    Miles to Go - A song about my Camino.

    I walked the Camino in 2015. It was a life-changing experience. Somewhere along the way, journal entries became song lyrics. I put together a band when I got home. The audio is from a live performance and the photos are my favorites from the trip. I'm planning another Camino next summer...

    Pack review and a last minute question..

    Pano - I have a 2'x3' chamois in my pack. It's worked really well for me on backpacking trips, but it's nothing I could use wrap around myself. I assumed that I would be changing in a shower stall, whats the usual routing for showering / changing clothes on the Camino? I never thought about...

    I am watching IT again :) THE WAY

    The film was my introduction to the Camino. I've seen it more times than I'd like to admit. When needing a little escape, I'll go out on a training hike and put the soundtrack on my ipod. 40 sleeps to go!

    Trekking Poles

    I've found on long distances with a light pack the trekking poles really reduce back, shoulder, and knee fatigue at the end of the day. I never really needed them, but I feel 10 times better at the end of the day with them. I invested in a pair of Black Diamond carbon Z’s. They are amazingly...

    Class of 2015

    I’ll be walking SJPDP to SdC starting in late June! My wife will be joining me for the last 100km. I had an amazing experience walking 150km on the Jacobsweg trail from Salzburg two years ago. It was a week that changed my life, I’ve been planning for the CF ever since! Buen Camino!
