    Minor Glitch Hopefully - Asking for Prayers

    Returning & Friendships

    Beautiful metaphor! The flower I met on the camino 5 years ago, turned out to be a beautiful rose🙂 The camino has crawled under my skin and makes me long for the meseta, the duro,the cafe americano, the menu perigrino,the last kilometre before reaching the refugio after a 30 km tour, all that...

    camino love

    First Camino, throw some advice my way

    The camino gives you the opportunity living day by day with just a few nice simple obligations: eating, drinking,sleeping,visiting the restroom,and listening to what your body tells you. Don't think of the miles to go when you get tired. Fatigue is part of the camino which makes you aware of...
