Reflections of a secular "pilgrim"
No one knows this for sure... Many Christian shrines are built or have borrowed and adapted to old pre- Christian sites, so why not paths too?

Reflections of a secular "pilgrim"
I like your take on this. The 'divine' or whatever this means to folk takes many forms. For me it's all about light and consciousness and I am inspired by the Norse myths because they highlight an underlying truth if you can unpick the interpretations.

Martin and Emilio got me started
Hi Janet, Wasn't it lovely? Hold on to that passion. I'm sure you know it'll be difficult, but then if it were easy, what would be the point?

Hello from Poppy
Hi Rebekah, Thanks for that and your kind offer! I have still a lot to do in Scandinavia yet before I migrate south, but I'll probably end up in the Canaries one day due to the cost of fuel bills in the North. However, for the next ten years of my life... God willing... I want to walk...- VikingQueen

Hello Ian, Thanks for your response! Yes, I will try to live the dream for what else makes sense?
