This is it! I made my lasts steps on my Camino Frances 2016. And what an amazing experience! I never could expected what it gave me! I'm blessed that I met so many friends, had such good conversations with them. We laughed, we cried, we eat, we drink. We we're sharing our stories. We helped and we learned from each other. There were no worries if I told I would walk alone for a while. There was so much respect between the peregrino's. I think I was lucky. Spoke to locals, learned a bit of spanish and the locals preciated that. Now I am gonna write my story again incl the pics I made. It was for me a lifetime changing moment....I will be back. Thats for sure! Thanks all for helping me. Buen Camino!
