- Time of past OR future Camino
- 2019
We knew very little about the Camino Francés when we set out. in fact we'd never heard of it until a friend came back from Spain with fabulous stories of walking a pilgrimage in Spain. But six months later, in the autumn of 2005, inspired by Robert’s stories and in need of respite from the clamour of our lives, we walked out of St Jean Pied de Port on a pilgrimage to the holy city of Santiago de Compostela.
A candle, lit in the cathedral in Santiago; a hand placed on the same marble column that pilgrims have placed their hand on for centuries; a relic, a piece of the true cross (plastic or otherwise); and that we travel well together. These were the entreaties from friends we carried with us as we walked across northern Spain.
If you're curious about what it was like to walk the Camino in 2005, take a look at our story created from our diary and photographs from 30 extraordinary days on the Camino Francés.
