Time of past OR future Camino
May 10th, starting from Porto
Hi, this is Nils from Tenerife.

I'm excited to start my very first camino - let's see what it will bring! 😍 For me, this journey is very much like an inwardly guided shamanic ceremony, following the synchronocities that every moment and every day will bring.

As I am experienced with fasting, I will feel what my body says and maybe do that while on the camino. Or perhaps I'll do fruit fasting, let's see... For sure I want to go deep into the inner processes, and with fasting this goes so much further.

After not having done much sportive activities in the last months, I did some days of training in the beautiful mountains of Tenerife, with a full and heavy backpack (a water canister helped). So, I feel ready to go. :)

Buen camino!

Have a wonderful journey. Please share all the little synchronicities that find you (or you find them) on The Way. I'm looking forward to reading your Camino.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
I don't understand your drive to do this while fasting, and what that might mean. I do hope that you 'listen to your body' and take sufficient sustenance to stay healthy.
Hi, thank you for your concern. Yes, I will take it slow, really feeling what my body wants.

Thank you for your interest! I wrote my first day's impressions in the LIVE forum (approval needs some time). Most of the synchros are always very personal and just meant for me, so let's see how much I'll share about them...
