    Favorite Pilgrimage Memoir *Not* Set on the Camino Francés?

    I walked the Via Francigena recently. I have an unconventional memoir: https://www.amazon.com/Between-Path-Way-1000-Journal/dp/B0CCCHQ5J2?tag=casaivar02-20

    Female lone traveller

    I walked this route alone-- was nervous at first but soon realized that I needn't be. I did not book ahead, but that was in October. May might be a bit more busy. You will likely get a feel for how much places are filling up in your first few days. It might be worth booking your first night or...

    Between the Path and the Way: A 1000 Mile Journal

    HI all, I am a writer from Montana, USA with a recent article in the Guardian about walking the Via Francigena: https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2023/sep/08/i-walked-1000-miles-alone-through-europe-and-learned-that-fear-is-the-price-of-freedom And a new book! Whimsical at first glance and...

    A solo American lady on the VF: Guardian article

    You answered some of my questions about the VF early on. So thank you for that. <3 I wrote this article after my walk on the CF: https://www.dorothyparkersashes.com/wanderlust/walk. That's when I got the "bug!" :D I have this project-- unannounced so far but getting to it. The whole time I...

    What is your ‘grail’ camino and why?

    Mine is the Via Francigena-- partly because I "failed" at it a year ago-- the abrupt transition from lockdown was too much for me and I bailed after walking Calais-Arras. But I have my flight booked and arrive back in Arras mid-August, and then all the way to Rome! There are more that I imagine...

    Poem: "What to Remember When Waking" (or walking)

    I first read the title of this poem as "walking," not waking. But then I realized that the two are very much the same. For me, anyway. I walk the VF Sud in a week. I already walk daily, and I've had all my gear ready forEVER, so I've been spending more time preparing for the internal camino...
