So I am back in Madrid returning home 20 days earlier than planned.
The reason is less important then how I feel about it...disappointed a bit numb and at the same time glad to go home.
I know there is always a next time...maybe. 2021...seems reasonable. Ultreia
Yes I know ...I worked at the pilgrims office the first 2 weeks in July. I choose 2021 because of the Holy year...I would like to walk through the door...Hola @IngridF , bummer. Yes ending ones Camino with the job not finished is never fun. The disappointment will eventually subside. As for returning in 2021, well as a TV commercial use to say "please consider" - 2021 is a Holy Year (ie St James day 25 July falls on a Sunday), so based on all the talk it the Camino Frances will be totally over crowded. So if you can find an alternate year that would be my suggestion. Oh BTW - you can resume your camino from the point were you finished this time - just be sure to get a stamp in your credenzial from this point. Buen Camino!
I know how you feel...Can imagine how you feel. Just had to stop Le Puy route after 8 days of the 21 days planned. Feeling grumpy and miserable and "unfinished" ..back in New Zealand in rainy winter. Could not go back to work as temp in place and have wasted 3 weeks of valuable annual leave. I am spitting with frustration.
Urgh, so sorry. I for once had 7 weeks, and was forced home with a still bummed knee after 3 weeks.Can imagine how you feel. Just had to stop Le Puy route after 8 days of the 21 days planned.

And the privilege was mine...I wonder how young Alex has faired XoxoSo sorry to hear this news Ingrid. You have done an INCREDIBLE amount of good while on your camino this year - you have been intrepid, you have put emotional and soul pain from injury in the past, IN THE PAST, and you have gone out on a limb to help pilgrims - at the Pilgrims Office, at Grado and out on those ancient and magical paths themselves - for example, young Alex at Sahagun.
It was a pleasure and a privilege to have the time walking with you from Moratinos to Leon - these are treasured memories Ingrid.
With love -

Cheers Ingrid - pilgrim sisters that we are! Hmmm - I hope young Alex had a wonderful camino, that he gained insights and that his time in London with the acting classes is going tremendously. He is indeed a very special young man.Much love back

Your journey ended when it was supposed to end. There is a higher power guiding our actions. The same power which will guide you to return if that is willed.So I am back in Madrid returning home 20 days earlier than planned.
