Come read my blog and join me on my Camino walk and talk, Walking Through the Ages, walkingthroughtheages.com. I celebrated my 70th birthday on my first Camino in 2016, returned for more in 2017 and now share my walking posts, a little philosophy, walking research, opinions and information and...
Thanks, @trecile. I knew you and a few other pilgrims live on this coast. It is spectacular. I’ve also hiked and biked on Oregon and Washington coasts and they are equally wonderful. It’s all worth a long visit and you’re so close. Buen Camino, Irene
Hello Pilgrims, I’m sharing my “Walking Through the Ages” blog post “Training for a Camino ...” about the walking trails and hostels on the spectacular Northern California coast. I know it’s a long way from Santiago, but if you live in California or nearby or come to visit, you won’t want to...
I'm so glad you shared how your Camino continued when you returned, @Jean Costa. I think the Camino, for each pilgrim, is so individual, so lasting, and I believe it doesn't depend on the kilometers or distance, but on the walk itself and how you experience and process this unique and spiritual...

Thank you, @TMcA, for your reply. I think each of us interprets "life-changing" in a personal way. Your memorable experience will probably stay with you for a long time. Some pilgrims have called that "life affirming" or life-resetting" or maybe "just" memorable. Your description may not be...
Thank you, @MichelleElynHogan. I love your sentiment, hoping "that for everyone on the Camino, they find what they are looking for, whatever their purpose may be." Buen Camino, Irene
Greetings, friends, Here's my blog, Walking Through the Ages and the many stories pilgrims from this forum shared to answer my question. Thank you all for taking the time to reply with your unique experiences. I had so many that I have printed excerpts of the longer responses and linked them to...
Thank you, @Sailor. You are so kind! I appreciate that you know blogging is somewhat of a passion, but the time and work to maintain indeed calls for some dedication and focus. Blogging on the road was almost second nature to the walk, but now my writer/poet/photographer self is being put to the...
