New Blog - Passport to Purgatory

[zip62]

On Saturday I will start my Camino in Pamplona.

I will be accompanied by my eldest son Tom. The focus of the blog will be on my conviction that walking in general and walking the Camino in particular is beneficial to maintaining good mental health. For some people walking the Camino can help the recovery from mental illness and Im sure it can also help others maintain a good level of mental health.

I will do my best to describe beautiful landscapes - but I am no Thomas Hardy
I will commernt on spiritual matters - but I am no Paulo Coelho

I started writing my blog two weeks ago and I am now getting almost 200 hits a day

I am open and honest about my mental health condition and i frequenyly use humour. i acknowledge that British humour is not too everyone taste.

This is not a story of misery and dipair but one of hope and optimism. It is about my struggle manage my condition, the relationship I have with my family, and the relationship that i will develop with the community of pilgrims that will walk alongside me on the way to Santiago

I would be grateful if you could take the time to check out the blog
