugal I met a Korean publisher who said that 17 years earlier, in 1995 he had published the very first book on Santiago de Compostela written in Korean. I didn't jot down the author's name, just that it was by a woman...

    3 languages on VdlP stone pillars
