    Do I really have to suffer to be a 'real' pilgrim? - A Camino enthusiast's dilemma

    As always, I do have to disqualify my post by stating that I am still a would-be pilgrim [hoping for next year, but my own health issues (my doctor is tracking down the cause of my anemia) and that of my walking partner's father (she had to relocate to take care of him) post-poned our pilgrimage...
