The camino, from what I learned, I just returned, is an experience. Maybe it's not your vacation but it isn't a vacation. It's a full time job and its life. You wake up, pack, go, eat, unpack, sleep. If you wanted a vacation I would say Hawaii would be good for you. My advice is you should have...

Has anyone ever arrived at their destination, only to realize that the experience has only began? How many people turn around and walk in the opposite direction?
