    Post-Camino withdrawal symptoms / blues

    Actually Stefania, I’m only 4 days ahead of you if you start on May 18th. I’ll walk out of SJPdP on May 14th. I’m older than dirt and am on the robust side, so I am pretty slow. So, you may very well catch up and overtake me. I am planning on walking into SDC on June 25. After a days rest...

    Post-Camino withdrawal symptoms / blues

    Kris, I find myself feeling the same way..reading that pilgrims are planning to start in the fall and here I am, just 5 days from departure for Spain and 9 days from starting my walk. It’s here too soon and even though I’m taking 6 weeks to complete it..well, I won’t go there...I just won’t...

    Post-Camino withdrawal symptoms / blues

    When I returned from my first Camino in 2012, I was really confused! Transitioning back into “normal” life was really difficult and I had no one to talk to abut it. I didn’t know about the “Post Camino Blues” syndrome. Friends were beginning to roll their eyes and family kinda said “yeah...

    Dreaming while on the Camino

    Kanga, I have to agree with you on Shirley MacClaine’s book. My dreams came after the Camino. Every morning for weeks. You know that twilight time between sleep and awakening...I’d be dreaming about where I’d to be that day, how far I’d walk, what I would encounter and then I’d open my eyes...

    The Folks Around There.

    Oh Thank Heaven! I was holding my breath and could feel the sense of “impending doom” when you realized your wallet was missing, followed by the tidal wave of relief that came next when the alberque owner shouted out the good news. Wonderful story, Gerardcarey. I”ll look for the next...

    Why mention miles when Europe uses km's ?

    In 2012, I spent 3 weeks walking the Camino. During the first week, I was busy converting kilometers into miles....the second week, I didn’t convert kilometers into miles...I walked kilometers....the third week, I didn’t keep track of kilometers...I just walked the distance I walked. This...

    Photos I wish I had taken on my camino

    Jim, you are absolutely correct about other pilgrims sharing photos...now I have some wonderful photos seen from a different perspective than mine and I value each and every one. Thank you Linda., FR. Jeffery and Pam.

    Photos I wish I had taken on my camino

    Thank you for posting this! It serves as a reminder to be in the moment and not to miss anything. The good thing is you have those images in your memory and in your heart forever. I lost an SD card with 700 photos in Logrono...all from my packing my backpack, waiting at the airport in...

    Travel Insurance?

    I used one in 2012 when I was on Camino with you. I think it was Travelex, but not sure. Cost was $350, so it was spendy, but the coverage was good for just about every contingency. I’ll buy some again, but don’t think I”ll use the same company and won’t pay as much (I hope). Just feel...

    I would like to start a Blog for my Camino.

    I am thinking about doing a blog also...the thing that makes me hesitate is do I want to take my smart phone with me. I've had Wordpress recommended to me. So, I may try it. If you start one, Ed, share which site you use and how it works for you. I'll be interested. Maybe we'll meet up...

    BBC "Pilgrimage With Simon Reeve"

    Hi Mark, it screened in Manitoba a week ago. Go to the website www.caminodocumentary.org. There is a lot of information and especially watch the director's message. Tatiana was amazing...with her 3 year old son in a stroller!
