- Time of past OR future Camino
- Many in the past and, God willing; more to come
I’m not a philosopher - nor would I say I’m especially religious. (Baptised into the Church of England, therefore belief in God optional)
I have ‘camino’d four times so far and intend to carry on twice each year.
I set out as a walker - but always find there is something ‘other’ which I feel after a few days. Whether it’s sense of purpose, the feeling that countless others have passed this way before me, or the common feeling of walking with a slowly-changing familiar group of people, I don’t know.
I’d be interested to hear from others who would not claim religious pilgrimage as having been their primary motivation for embarking on the journey. Did it just feel like a series of village to village day-walks through one of the most developed countries on the planet, or something more?
