    My Super-Random Non-Camino Camino

    Hello pilgrims - and those who don't identify as pilgrims. I just wanted to update you on my Camino Non-Camino. Because honestly I thought I was going to do some official route - first I thought of doing the Primitivo. But I ended up in León instead (I took the train there). And then a voice in...

    LIVE from the Camino Need help sending some items "backwards"!

    Hi peregrin@s! Why oh why do I always hit "save" before I've even written anything? I'm near León, walking towards the Pyrenees. It's very likely :P that I'll take the Camino from Mansilla to Cistierna and do the Olvidado in reverse, which means that I'll be seeing you guys who are on it right...

    Looking for Outdoor Stores in Galicia & Portugal?

    So I went to entrepicos and it looks good, but I forgot the siesta. They close at 13 and open at 17. Now I'm stuck here waiting... Derp Update: the store owner is awesome and let me in outside opening times. But the store is super-supertiny. Almost nothing there. Anti-mosquito spray, couple of...

    Looking for Outdoor Stores in Galicia & Portugal?

    I am sorry Camino Friends Lol :P I didn't mean to offend anyone. For me"guys" just is a friendly way to refer to acquaintances that I like. Awesome, also in Ourense there is a store called Entrepicos (at the Praza das Damas next to the cathedral). I'm going there now and will report back :P...

    Anyone starting in June?

    Awesome, then the community I am looking for is coming to me :P No, not specific to Camino forums. I've been here a while though and it would be cool to meet some of you. If I can get myself some new equipment, I'll start from Oviedo either tomorrow or the second. Whoo! Looking forward to it.

    Anyone starting in June?

    Hi guys, I'm traveling back from Portugal to Galicia tomorrow. I want to have a "community" experience, doesn't matter where, but I was thinking of hiking the Primitivo. Any of you starting this coming week? Gwaihir

    Looking for Outdoor Stores in Galicia & Portugal?

    Hey caminantes, qué tal. It's been ages since I was really active here, but anyway I'm back on the Camino (sort of). To be honest my thing now is more traveling randomly and sometimes I walk bits and etapas of the Camino in between. The Portugal sun and work I did for a project here has...

    Input for Rewilding Business

    It´s just a name. It is meant to describe a set of practices that can help people with topics specifically tied into "nature", "inner nature", and a level of transformation that includes both ourselves and the planet. As such I do not view it as a clique, as something non-ordinary, or as an...

    Input for Rewilding Business

    For people who love oversight (and myself), I have put "Reasons to ReWild" in a bit of a list. These are great ideas and you have definitely given me some new ones. Thank you for the inspiration so far! Being Grounded: recharging yourself by being in close contact with the Earth for prolonged...

    Input for Rewilding Business

    I think pretty much anyone would go out of business that way haha! My businessplan is more focused on bushcrafting, methods to become more confident by showing people they can withstand natural things etc. I´m not going to post the entire plan on here but you get the idea. No insanity stuff...

    Input for Rewilding Business

    Hi Peregrinos! As some of you may know, I found my calling after the Camino. I´m now resolved to build a business around "ReWilding". ReWilding is about "undomesticating our bodies and minds", and the idea is that people have domesticated themselves to the degree of becoming completely...

    Ok I´m home, I want to leave.

    I ended up going to Ireland for a while, not very long though, because of Corona ;-) The experience was very valuable, I was confronted with myself, I learned about frugality and how maybe comfort sometimes is good, and I also learned about being part of someone´s family, me being a complete...

    Post-Camino Callings

    Figured I might update. I´ve enrolled in theology at the university. I encountered a bit of red tape and it might take a little bit longer to admit me - but generally my papers are fine and I hope I can start in September. Unfortunately the hospitalero who tried to convince me to become a...

    Pilgrim House re-opening Monday August 17

    Whoo-hoo! Can´t come this year but I´m glad anyway.

    I miss you guys

    I haven´t actually met any of you, but I miss you anyway. I hesitated to get the forum patch but the postage was too expensive. Even so you could have easily recognized me. I was the one with the wild hermit look who carried a way-too-long-staff. Whenever I walked past tourists they would...

    Post-Camino Callings

    :D These reactions have made me really cheerful. I´m really happy there is more people here with a similar calling. I would love to combine several things at the same time. I don´t think I could promise to live my entire life in isolation - that´s what I like about friars, how they go out...

    Post-Camino Callings

    Thank you, I agree. I´ve already asked to stay in a monastery for a few days to see whether it would suit me (however those things are interrupted by Corona like everything else!). That sounds interesting Bob. It´s one of the things I might like to do if such an opportunity arises. I speak...

    Post-Camino Callings

    Hi again Peregrinos. It´s always good to return here and know that there is a "Camino World" despite the situation. In January I went abroad to do volunteer work for a while. It was fine but it did not last long. I had kind of overestimated myself as the Camino made me feel like Superman. But...

    Ok I´m home, I want to leave.

    I just want to also add also that I do not "hate" where I live. I don´t believe I used that word in either of my posts. I mentioned dislike, but hey there is a lot of maneuvering space between hate and dislike. This is probably a part of it. My parents were not particularly "Dutch". I think...
